Winter Wreaths
The outdoor club have made a fantastic job of creating winter wreaths to take home for loved ones. The pupils in the club collected Willow branches, wove the branches into a ring and then used a variety of winter foliage to create their beautiful wreaths.
P5 Democracy Videos
P5 used iMovie to create videos introducing the ministers for their political parties.

Thinking Back Looking Forward Pupil Profiles – P2-P7
Today pupils in P2 – P7Â will bring home their THINKING BACK LOOKING FORWARDÂ profile for this term. Â Â This is a profile of what your child sees as their progress in learning so far this session and also includes a summary of the pupils’ current strengths and next steps from the class teacher. Â Pupils in nursery and P1 will have learning to share through the Online Learning Journals system.
This is a new approach to reporting to parents for us this term and – as discussed in September’s newsletter – it forms a part of our FAMILIES LEARNING TOGETHER – SHARING LEARNING programme which we are developing this session.
We hope you find these new mid-year profiles more useful that the old-format final report in June. Â Please bring your copy along to your appointment on Wednesday or Thursday evening and you can discuss it with the teacher then. Â All pupils took home an appointment slip for parent appointments on Friday – if you don’t have yours – please call the office.

Â The overviews for this term below were sent home in September with each child. Â You can check them here and download a copy of your child’s plan. Â This can help frame a discussion with your child on what they are learning and where they are finding success or challenges.

Friday 7 October 11am – Families Learning Together – Session 1
Next Friday is our first Families Learning Together – Sharing Learning session. Â This is for pupils in P2 to P7. Â Anyone from home is welcome to come along and share the pupil’s learning. Â Please ensure the reply slip is completed and returned so we know who is coming – for security. Â The invite below is downloadable from the link – has been emailed – and is in each child’s bag.
If necessary – a simple note to the class teacher on whom to expect will be sufficient.  We look forward to seeing you then and are all very excited at building on our programme of developing home engagement with learning.
