Hello everyone.
I hope you are all staying safe and enjoying the snow ⛄️
I wanted to let everyone know that if you had a Talk and Tell session booked for Wednesday or Thursday of this week and have missed it due to the snow storm, that I will be in touch with you next week to rearrange your appointment. You will not miss out on your Talk and Tell time, it will just be at a different time.
Stay safe and warm and I shall see you next week.

Our Amazing Second Eco Flag
We have been working really hard to win our Eco Green Flag. We have put in a lot of effort. Some things that we have done is our eco litter pick rota, always picking up rubbish and putting it in the bin, our 3G litter picks, building habitats for animals in our eco garden, tidying the eco garden and the John Muir garden and design competitions for the garden. Through all this hard work we have earned our second green flag!
A huge congratulations to our Eco Committee!

Primary 2’s week
For this week’s homework we have been making musical instruments using recycled materials (Sarah). We are going to form a band with all our instruments. Miss O’Hara is very impressed with them all!
We have been measuring in metres using a metre stick. We were measuring big things such as the Monkey Bars (Harris R), climbing frame (Lilley), the buckets (Robert), the big red door (Ben) and the wall with the stairs (Kristin).
In gym we are working on our fitness (Hayden). We have been working on: relay racing (Ben), hurdle racing (Kristin), jumping and hopping using both feet (Noah).
There was a problem in our village this week and there was too much rubbish all over the village (Heidi). We had to think of ways to clean it up and stop this problem (Hayden). We were thinking of ways to Reduce, Reuse and Recycle (Zosia).
Tranent Charrette Survey
On Friday the 1st of May there was a presentation of the proposals emerging from the Tranent Town Centre Charrette. The display material is now on show at Tranent Library until the 15th May 2015. There is also a feedback survey available in the library which can be completed and returned at reception.
The exhibition is also available at https://eastlothianconsultations.co.uk/policy-partnerships/planning-for-tranent-town-centre-1 with a link to the on-line version of the feedback survey.
It would be great if you were able to help our community by taking part in the survey and popping in to the library to have a look.
