Dress Down Day

img_2327

 

Yes Spongebob. Yes it is.

Tomorrow is the last Friday of the month. By long-standing tradition this is “Dress-Down Day” at PUSCPS. Children may wear non-uniform but no football colours or strips.

Dress-Down Day usually involves pupils bringing a small donation to charity. Often £1. This helps pupils learn the importance of thinking of others before ourselves. A hugely important part of learning to be a responsible citizen of the world.

We select charities based on pupil interest and suggestions from home. If there is a charity particularly close to your heart you would like to nominate, please let us know. Last year we supported a pregnancy charity, an Alzheimer’s charity and Jak’s Den because of suggestions from our community. We regularly support our partner school in Magale, Uganda.

Tomorrow’s Dress-Down Day is just for fun no donation is required.

many thanks,

Steven Eagleson

Online Learning Journals

2014-logo-cropped

Our nursery and P1 Online Learning Journals are now live.  You have received information on how to log in.

We hope you enjoy sharing your child’s learning through these journals and login regularly to view, share and discuss what your child is learning and the progress they are making.

We especially like comments from home being added to build a fuller picture of your child’s learning and life.

If you are having difficulty accessing the Journals please speak to your child’s teacher or Miss Morrison at school.

We will be providing further information in a few weeks to be sure that everyone is comfortable using the system.

Primary 4 working together

Primary 4 have been working very hard in groups and today we demonstrated how much we can get done when we work as a group.  The children had limited time to complete their posters and they had to work together and focus on the task if they wanted to complete it.

Unfortunately there were a few people absent today but all the children have been involved in this task.  They have done some fabulous research and have displayed their information in the form of posters.  Well done P4.

P6 Class Trip – Jacobites in Edinburgh

P6 had a great time on their class trip to Edinburgh this week. They learnt lots about what life as a Jacobite would have been like and even created their own Jacobite shelters. All the children behaved really well and were congratulated on this by the trip leader. Mrs Cullum was very proud of how they represented the school, both in their behaviour and in how they demonstrated their learning. Well done P6!

Please complete the Parent Council’s short survey

PUSCPS Parent Council Logo

Hello parents / carers.
Members of the Parent Council (PC) are currently considering how we can improve the effectiveness and impact of the PC. We recognise that there is much that can be achieved when we work together with the school and parents, and we want to build on this. To do this, we need a clear work plan and to create opportunities for, and support parent involvement. So, we’ve put together a questionnaire to gather your views – which we hope will give us some direction and a sense of how parents would like to be involved. It should take no more than 5 minutes to complete.  You can access the survey here: https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/PUCPSParentSurvey
If you would prefer to receive a paper copy of the survey to complete, please request a copy via email.
Once we have received your answers, we’ll let you know the priorities we’ll be focussing on throughout the school year and the next steps for your chosen level of involvement.
Thank you in advance for completing the survey.
Best wishes from
“The Parent Council”
