Good Morning! So I thought we would celebrate the last House Card Winners of this school year 2020 – 2021 on FANTASTIC FRIDAY!

These names might be the winners this week but let’s remember that every week we have celebrated achievements at Royal Mile Primary School – Well done to everyone who has stayed on green, earned housepoints and received stickers and postcards. Well done to the JASS AWARD winners, whether they have achieved a full award or a just one part (you can finish next year) Well done all of us – through all the changes and challenges of this school year we have remembered to look after ourselves and each other.

Next week we will be celebrating and sharing our special memories from this year! What a year it has been – and we should all feel really, really proud of ourselves and each other!

So to get us started here are the House Card Winners https://youtu.be/cwKcXEJohG8

At last we will find out which class designed the best Worry Monster!

There are the penultimate House Card Certificate winners as well – next Monday is the last chance to hand in any completed cards and recieve your certificate. https://youtu.be/56oTsTGOO-g

Then we will be looking forward to Prize Giving and celebrating the achievements across the school – House Challenge and Class Challenge Cup Winners, House Cup Winners and Mary Whitfield Prize for Citizenship.

There will also be some farewells and some hellos to make as we look to the future and a new school session in August 2021!

Miss Finlayson will also be posting her Be Resilient Assembly today. This will be Skipper’s last outing of the school year. I am sure we will all be looking forward to finding out about his voyages on the River of Life in August.

This week we are celebrating the amazing achievements of our Junior Award Scheme for Schools winners.

Now you may notice a couple of mistakes and I apologise but I just got so excited and so joyful – that I lost my concentration a bit.

MOST importantly- I need to add P7 STAR OF THE WEEK Winona for her amazing focus in drama – her tone, expression and body language were superlative!

This was a wonderful assembly to make and it is evidence of the amazing talenst and skills of our young people, their families and school staff.

It is also great to know we are trailblazing as the school that has everyone from Primary 1 to Primary 7 working on the JASS awards! Go Royal Mile!

What is also really, really impressive is that these awards were achieved during a year of unprecedented challenges. So I think they are even more astonishing and the winners should feel even more proud of their achievements! https://youtu.be/Iwunjelk0YI

Look out for a mini House Card Assembly and the winners of teh House Cup for May – coming soon. This will be the penultimate house cup announcement – the next will be this year’s winners.

I hope you ahve been enjoying the lovely weather! Please take care of yourself, your family and friends as we count down to the end of session! Let’s enjoy these next few weeks!
