On Monday 14^th June Scotland will play their first match in the Euros 2021 tournament against Czech Republic. As a school, we would like to support their achievement of qualifying for the Euros.  To celebrate this, we are inviting all children (and staff) to wear blue and white for the day. Scotland football tops/Scotland football strips may also be worn for one day only. Classes will be tuning in to watch the first half of the match at 2pm. The learning around the Euros tournament and history of the Scottish football team is something that many classes have been taking part in this term through our ‘Going for Gold’ theme. The children suggested that we support a charity as part of our celebration day and have chosen Children 1^st, which has a partnership with the Scottish Football Association. A link to donate can be found below. https://www.children1st.org.uk/donate/

A reminder that all jewellery, especially earrings, must be removed for PE and hair should be tied back, in order to participate fully in the lesson.

Loirston Primary School Parent Council have organised a Virtual Balloon Race ie a race that is online. The launch is Monday 7th June and the race will end on Friday 11th June. 

You could buy a balloon for yourself, a family member, a friend, a teacher, a pet or just for fun. You can track your balloon and even run a mini-competition within your own house. Each class will also have a class balloon which they will track in school.

Virtual balloons cost £3 for one balloon or £2.50 each for multiple balloons. Buy as many as you like – the more you have, the higher your chance of winning the race!

🚨Please note that there is a 36p per transaction (not per balloon) fee which will be deducted from the money we raise, so please purchase your balloons in one transaction. 🚨
