Tollcross is an amazing school. Welcoming and kind, respectful and safe. I don’t want to leave.

Tollcross is an amazing school. Welcoming and kind, respectful and safe. I don’t want to leave.

We are very excited that it is almost book week at Tollcross and we have lots of events planned to celebrate reading. On Thursday 5th of March everyone is invited to dress up as their favourite book character. We will be parading around the playground at 9.15am and you are welcome to join us for this.
On Tuesday 3rd of March there will be a family costume making session after school at 3.30pm in the P7 classroom where you can use art resources to create a costume to wear on the Thursday.

A very warm welcome to our new PE teacher, Veronica Clapton. We are looking forward to working with you 😊

Thank you to all of our lovely staff for setting up the play corridor this afternoon. All set up for Monday 😊

Sharing a Pom Pom moment 🥳


We started our new Counts topic today, Combining and Partitioning numbers.
This will focus on building up and breaking down numbers, highlighting the place value of each digit.
This video may help explain:
We are using the language Hundreds, Tens and Ones ( rather than units)
E.g. H T O
4 3 2 this number has 4 hundreds (400), 3 tens (30) and 2 ones (2)
Some games you could play at home:
Enjoy!

Lovely to see all of the numeracy learning about Place Value today after our launch of the new Tollcross Counts Topic.
Well done Tollcross Number legends!
Lovely to see everyone who came along to the first of our ‘coorie-in’ sessions yesterday. The ‘coorie-in’ will run every Tuesday from 3.30-4pm in the library. We would love to see you there!


Great to work with the lovely Alice Brown at the Columba 1400 Leadership Academy this week 😊
Ms Brand and Miss Chadwick have enjoyed taking part in the Columba 1400 leadership academy in Ardoch, Loch Lomond this week. Columba 1400 has provided an opportunity to work with colleagues in different local authorities and focus on values, collaboration and leadership. We also had the pleasure of working with the lovely Alice Brown 😊
