Primary 6 Class Charter

During our first week in Primary 6 we worked on ‘Building Our Community’. This is where we were reminded of school routines, expectations and standards, alongside getting to know our new teacher.

As part of this we created our Class Charter which displays our understanding of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) which applies to all children. We recapped about ‘Rights Holders’ and ‘Duty Bearers’ which we then added to our charter.

We worked as a class to pick UNCRC rights that we felt were most important to us and  matched our shared vision for this year.

Our shared vision for this year is displayed in our classroom.

Blog Post – Primary 6

Today we took part in various activities to show our support of Children in Need.

We learned about the history of Children in Need through a literacy based task, which provided us with the knowledge to create a quiz for our classmates and adults at home.

During our smart start, we were given the opportunity to create a t-shirt in support of Children in Need where we were able to show our creativity.

We took part in a Dance-a-thon alongside Primary 7 pupils using our outdoor area. We enjoyed showing off our dance moves. We were lucky enough to have our very own judge helping us score some of the dances too!

Another fantastic week of learning in Primary 6, topped off with some fun to help an amazing charity!

Well done!

Head Teacher Update

Dear Parent/Carer,

I am writing to update you on the progress of recruiting a Head Teacher for PUSCPS. I am delighted to inform you that Mrs Joanne Kerr, currently Head Teacher at Seafield Primary, will take up the seconded Head Teacher post on Monday 26th April 2021. Mrs Kerr comes with a wealth of teaching and leadership experience. I am sure you will all make her feel very welcome.

Although I will support the smooth transition of the new management team, my last day as Head Teacher at PUSPCS will be on Friday 23rd April 2021.

I would like to thank you for all of your support, for challenging my thinking, and for your words of encouragement along the way during my time at PUSCPS. You have taught me about the power of community, working in partnership through communication and building relationships, to get it right for our children. We have been through so much together! Snow days to a world pandemic; happiness and laughs to times of great sadness; new staff to retirements. So many significant events on our journey have happened in the last 3 ½ years.

A wise colleague once said to me, your leadership is only as strong as the legacy you leave behind. I hope that what I leave behind at PUSCPS is that our children should always be championed by the adults around them, and that they deserve the best school experience as making memories matters. We all know that l love our school colours and a video, too! 🙂

Our memories are our greatest treasure, and I have loved making memories with you, our staff, but mostly our children. The children of PUSCPS will always hold a special place in my heart.

I wish Team PUSCPS the best of luck in the next part of your journey.

Kind regards,

Miss Burton

 

Spring Holidays

Dear parent/ carer,
It is hard to believe it is the end of term 3 and our Easter holidays are here. It has been another unsettling time for some, with us starting the year in lockdown but I know we are now all glad to be back at school, finding some kind of normality.
Thank you for your continued support during remote learning and supporting your child with their transition back to school, we really appreciate it.
We recently had some Spring fundraising with our dress down day raising £90, Spring booklets £45.15 and our raffle £300! Thank you to everyone who organised the events and to those who donated – this is a fantastic amount of money for our school funds.
Mrs Barclay joined us this week as Acting Principal Teacher and she has already been a great asset to our team.
We look forward to welcoming our primary children back on 19th April and our nursery children back on 6th April.
I hope you have a lovely Spring break and that we have some good weather!
Kind regards,
Miss Burton
