Good morning to our Nursery buddies and grown-ups!
There has been much excitement in the P6 Team this morning as they have finally found out who their nursery buddy will be! They are really looking forward to meeting them properly.
For a Health & Wellbeing task this week, P6 were asked to post responses to common questions that nursery children (or grown-ups) might have about starting school. They have worked so hard on this!
I have collated their responses into a video (link posted below). We hope you find it useful.

Happy World Autism Awareness Day!
This week is World Autism Awareness Week! Below is a link to a video entitled ‘What is Autism?’, which you can also find on the Scottish Autism website.
The symbol which is now more commonly associated with autism is a rainbow-coloured infinity symbol. This is to show that the autism spectrum is not linear, and that while some individuals have difficulties in some areas, they are (sometimes exceptionally) talented in others.
We usually celebrate this as a school, but due to the current circumstances, it is a little more difficult. To mark it, I’ve made my own version of the symbol for the autism spectrum, which is now stuck on my living-room window!
If you happen to be celebrating World Autism Awareness Day in any way (e.g. dressing in rainbow colours, posting signs in windows, sharing links/videos), please let us know! You can share with us on Twitter, as part of your child’s learning wall or using Microsoft Teams.

‘Autism is my superpower.’ (a fantastic quote I saw on someone’s t-shirt a few years ago).
Many thanks!
Below is the a table for the learning for this week for P4-7. These are the core learning activities from your teachers. Miss Burton may also post additional learning opportunities – these are optional. Please remember to go on Sumdog to complete the challenges set by your teacher as they are part of your learning for the week. Have a great week.
