A place for news, information and sharing learning from PUSCPS
This afternoon families and friends from P1, 2 and 3 joined us to receive their book bags and find out how they could use them at home. The children took part in a range of activities with their families, from writing stories, to crafting, learning to play new games and reading.

Thank you to everyone who attended the session.
This week P1 have started to create art for the hall. Each class is making art to match a part of the song, ’12 Days of Christmas’.
P1m have made a pear tree and a christmas partridge.
P1s began by creating the 5 gold rings.
We have learned some new diagraphs this week – ch and sh – that is when two letters together make a new sound.
In maths we have been adding telling the time on analogues and digital clocks.
We have been very busy rehearsing for our nativity and have started to write invitations. Lots of us have important homework to learn our lines for the performance – keep practising.
There was lots of excitement in the infant department today as P1 received their Bookbug Bags from their P7 buddy’s. They looked through the bags together and P7 read them some stories.
P4 gifted P3, and P6 gifted P2 with their Read, Write, Count Bags. They explored the bags together and even found some games to play.
The P1-3 children will take their bags home tomorrow, and we have invited parents, carers and families along at 2:30pm on Tuesday to look through the bags with their child.

As Golden Time is an important part of our school ethos, the House and Vice Captains decided they would like to consult with the whole school on what is working and what might need changed. We used our Pumphie Pals time today to explore what it might look like in the New Year. Our House and Vice Captains will now meet to collate this information.

We had a special visitor in from the SSPCA today. Primary 1 – 3 got together in the P2 classroom to hear all about the work that the SSPCA do and how we can help animals in need.
We found out about a pigeon called Percy who needed help from the SSPCA after he got covered in oil. Everyone was able to share their ideas about what Percy would have needed to make him better.
We learned that if we find an animal in need we can phone the SSPCA for help but we shouldn’t touch the animal ourselves.
