Good Morning,

In P4/3 this week we have been celebrating Christmas and the winter season. On Wednesday the children chose to create a winter or Christmas themed craft to take home. They painted 4 lollipop sticks in the style of their choice and stuck them together in the shape of a snowflake. On Thursday we wore our Christmas jumpers and had Christmas lunch, the steak pie was especially good. On Friday morning we enjoyed watching The Grinch on Netflix while eating some yummy popcorn.

We all hope everyone enjoys the holidays and comes back to school refreshed.

Mr Gourlay

The Christmas cheer has been well and truly spread in p6 over the last week. On Wednesday, the children all dressed up sharp and got their (competitive) dancing shoes on for their disco. They played corners, musical statues and bumps before having a snack and Christmas video.

Today, each pupil painted a beautiful Christmas decoration for their home. Look how wonderful they are! Some even matched our Christmas jumpers 🙂 I was tempted to take them all home, but I had to resist…

Tomorrow, we will spend our morning getting into the festive spirits as the countdown for Santa’s visit begins (2 weeks?!) by watching a wonderful Christmas film with some obligatory popcorn

Stay safe
