HAPPY NEW YEAR!

It was a busy first day back after the holidays here in Primary 3!  After we shared all our holiday news with the rest of the class, we started to make some New Year Resolutions.  We have been reflecting about what we enjoyed about 2015 and what we are looking forward to in 2016.  At the moment, we have been thinking of resolutions that will help us achieve personal targets, such as learning to swim, learning to do stunts on a BMX bike and being a good friend.  Soon, we will start to think about achievement in school and set ourselves a new target for Literacy, Numeracy and Health and Wellbeing to work towards this term.

We also had a lot of fun in a Nycos session this afternoon with Mrs Poynter.  We enjoyed a “Play and Sing” session, which gave us a taste of what happens in these workshops.  We will be coming home with a leaflet to provide more information of local classes that Nycos will be running as part of the Youth Music Initiative.

We also received some very special letters today – from Katie Morag!!  During our topic last term we wrote to Katie Morag with lots of questions and she was obviously very busy replying to us all.  We each opened and read our letters today – sharing some of the answers we had been waiting for.  We have been reflecting on our Katie Morag topic and checking if we have learned everything we hoped to at the beginning of the topic.

It was such a busy and exciting first day back!
