INFORMATION FOR NEW PRIMARY ONE PUPILS        

Writing

We do not expect children to write before they come to school but some are keen to do so. If your child is one of these it would help greatly if you could teach your child exactly as we do in school. The little arrows show the direction the pencil should move and the dot indicates where each letter begins. Please only use a capital for the first letter of your child's name

Will you be able to do these things before September
Take off'/put on your coat and hang it up
Fasten your school bag.
If you want to, you may bring something, to eat at break time; but it must be something you can eat quickly - perhaps a biscuit or .an apple. If you bring a drink to school make sure that the container cannot break. Mummy should not put your juice in your school bag - it might leak on to your books.
Some children have a dinner in school. Can you use a knife and fork? Some children bring sandwiches and some go home for lunch.

Use your handkerchief or tissue

Go to the toilet and wash your hands by yourself. We have paper towels in school.
If you bring money to school it should always be in a sealed envelope with your name class, amount and what it is for written on it.
You will need your name on all your belongings. Then the teacher will know if they get lost or mixed up with your friends' belongings.
You will need a bag to keep your gym shoes in. Perhaps your mummy could make one for you.

Mummy should check your school bag every day. You might bring home a picture or a letter from your teacher.
