Our Reconnect children are aiming to achieve their very own JAS award. We want to say a huge thank you to the parents who attended our showcase and who continue to support our learners in their achievements towards their JAS award.

Primary 2/3, 3/4 and 4 had a brilliant day at the Museum of Rural Life. We saw lots of farm animals including lovely baby calves, piglets, horses and highland cows. We spent some time looking at the different machinery once used around the farms. Most excitingly we got to make and taste our own butter. We had so much fun!

Both schools had a brilliant assembly this week celebrating Robert Burns and all things Scotland. We had a whole school quiz on Scots language, we sang Scottish songs with enthusiasm and enjoyed the poetry recitals from our amazing finalists. Huge well done to our winners!

This week, both schools had a visit from PC Drummond to learn more about the role of the Police and keeping us safe. P1,2 and 3 learned about what police do, different resources and modes of transport they use to keep our community and others safe.  Primary 4-7 learned more about the importance of being safe online and hate crime. We all took away an important message and want to thank PC Drummond for coming in to our school to see us.

What a final week of exciting festive activities. Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from all of the staff at Letham and Riverside Primary School!
