Scots Week 23rd -26th January at Royal Mile Primary School

Scots Week will be taking place at Royal Mile Primary School this week 23rd – 26th January to celebrate the Scottish Poet Robert Burns’ birthday and our Scottish literature, dance, art and song. In class we will be taking part in Scottish dancing, singing Scots songs, looking at Scottish writing and listening to the Scots language.

At the end of the week we hope that parents/carers can visit our Scottish Week show case starting at 11.30am. Where P1- 4 will be showing their Scottish themed activities in their classrooms and P5-7 will be Showcasing their Scottish dancing, drama and singing in the PE hall.

To share this great week of activities we have attached the songs, stories and poems that we are going to have access to in class. Please enjoy and come along for the banter on Friday!

Primary 7 Homework

Dear Primary 7 families and pupils,

Primary 7 are starting a new homework routine, with a focus on numeracy this term. In line with this, they have a new blue homework jotter in a plastic folder.

Each week they will be expected to complete:

  • A numeracy/maths task related to their work in class.
  • A mental maths task from the grid glued on the first page (please colour/tick/highlight as you go)
  • A reading task relating either to a class novel, reading book or non fiction text.

The folder should come into school every day as we will be completing our soft start spelling tasks in it as well.

Homework can be finished in Soft Start in the morning and if you are struggling, this would be a good time to ask for support from myself and Mr Barratt. There are multiple options (Mild, Spicy, Hot) and if you feel something is too hard or too easy, please let me know.

Homework is due on Fridays, when we will go through the maths. Homework is issued on a Monday.

If anything is not clear or if you have any concerns, please contact me through the office.

Kind regards,

Mrs Harrison
