Hi all,

The weather is sadly getting horrible and wet as winter appears,  can I please remind everyone that children should come to school with a waterproof jacket.

A little late reminder but children had their flu jabs (nasal spray) this morning.

P7 will be doing the remembrance assembly this Friday and are selling poppies this week to all classes. A donation of 50p per poppy would be greatly appreciated.

Homework for the week:

Reading: Pages to be read have been written in your child’s green reading record.

Spelling: We are continuing with short vowels this week, so the spelling list contains words with short vowels.

I hope you all had a lovely weekend,

Miss Lauren Waller (L.Waller@mgfl.net)

Hi all,

I hope everyone is fully rested after camp last week. Camp was a great success overall. New friends were made and many fears were challenged and overcome.  I plan to create a PowerPoint of photos which will be shown or shared soon. It was difficult to get photos of everyone from Loanhead as we only had a couple of our own children in our activity groups each day. Hopefully, I can pool together photos from other leaders that were there.

Here is the schedule for the week:

Monday:

  • Flu Vaccinations
  • P7 Digital Wellbeing Workshop – discussing online safety. Can children bring their phones please as part of this workshop may look at privacy settings.

Tuesday:

PE

Wednesday:

PE

Friday:

P7 Remembrance Assembly – 11am sharp. Parents are welcome to attend but please arrive 5-10 minutes early to be seated. Part of this assembly will be presented by two lovely ladies from Bravehound, a charity which trains dogs as companion and assistance pets for veterans suffering from PTSD. We will have a donation bucket at the door for this charity.

Some children will have lines/poems/song lyrics home to practise for the assembly so I will not give out any other homework this week.

Scottish Poppy Appeal– P7 have two boxes of poppies to sell this week. We suggest a minimum donation of 50p and one poppy per child to begin with so that everyone gets a chance to buy one in school.

Independent Study Task – Children have chosen which area of World War 2 they would like to research independently. I will send home more specific information on this soon.

 

Thanks for your support,

Miss S Brunt

Hi all,

The Halloween disco is on Thursday evening, 6:30pm – 7:30pm. Tickets are £2 and children can purchase these during school time. 

Homework:

Reading: The pages to be read are in your child’s green reading record. Some groups have been sent home with a list of key words for their reading stage too. Please ensure that you help your child in learning these as it will improve their fluency and confidence when reading.

Spelling: We are learning the short vowel sounds this week (a,e,i,o,u) in words like bag, sun etc. The spelling list contains some words with these sounds and days of the week. We are learning cursive handwriting so it would be great to see the children practising this in their homework.

*******It has been super busy in school since the October holidays that Miss Waller’s forgetfulness has gotten a little worse! At the Learning Trio’s I spoke to many parents regarding sending resources/extra work home to support their child to achieve their targets. However, I have realised that I have not done this yet and some of the things I had discussed, I have lost the note of them. Please do email me or speak to me at the end of the day if you were meant to have received something from me and have not yet – L.Waller@mgfl.net ********

Thank you,

Miss Lauren Waller
