Familiar faces, a familiar song, different lyrics. Join in with the Birkie Singalong!

Birkie Bulletin – February 2019 from Birkhill Primary School on Vimeo.

Mrs Jenkins, our P6 teacher, applied to introduce a ‘classroom of the future’ at Birkhill Primary School. She was successful in her application bid and got not only new technology for the school but also new furniture to help pupils with focus and concentration. P6 may have the chance to sit on yoga balls and wobbly stools in the near future!

Last term, the P6 class did a topic on technology and had the opportunity to visit Sky Academy Skills Studios in Livingston. The pupils took on a variety of roles to create their own news broadcast about technology within the classroom.

Following their visit, P6 also had the chance to learn about coding. They are looking forward to seeing how the classroom may change as new things are introduced.

A team of P7s from Birkhill Primary had so much fun participating in the annual Monifieth Fun In Athletics competition. Our team performed really well in the track and field events and came in second place overall. We would like to thank Jo Whaite (our Active Schools Co-ordinator) for helping to organise the event. We’d also like to thank the team of Dundee & Angus College students for overseeing the events and demonstrating the different skills for us each time.
