Milton Primary SchoolPrimary 6/7 took a break from rehearsals this morning to meet Sienna & Courtney’s new puppy. (Mrs Sinclair tried hard to take him home but she wasn’t allowed!)
“A dog is just not for Christmas”
“We had a quick chat about responsibilities after an early morning visit from Dozer the Rottweiler this morning”
“He is so cute”
A fab 14-2 win for Milton FC today when they played Newmore Primary. Well done all! League results will be published very soon and Jake will be presenting the shield to the winning school.
That was the last game of the season, next stop soccer 7’s before the league begins again in Term 4.
A huge thank you to all of the dedicated parents who came along to show their support at games, helped with transport, setting up pitches and stepping in to referree games at very short notice.
Many thanks to those who were able to wear tartan today! The children heard all about the history behind this special day this morning from Mrs Sinclair. Then we had the pleasure of Owen parading around the school surprising the children with his superb piping. Thank you Owen 😊
Many thanks to those of you who were able to attend our craft afternoon today. We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did. It really was lovely to have some early festive spirit in the school. Photos of you busy at work will be posted next week. Please look out for a questionnaire coming your way. We’d like some feedback so as we can continually improve our practice and as always your views are very much appreciated.
Today we had a ‘mini library opening’ where Lhayla from P6/7 was invited to officially declare the library open. She also had the privilege of turning on the Christmas lights too. 
Have a lovely weekend everyone, don’t forget to check your calendars for next week! Lots going on including flu vaccinations, wearing Tartan for St Andrews Day and the parent council Christmas Craft Fayre (fliers sent home with the children yesterday).
Tomorrow is our annual Christmas craft afternoon. All parents and guardians are welcome to come to school at 1.30pm to join their children for an afternoon of fun. We ask that you report to the main reception door where a member of staff will sign you in and then direct you accordingly.
Tea and coffee will be provided following the craft afternoon in the canteen where parents will be welcome to enjoy a cuppa until their child(ren) have been dismissed by their class teacher from the back door as normal.
Do Soccer is also ON tomorrow. 3.00-3.45 for P1-3, 3.45-4.30 for P4-7.
P6/7 took part in the first cross country race of the season last week at Aldie Burn. What a fantastic start: Aaron 9th, Owen 8th and Felix 5th. Well done everyone 👍
It was lovely to see so many pupils wearing spots for Pudsey today at Milton. We had an array of different spots from facepaints to ears to homemade t-shirts to official merchandise. Many thanks to those who were able to contribute to our donation pot- the children raised £69.32 with some staff still to contribute on Monday. Have a lovely weekend 😊
27 shoe boxes have been safely delivered to Blythswood. What a wonderful effort, well done everyone who supported the appeal. You have helped to make someone very happy this Christmas. Thank you to our Milton Shining Stars ⭐️🌟💫
This Tuesday the children enjoyed a workshop with Aigas Field Centre. The ladies that were leading the workshops sent Mrs Sinclair a very kind email afterwards. She is feeling very proud of everyone…
All 4 classes visited the Challenger 4 bus today. The children heard stories about Mary Slessor, The Lost Sheep and Eric Liddell to name a few. They had a fantastic time on board this purpose built bus which travels the length and breadth of the country teaching children about the Christian faith. The children said “the bus is cool”, “I love the big tv screen and surround sound”, “they even have fancy lights”. It is fair to say they were very impressed!
