Due to the school closure our opportunity for families to have their photo taken will be cancelled on Friday 2nd March. We will contact Tempest to see if we can reschedule this date. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.
Sumdog Snow Day Reading Competition for World Book Day
Join us for a whole school Sumdog Snow Day Reading Competition for World Book Day by selecting Reading Snow Day when you log into Sumdog. Your login and password should be in your homework diary.
To be able to take part in the Reading Snow Day competition, if children have not used Sumdog recently they might need to complete the assessment at the top of the login screen first. Once it’s done that then it should be okay to enter the contest.
Good luck!

Primary 2
Good morning little ones and parents too!
I have re-attached our Winter Ready activities to save you scrolling back to previous posts. If you are looking for things to do today, try some of them! Bring anything you have done with you to school :).
I’m really disappointed that I couldn’t get to see your fantastic World Book Week costumes, so if you feel like taking pictures or posting photos on our school pages, I would love to see them!
- Try reading something new today – it could be a new story, information book, leaflet or newspaper!
- We have been reading ‘Matilda’ in class and learning about different types of characters. Miss Honey is a ‘nice’ character and Miss Trunchbull is very definitely a ‘nasty’ character. Try creating your own ‘nice’ and ‘nasty’ characters at home – think about them, draw pictures or make puppets!
- You now have your Sumdog passwords in the front cover of your homework diary. We have been learning to log in on our own, so if you can, try again! Miss McLennan has set up a school contest. Look on the left hand side of the page (when logged in) for a button that says ‘Snow Day’. Click it and click ‘Snow Day competition’. You can only take part in the competition once you have completed the assessment at the top of the log in screen! Play that to unlock your first pet and new games :)!
You can use the blog ‘comment’ section or the school Facebook page to get in touch!
Enjoy your day 🙂 hope to see you soon!

Reading in an Unusual Place
