Our School Houses 

We have three houses at our school where we take part in houses challenge days to earn points for houses.

Our three houses are hedgehogs, otters and ducks.

GIRFEC

Across our schools, we aim to Getting it right for every child (GIRFEC). This is in line with the GIRFEC policy developed by the Scottish Government. These indicators are; Safe, Healthy, Achieving, Nurtured, Active, Respectful, Responsible and Included.  These have been developed over time across our school community and have become part of our language of learning. Children are encouraged to reflect upon our school vision, values and aims as part of their daily routine to consolidate positive behaviour.

Learner Qualities

Our learner qualities were agreed by children, parents and team members. Our children chose characters for each learner quality and as a school we have spent time demonstrating how to achieve each learner quality. The learner qualities focus are an example of what it takes to be a good learner.
