Well, that week flew by and we had a fabulous five days full of focused learning and fun.
I was delighted to see the children in assembly on Monday and took the opportunity to show them our website gallery and remind ourselves of the wonderful activities that we did just before the break and how proud we should be of ourselves.
Mrs Flett also caused a lot of excitement in the P1 to 4 class on Monday this week by bringing in a new Alpine House play set; it has proven very popular with all of the children in their learning and play activities.
Staff training session
Support staff from Glassary and Tayvallich schools had a fantastic day of learning on Friday when they started a training programme with DoBeMindful. The course will help us to develop our understanding of how to support children with regulation and Friday’s session was the starting point of a three year journey for our two schools. You can find out more about DoBeMindful here: https://www.do-bemindful.com/
Education Vision Consultation
You may remember from the update that I sent on 18th December that Argyll and Bute Council Education Service is currently holding a consultation on its vision and strategy:

The Argyll and Bute Parent Council Group is offering parents the chance to share their views on this during a Google Meet session. They will capture feedback during the discussion to feed into the consultation. This is open to all parents, not just Parent Council representatives. You are very much encouraged to participate either through the consultation form (in the link above) or by joining one of the support sessions noted below:
Wednesday 24th January 18:30-19:30https://meet.google.com/rzn-jpzy-iyq?hs=122&authuser=0
Thursday 25th January 13:00-14:00https://meet.google.com/hcg-mnyo-zwd?hs=122&authuser=0
P1 Registration week
P1 Registration week takes place between 15th and 19th January. If you know of any families who have children going into P1 who might benefit from what our wonderful school has to offer, please ask them to look at our website or get in touch so that they can come and have a look round.
Have a great week and you know where I am, if you need anything.
