A place for news, information and sharing learning from PUSCPS
As part of our Modern Languages focus last week, Primary 1/2 were learning how to speak Polish.
One of our P2 pupils Tatiana is from Poland and she was a great teacher, helping the class to learn the Polish words for yes/no, hello/goodbye and cat/dog. Thank you Tatiana!
Here are the award winners on stage at the end of P3’s assembly this week. Well done everyone for your hard work and perseverance in your learning.
On behalf of the school I contacted our friends at école St Jacques in Roussillon to let them know we held a minute of silence for the people of France.
The teacher replied to thank us. Â She says they too are thinking about the terrible events and the children are asking lots of questions.
They will be in touch again soon.

Primary 4 are fantastic French speakers, as well as English! So, this week, for our Modern Languages focus, Miss McLaughlin decided to challenge them to learn some German!
We learned how to say hello/goodbye and introduce ourselves.
We focused on learning German names for pets, to match what we had been learning in French lessons. We found that there were some similarities between English, German and French words. Did you know ‘hamster’ is the same in all three languages?
We made flashcards to teach a friend or partner about pets. We are looking forward to sharing our learning with Primary 5 on Tuesday!
Deutsch ist toll!
Auf Wiedersehen! Bis Bald!

We will be holding a minute silence at 11am to pay our respects to the tragic victims of this weekend’s devastating attacks in Paris.
Here are the stars of yesterday’s assembly- Primary 7. Â They shared what they had learned about World War 2 and told the story of two children who were evacuated to safety. Â Thank you for helping us to mark the season of remembrance Primary 7. The picture shows the cast at the end of the show.
Please note that children will not be dressing up for Children in Need this week. Â We will have a dress up day as usual on the last Friday of the month and this money will be for Children in Need. Â The theme will be onesies/pyjamas.
We have been learning the skills of futsal, which is similar to football but the ball is smaller. Â It is very popular in Brazil. Here are some pictures of us showing our skills.
Well done to everyone who earned an award at assembly today!
We are proud of you for working hard at your learning.
We hope everyone enjoys Bonfire night and remembers to stay safe.
It is cold, wet and damp and only going to get colder, wetter and damper over the coming months.  It is vital that pupils are sent to school appropriately dressed for the weather each day.  At this time of year we expect all pupils to have sensible footwear – (not little pumps or canvas shoes) and a warm, waterproof jacket every day.
Many thanks for your support in keeping your children safe and healthy.
