Dear Parents/Carer,

Weather reports continue to have a yellow warning until Monday and snow showers are forecast  beyond that.

The children’s safety is paramount to us. With conditions as they are and consideration being given to the expected pupil experience, we have unfortunately had to make the difficult decision to postpone our trip to Lendrick Muir.

We have been in constant communication with the Lendrick Muir Centre over the past few days and are aware that they would need to adjust our programme if we were able to attend. The children may not be able to take part in the activities that we had booked. Alternative activites offered included snowman building and bread making. Although these would hopefully be activities that the children would enjoy it would have been disappointing not to be able to go gorge walking, king swing, archery etc.

We are currently looking for an alternative location later on in the term.

We have also been in contact with the bus company and have taken into consideration their recommendations about not travelling.

Please apologise to your child/children on our behalf.

Morning Everybody. We hope that you managed to have some good World Book Day fun in the snow yesterday. Of course you can still take part in the activities suggested yesterday but if you are looking for something else here are a few suggestions. Remember to stay safe and warm in the snow!

Miss Mackay and Mr Thompson.

Topic:

• In P4 we have been learning all about the vikings and where they come from, the cold countries of the east like Denmark, Sweden and Norway. Just like where our weather is coming from now! You could do some research about how the vikings would have kept themselves and their families warm and compare it to what you and your family are doing.

Numeracy:

• Practise the timetables that you are happy with and challenge yourself to learn a new one. You can use the top marks site we use in class to play the tables games, halves and doubles. www.topmarks.com

Literacy:

• Write an imaginative snow day story. Maybe your snowman could come to life and you go on an adventure together.
• Watch newround and write a report on something you found interesting.
• Keep writing your snow day diary to share when we come back to school.
• Read for pleasure or listen to an audio book.

I saw this and thought of everyone! I hope you are all staying safe in the snow and remember if you do go out to wrap up very VERY warm!  Mrs Kinnear

Snow day activities. 

P2G assembly has been cancelled.  We will get a new date for it when we are all back in school.  Click on the link to load the file to get some snow day activities.  Make sure you enjoy your time in the snow as well.. Looking forward to hearing what everyone got up to next week.  Bring in some photos to show!

Lots of suggested activities have already been posted on the blog for you to choose from. With our assembly being not far away at all, please continue to go over lines and song words in preparation for this. Some detailed drawings of fruit and veg would also be fantastic, the bigger the better for display purposes!

Our 2 main songs to learn which have already been introduced can be found at the following links:

Thank you for all of your hard work P5! Keep up the good work!

Mrs Morris 🙂
