Dear Parents and Carers,

• Book Bags: P1, P2 and P3 children have all received their ‘Book Bags’, they were very excited about the selection of the books. One of our parents, Catherine Rayner, is the author of ‘Arlo, the lion who couldn’t sleep’ which is in the P1 Book Bags.
• Sharing the Learning: P3 have been learning about colour tone and they used their knowledge and skills to paint beautiful skylines. They then cut silhouettes of buildings to create city sky lines which are really gorgeous. Una in P3/4 also designed a new cover for her reading book, which is really beautiful. Well done everyone!
• The Eric Liddell Centre have a Children’s Festive Drawing Competition titled Winter Festivities, enter before the 21st November to win the opportunity to turn the lights on at their ‘Light Switch On Event’, a voucher for an Afternoon Tea in Café Connect, along with other lovely prizes. The children’s drawings will all be displayed in the Eric Liddle Centre from the 27th November for everyone to enjoy.
