Our incredible Rotary Club took part in a cluster quiz at Peel Primary School today. Mrs Gurney accompanied the group and she was extremely impressed with their general knowledge, teamwork and overall sportsmanship! A huge well done to the boys and they brought home the bronze plaque to-boot! We are so proud!! What an achievement! Watch out Mastermind…Joshua, Ross, Brennus and Harris are coming to get you! đđđđ
We are so very proud of our OUTSTANDING Glee Club who ââTried Everythingâ and Took on the Worldâ at Howden Park Centre tonight! We could see every single smile, hear every single voice and last but not least we could feel your passion and enthusiasm! No trophy lifted but youâre certainly winners to all of us at Toronto! Â Well done everyone and thank you to our amazing families who always turn out and support us! Your enthusiasm and encouragement was, and always is, so very appreciated! Well done to all other schools involved (Peel, Addiewell, Southdale and ofcourse, triumphant winners, St.Ninians RC school – West Lothian has talent in abundance! đ Thank you Mr Platt, Ms Muir, Mrs Steel and Noriko for everything!
To celebrate World Book Day in Thursday, we would like to ask everyone to bring in a book from home that they are finished reading and wouldnât mind swapping with someone else in school. Books should be in very good condition. Children can send in more than one book and our aim is that all children in our school get to swap a book and leave with another. This was hugely successful 2 years ago and we are really hoping for the same thing again this year. Please send books in tomorrow or Wednesday in preparation for World Book Day on Thursday.  Please note: there is no need to dress up this year. Our goal is not to spend money on costumes but to promote a love for reading. This doesnât mmmm not apply to nursery children as they are launching Big Bedtime Read on Thursday instead. Thank you in advance.
Today at our whole school assembly we enjoyed celebrating the achievements of many of our children from across our school when they were recognised for effort, manners and for helping others.
We were treated to a glimpse of our Glee Club performance which was outstanding! Thank you to Mrs Steel, Ms Muir, Mr Platt and Noriko our dance teacher, for helping us get ready for next weekâs big performance! Make sure you remember your props for rehearsals this week everyone.
Mr Graham reminded us all of the basics of Building Learning Power with a little help from some volunteers who showed perseverance, collaboration and lots of effort! Weâre looking forward to working more on mini BLP sessions over the next few weeks.
Primary 4 children shared their World Book Day challenge with everyone. They have been busy creating posters asking if everyone could bring a book in to swap and keep on Thursday. Please note, there is not a necessity for children to dress up on Thursday for World Book Day – weâd just love you to bring in a preloved book for swapping đđđđ
This week we came together as a whole school community for our weekly assembly to discuss the importance of spreading positive vibes through the medium of cheery bananas! Â Each class received a special positive message written on a banana and their challenge this week is to fulfill some of these positivity challenges, for example, brighten someoneâs day with a smile, believe in yourself and youâre halfway there and ofcourse the favourite – put on your positive pants! đ
We would like to thank our wonderful Eco team, clean team, litter pickers and battery collectors along with Mrs Wong, Miss Galloway and Ms Muir who have helped us sustain our prestigious Green Flag award!
We celebrated this achievement at our school community assembly yesterday and we were very impressed to receive our 6th green flag! Well done everyone!!
At Toronto PS our children always impress us and make us proud…today was a goosebump kind of day, as together, we celebrated the life and times of the great Robert Burns.
Liam from P5 kicked the whole thing off by piping each class into Assembly where our House and Vice Captains presented poetry winners from across the school with wonderful certificates.
We managed to catch a few on video…we hope you enjoy listening as much as we did! Â Follow the next few posts for all of the fun!
We were feeling extremely humbled in Nursery today when Alison from the charity Maryâs Meals came in to collect a cheque for an incredible ÂŁ80.38!
As part of our recent work on citizenship, Nursery staff decided that instead of accepting Christmas gifts from our lovely families, this year that we would ask them to forget the gifts for us and to try to contribute 25p so that we could raise ÂŁ13.90 to feed a child for a year in a developing country. Maryâs Meals offered to double whatever we Managed to raise. Our amazing Nursery parents loved this idea and blew our target out of the water! We raised ÂŁ80.38 which, once doubled by Maryâs Meals, will feed 12 children for a whole year! We canât believe it! We are so grateful to have the most incredible children and families in our Nursery!
Alison, the representative from Maryâs Meals, was overjoyed to be invited in to speak with the children and she said that she had never heard of any other Nursery doing such a lovely charitable act in this way. Stuart from The Courier caught professional snaps and these photos will hopefully be published in The Courier next week or the following week.

Thank you again to our thoughtful families – we are overjoyed! Remember – no Christmas gifts! #familyengagement #citizenship @marysmeals
Primary 4 loved creating wonderful posters to raise awareness of the effects of Road Safety. During their walk last week they took photos of the school and used them in their work! We think they are amazing! Well done Primary 4!
   
  
Fundraising events help us to demonstrate what it means to be a good citizen. We know we are raising money to help others and provide valuable resources for communities.  Tomorrow we are supporting Children in Need and Breast Cancer Awareness.
We thank all our families for their very generous donations, there is a lovely range of home baking to be enjoyed with a cup of tea or coffee. We look forward to giving all our visitors a very warm Toronto welcome.
