Primary 6’s Amazing Week of Work

Dear parents/carers,

We would like to share our learning from this week with you. We have had a fantastic week where we have worked hard to demonstrate the school values.

In Numeracy, we have been learning how to find the value of each digit in a 5 or 6 digit number. We have also been extending our knowledge of place value where we participated in various active maths activities such as Place Value Castle and Cards.

In Literacy, we have been exploring our new class novel, The Boy at the Back of the Class and focusing on our different spelling patterns. We have learned about the features of a persuasive piece of writing and taken part in a class game of Countdown.

We have also been introduced to our new piece of writing for this term, which is an exposition. We explored the purpose and audience for this type of text and we are looking forward to getting started.

In PE, we had our first lesson on Volleyball and Badminton with both Miss Walkingshaw and Mrs McConville.

Badminton vs. Volleyball (7 Important Differences) – Volley Expert

In RME, we explored the 5 main religions and beliefs from around the world. Over the coming weeks, Mrs McConville will explore this with us.

I hope you have a lovely weekend and keep safe.

Term 4 P.E. Days

Thank you for your support with school uniform and our new approach to P.E. kit.

We would request that on P.E. days children wear to school:

  • white polo shirt/ t-shirt – with school logo or plain or blue school P.E. t-shirt
  • blue sweatshirt/cardigan – with school logo or plain
  • P7 – black sweatshirt/cardigan
  • plain black tracksuit bottoms/ joggers
  • black trainers
  • girls who are wearing a skirt over their leggings can remove their skirt on P.E. days
  • we would recommend that children don’t wear their shirt and tie on their P.E. days

In order to continue with our inclusive ethos and promoting our school identity we would request that children don’t wear branded clothing. We also have nearly new school polo shirts and sweatshirts that can be purchased for a small donation.

On non P.E. days children should wear their normal school uniform (this does not include tracksuit bottoms, leggings – unless with a skirt or jeans).

  • Primary 1 – Mon/Wed
  • Primary 2/1 – Mon/Friday

Santa Visits PUSCPS!

A very exciting and magical afternoon at PUSCPS as Santa visited our children, from a distance. The children all wished him a Merry Christmas and asked him some questions. He reminded us to go to bed early on Christmas Eve. Thank you Santa for taking time to visit us at this very busy time for you.
