Christmas Wishes

A huge thank you to all parents, carers, grandparents and friends who came along to sing some Christmas songs with the nursery, P1, P2 and P2/3 this morning and who made it to our Christmas Assembly we hope you are now feeling very festive!
The staff at Pencaitland wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and we look forward to welcoming the children back on Tuesday 11th January 2011.

Practice Makes Perfect

Can you remember how difficult it was practising an instrument on your own and feeling that you were never going to improve?

Can you help with Recorder practice at Pencaitland Primary School?We would like to support the recorder lessons that are being taught in P4 to P7 and we would you like your help. Could you spare an hour every month or so to help small groups of children with recorder practice? You don’t need to be a good player, just be available to help a group organise their practice time and progress. Our music specialist, Mrs Peebles, is happy to give tips and advice to get us started.

If you are able to help with practice, either at lunchtimes or after school, please return the form [PDF] or e-mail the following information to the school office, or speak to Dorothy Ogilvy or any members of the Parent Council.
