Hello,
Happy New Year! I hope that you all had an enjoyable time over the holiday. Thank you for all the lovely gifts I received, they were very much appreciated.
Upcoming Events in January
- Scottish Week – In school this week we are celebrating Scottish Week, including all things Scottish! This will lead up to a poetry recital. Pupils will be asked to read, learn and recite a Scots poem; either by Robert Burns or a contemporary Scottish poet. Two pupils will be chosen to recite their poem at a special assembly on Friday 24th January.
- Skiing – The pupils in P6 are attending Hillend Ski centre, starting on Wednesday 22nd January. For those pupils wishing to still attend, please return the consent forms provided at the end of last term along with payment ASAP.
- Indoor Athletics Competition – Some pupils in P6 have been selected to compete in Athletics on Tuesday 14th January. It is reminded that the consent forms and payment must be returned to school in order to attend.
Homework
Spellings have been set for Friday 10th January. These are in the red homework jotters.
On Wednesday, a choice of Scottish poem will be sent home to learn and then recite in class. Props and acting as part of the recital are welcomed!
