World Book Day: Dress As A Character
David Goutcher Author Visit!
As part of our World Book Week celebrations, David Goutcher the author of the Spy Quest books shared his journey of becoming an author with P4-7. He shared his inspiring story of how ‘Positive understanding supports confident personal success’ and how it is important to persevere in order to achieve your dreams.
He amazed us by demonstrating how his Sky Quest books use augmented reality through an app to transform the reading experience.
Those children who wanted to purchase a book got a signed copy. We have bought some of these books for our P4-7 class libraries and we have a few signed copies at the office for those of you who would still like to purchase one, on a first come, first served basis (costing £6.99).
A big thank you to David for coming along to share his story with us, and also to Glowworm Books. Thank you also to Brodie’s mum for helping to organise this event.
Fun Time Friday
On Friday 9th and Friday 16th, is it Fun Time Friday in the children’s classes. They have the option of bringing something in from home but they do so at their own risk and no digital devices such as tablets, phones, etc should be brought in school.
Tempest Family Photos Re-Scheduled
The family photos that were scheduled for Friday 2nd March have now been rescheduled to Friday 23rd March. Your previous time will remain the same. If you would like to be added to the list please contact Mrs Thom.
This will be a dress down day to raise funds for Magale, it will therefore be your decision if children come to school in their uniform and then change into causal clothes, or you might decide to have their photo in casual clothes.

Arrangements for Tuesday 6th March
Good afternoon all,
On Tuesday breakfast club will open as normal at 8:10am.
If you are not attending breakfast club, safe arrivals will begin at 8:30am. All pupils should enter through the main school entrance, as close to 8:50am as possible.
Please take care when using the turning circle, as there are limited drop off spaces.
The main footpath to the school entrance is clear.
We will operate the same pick up arrangements as today:
- P6/7 to exit from the side gate at 3:15pm.
- P1-5 will exit the school from the front entrance, we will begin a staggered collection beginning with P1 at 3pm.
- P4-7 Multi sports afterschool club will run as usual.
Please ensure children wear appropriate warm clothing for outdoors, as if it is an indoor break and lunch time, children will still have an opportunity to go outside during the school day.
The nursery will open at normal times with breakfast available.
Kind regards,
Miss Burton
