School Photographs

By A Stelling22nd June 2017

Our school photographer will be taking photographs on Thursday 29th June. For organisational purposes, every child will be photographed.   Every child will come home on the day with a selection of small inkjet proofs printed on an order form. These proofs will show the general position and expression but they are just an instant inkjet proof and do not represent the quality of the actual photographs you order. Your photographs will be printed in a professional lab, using professional materials and are of the highest quality.

A consent form is required for family photos only as each child will receive individual proof photographs.

If you wish a family photo to be taken (only children in school, no younger or older siblings) please return the attached slip.  Please note each child in the family needs to bring a slip in to their own teacher. 

If you are willing to spend an hour or two in school to help comb children’s hair prior to them having their photograph taken would you please let your child’s teacher know, any help would be appreciated.   Could you please send a comb or brush with your child’s name on into school on the day of their photograph?

You can order your child’s school photograph online.   Full instructions will be enclosed in the pack you will be provided with.

Please note, the photographer will be in school on this day only.  All children from Nursery to Year 6 will have their photograph taken, including Year 6 Leavers photos.

Here is a link to the letter sent home to all children, please fill out and return if you wish for family photos to be taken.

Christmas Jumper Day/ Christmas Assembly

By A Ogilvie16th December 2016

Our children and staff looked very festive this morning as they came together for the final assembly of 2016.

It was a special occasion for one of our members of staff, who is sadly retiring today too. Children from each year group presented Mr McGuigan with cards. He has been teaching at Mortimer Primary School for 28 years and will be very much missed from our teaching staff.

The message of Christmas

By A Ogilvie13th December 2016

As mentioned in an earlier post, all of our Y5 children have been creating Christmas books retelling the story of the Nativity for reception children, which can be kept as a  special keepsake.

This project takes part over a number of weeks and involves the children meeting each other, learning a little about each other and spending time sharing stories. It is a lovely link between some of our older and younger children and is enjoyed by all.

We have also been so pleased with the feedback from parents, here are just a few of the comments we have received.

“The book created for Finely is lovely – read it tonight and he loves it. It’s a great idea.”

“I absolutely love the book Theo brought home tonight, which had been written by one of the older children! It made me have a little tear. Theo is so happy with it and will treasure it forever. I absolutely love the idea of the older children sharing work and also reading to reception children.”
