Taynuilt Primary School and ELC
The life and learning of a village school in the west of Scotland
8 children from across the school spent the day working with Mr Elkerton to bring their SHANARRI superheroes to life.
The children from the ELC are going to get to know the superheroes after the holidays when they investigate lots of different ways to keep themselves safe and well. Stay tuned for updates as they happen.

Archie is one of our new P1s. His Mum is from Germany and she helped him to prepare a traditional German treat for his new classmates, they celebrated just like they do when children start school in Germany.

Primary 1-3 have been making their visitors centre as part of their topic this term. They have had great fun designing and building the centre over the past few weeks. They have been writing about the staff the centre would need, including writing job adverts for them and have designed a staff uniform. They are currently busy planing the grand opening ceremony!

P4-7 worked together yesterday afternoon with a den building competition – teams had limited resources which they had to trade each other for, learning how to utilise resources, negotiate and communicate as a team to build a successful den which every member of the team had to be able to fit inside!
P5/4 have been working with Kilchrenan primary school over this last term, and today spent the day at Kilchrenan working with them to learn sampling techniques in the Kilchrenan grounds looking at biodiversity.
In the afternoon they had an absolutely fantastic American football taster session with coach William Humphries, learning how to throw an American football and how to run ‘routes’. A huge thank you to William, and to Allan Wright and Gillian Walker for making this happen.
P5/4 have been working on playscripts this term, looking at the play ‘Twelfth Night’ by Shakespeare. To show what they have learned about performance, interpreting characters and stage directions, they put their hard work on display during a visit to Kilchrenan today and brought the house down 👏
