Primary 1 explored measure, learnt about kitchen safety and celebrated pancake day all in one this morning with some pancake making. Some chose to have them plain while others adopted for traditional toppings. Everyone agreed they tasted delicious!

Gracemount’s Rights Respecting Schools Group meets every second Thursday. As a group we have been talking about and learning all about the rights of the child. Can you spot any of our rights posters around the school ? Did you know you had these rights ?

P1/2 are loving experimenting with the Kapla.
They have also been looking at forces and energy through the topic of Robots. This has also linked nicely with maths and positional and direction language.
Check out the videos in the comments.

Less than a week to go - what’s your child thinking about wearing to school that day. Bring the book too! Remember don’t spend money just use your imagination! It’s great fun guessing!

Remember NOT in school! We allow water during lessons (not juice) for hydration and will confiscate any energy drinks, fizzy juice or these expensive “trendy” drinks by YouTubers! Use Mr Dimeck as the bad guy when your child is trying to pester you to take this stuff to school!
