Book Week Scotland 2019
Repost: Children in Need 2019
On Friday 15th November, we are having a Children in Need fundraising morning.
To raise money we will be:
- Dressing up or dressing down for a donation. Why not dress up in yellow or in spots like Pudsey?
- Having a ’Guess the Baby Teacher’ competition. Pupils can try to correctly match the baby pictures to teacher’s name for the chance to win a prize. Each entry will cost 50p.
- Holding a bake sale in the dining hall. We would be very grateful for any parent/carer baking donations. Please hand any donations into the office and list the ingredients used for those with allergies.
Thank you for your support.
Dress Down Day
A reminder that Friday 1st November is a dress down day. We would request if children decided to dress down that they make a donation. The house and vice captains have decided that the money raised will be used by classes to select resources for Together Time.
Please no football colours or crop tops.
Calder Movie Afternoon
Calder were the term 1 house points winners. Summer and Kyle surveyed the children in Calder to find out what they would like their treat to be and they selected a movie afternoon. They then did a survey to find out which movie and they picked Nanny McPhee. We also picked juice, popcorn and ice lollies for refreshments and dressed in our pjs. We had a fun, relaxing afternoon with our house buddies! Thank you to Kyle, Summer and the P7 Young Leaders for helping to organise and set up the party.
Congratulations Calder!

Children had to the opportunity to share their progress in their jotters and their targets. This will also support conversations at our  Parent Appointments next week. Thank you to everyone who joined us and our P7 Young Leaders who ran the event.
