Fri 1st April – Last day of Term.  Mrs. Miller retires.

The Daily Mile has been in the news over the last year, with many schools taking on this initiative.  We have been aware of the benefits of short periods of regular exercise for pupils for some time and have discussed how we could implement this at David Livingstone.

Some classes have started going outside to walk and run more regularly.  Children in these classes may ask their parents to make sure they have appropriate footwear and outdoor wear so that they can go outside in all weathers.

At times this may replace some of the timetabled PE sessions.

Well done to the P5 and P6 pupils who attended the athletics event at the sports centre today.  They are getting better each time we attend and performing well against other schools.

Happy New Year to everyone at DLMPS.

Golden Time clubs will be starting this Friday for P3 to P7 children.  P5, P6 and P7 are currently choosing for a 5 week block. P3 and P4 children will be starting the first of their four 3 week blocks.

Primary 1 children performed their ‘Born in a Barn’ Nativity on Thursday 18th December. Primary 2 children supported them by being a ‘Choir of Angles and Stars’.  Parents, family members and friends came and thoroughly enjoyed watching the children in this annual festive delight!  Many of the family and friends commented appreciatively about the hard work of the pupils, teachers and support staff.  Well done to all involved for another great show!
