In a joint letter, the schools said that they had considered the impact of school closures due to the coronavirus pandemic on the local community. As a result, none of the five schools will use outcomes from GL Entrance Assessment as part of their admissions criteria for the academic year 2021-22.

P6 pupils applying to these schools will not be required to provide a GL Entrance Assessment result.

🌟🌟Recipe Time🌟🌟 . Making pizza is not

🌟🌟Recipe Time🌟🌟
.
Making pizza is not only healthier and more cost effective but it is a great way to spend quality time together!
.
To make the base you will need: 400g plain flour, plus extra to dust
1 x 7g sachet fast action dried yeast
1 tsp fine sea salt
1 tsp caster sugar
2 tbsp olive oil, plus extra to drizzle
1 tbsp cornmeal, polenta or semolina, to roll out
.
Preheat the oven to the hottest it will go (around 240°C, fan 220°C, gas 9), before starting to make the dough. Put in 2 large baking trays, to get really hot. Mix the flour, yeast, salt and sugar together in a mixing bowl. Make a well in the centre and add the oil, then add about 225ml water to bring together as a dough. Tip out onto a floured surface and knead for a minute until smooth. Leave to rest under the upturned bowl while you prepare your pizza toppings. It’s time to shape the pizzas! Roll out one ball at a time on a lightly floured surface, to about 25cm in diameter. Sprinkle a large square of baking paper with the cornmeal (or alternative) then lift the dough onto the paper. Stretch and press the pizza dough with your fingertips until it is about 30cm diameter, indenting a thicker crust around the edges. The middle should be about 5mm, and the crust about 1cm deep. Repeat to make a second pizza. Spread the pizzas with sauce and add your toppings (don’t add too many, or you’ll end up with a soggy pizza). Drizzle with a little oil and leave to rest for 10-15 minutes before baking, so that the dough starts to rise. Slide the pizzas onto the hot baking trays, still on the lining paper to help lift them easily. Bake for 10-15 minutes until the base is golden and crisp

Affirmations are proven methods of self-improvement because of their ability to rewire our brains. Much like exercise, they raise the level of feel-good hormones and push our brains to form new clusters of “positive thought” neurons.
We need to teach this to our children; they absorb everything we tell them. Starting good habits from a young age will carry through to their adult life. 12 Affirmations printed on A6 360 gsm card (will withstand the grubbiest little paws) I have courage & confidence
I can make my dreams come true
