We have been continuing to think about anti-bullying and all parents should now have seen our new anti-bullying policy which is open for consultation.
In assembly we learned about the GIRFEC Wellbeing Indicator of being ‘responsible’ and we tied this into our anti-bullying message. We want to educate all children and adults in the importance of reporting bullying both as a victim and bystander. Bullying can happen to anyone in any school or workplace and we will continue to actively work to prevent it at Springfield.
We had a visit from a lady called Nancy and also Dr MacKenzie, Grandad of Alyth in the nursery and Nairn in P3. These individuals are members of Linlithgow Grange Rotary Club. We are excited to announce our new partnership with Rotary which will take the form of a Roto Kids club. We will give more information on this as we have it. We are really delighted with this new opportunity for our children to engage in global citizenship as well as making a difference to their local community.
Here are some certificate winners from this week:
And some birthday children from our nursery and infant department:
Here are two pupil achievements from this week: Firstly to the lovely H in P2 for her Enjoy-a-Ball success and also to brilliant E in P3 for her swimming certificate. Well done girls!
