Mrs Docherty HWB Positive Song for the Week: 15.6.20

Good morning everyone. Wow, another week begins in lockdown as we move into a new phase of preparation for welcoming back your children in August to our new teaching approach. We cannot do this without looking back and appreciating all you have done for us as a staff team and as your children’s teachers throughout this lockdown and also without saying thank you to the staff team for all they have done.

You as parents have supported us and shown real determination and kindness in what have been remarkable times. You have been with us every step of the way through all the unknown and through all the new approaches we undertook to support you and your children. We would like to say a big thank you to you all and there is no better song to do this and to use as a reflection than:

Leona Lewis: Footprint in the sand.

Please have a listen to the song using the link below and know that we are also here to support you along the way now and into the future as we all return in August

The lyrics for this song below certainly convey our relationships in St Ninian’s as we are fully aware that Relationships Matter!

You walked with me
Footprints in the sand
And helped me understand
Where I’m going

You walked with me
When I was all alone
With so much unknown
Along the way

And I’ll carry you
When you need a friend
You’ll find my footprints in the sand

Have a great day and indeed week everyone knowing that we have been and we continue to be here for each other in this special school.

Mrs Docherty HWB Positive Thought for the Week Kindness: 12.6.20

Good morning everyone. I cannot believe we are at the end of yet another week of learning. I hope you have had a positive week filled with love and laughter and as I always say friendship and kindness.

As linked to our positive song of the Week: Count on Us by Bruno Mars I thought there was no better quote fitting for this week than the quote above. This has most definitely been a two way relationship and all of us has forged and strengthened our unique and special St Ninian’s Relationship.

Kindness and support have also been our key words for this week and indeed every week since the start of lockdown. We as a Team, TEAM ST NINIAN’S have taken every opportunity to demonstrate kindness in order to make a difference to each other’s lives. This is what makes us special and what makes our relationships unique:

Thank you for everything, for your kindness, compassion, understanding and support at this time. Have a wonderful weekend, you all truly deserve it.

Mrs Docherty HWB Key Messages for our Children: Day 3 11.6.20

Key messages for our children

Good morning everyone,

This is our final day of the week for our key messages as tomorrow will be The Positive Thought for The Week. Today’s positive and powerful messages theme is DIRECTION

I have also added a link where you can download the poster as part of the pack over the coming days if you would like to display these.

direction poster

As we are all beginning to look forward and plan for our return to school and seeing each other again I think this is an important message. It will be important to set goals and to take our first steps to achieve this all the while supporting each other along the way.

I know that you are brilliant at goal setting boys and girls as this is a big part of your learning journey in St Ninian’s. You set yourself realistic targets and goals and work hard towards achieving these. It is always great to have our learning conversations about what your goals are, why you are setting them, how you will achieve them and then how well you did.

Maybe in the coming weeks you could set yourself some goals to work towards at home or for planning your return to school. If you have any goals you would like to share please share them in the comments section above or via email. I would love to hear them.

One of my goals will be to make sure I am continuing to take time in my day when we return to normality and that I stop and think about what I am appreciative of and what I have achieved. his is something I have been able to do during lockdown and my goal will be to continue this when lockdown is fully lifted.

What could your goal be?

Have a great day boys and girls and remember to set your goals and follow your dreams.
