P1T

Welcome to Primary 1T’s webpage for the academic year 2018-2019.

Throughout term time, I will post updates including information about what the children are learning, their progress and achievements, with occasional photographs.  I hope that parents will find the information useful, and will use it to support their children, and generate learning discussions at home.

I will regularly use Twitter to share what the class are learning. Tweets can be viewed on this webpage and also by following @Mr_Torrens on Twitter. Posting photos and information for parents will be the sole purpose of this twitter account. If you wish to talk to me directly, please arrange this through the usual channels.

Dates for your Diary

PE Sessions

Your child will receive PE lessons with myself on a Thursday and with Mrs MacKay on a Friday. Named gym bags can be kept in school during each term. They will be sent home to be washed at the end of each term, or whenever else we feel they require to be washed.

The Mystery Reader

As part of The Community School of Auchterarder’s ongoing commitment to increasing pupil engagement with literacy, P1T will be taking part in ‘The Mystery Reader’ program.

Once a week a guest reader will meet the class in the LRC (Learning Resource Centre) and read one of their favourite children’s stories to class.

Sign up letters will be sent out during the first week of term and once dates have been allocated, a list of our guest readers can be found here.
