Joshua is 5 today! He brought in a book that he got from his brother and we read it in class this morning.

Happy Birthday Joshua!

As of this week we will be going to Largs on a Thursday with p2-3 for a block of gymnastics lessons. This means trip uniform should be worn on a Thursday and Friday and NOT a Tuesday.

We are moving onto stage 2 reading books this week so we will take the whole week to do the first book (4 pages a night) and pick up the pace when we are more familiar with the vocabulary.

Today at Funworld we all got a party bag for Halloween! Thank you Shirley!

On Monday school photos will be taken of all pupils. Formal uniform should be worn and please remember to wear your blazer. If you have brothers or sisters up the school you will also get a photo taken with them.

This afternoon we watched a short video called the skeleton dance. We danced along with it and found it really funny!

Our pupil of the week is Ellie. This award is given for super number work this week.

Well done!

During our reading time today we played hide and seek with our new book "Look after me". We had to find different words, phrases and pictures in the book.

This afternoon p1 and 2 were making a rainy day picture. We used cake cases and pipe cleaners to make umbrellas, cotton wool clouds were stuck on and we used cotton buds to paint dots for the rain.

Well done everyone!

Homework tonight is matching numbers with words. We have just started this on Monday in class and are all finding it quite challenging. Please give as much help as necessary with homework tonight.

We have some poppies in school this week. If you would like your child to have one for their blazer please send in some money and we will have a chance to buy them each day this week and next.
