The Nursery classes have been learning about Burns and celebrating Burns.
They have also been learning about Nocturnal and daytime animals.
They have been in the woods quite alot trying to find some traces of nocternal animals. Also they have been doing lots of crafts and painting about the subject and in the small hall you can see the childrens paintings of hedgehogs and other nocturnal animals.
A drumming club is starting up in the school. It will run on Tuesday lunchtimes. It is open to P6 and P7s.

The p2’s yesterday did a wonderful assembly for p2 parents and the whole school.
In school as the class novel p2a have been reading “The Owl who wasAfraid of the Dark”. The book is about an owl who is afraid of the dark but has a series of meetings with different people. They tell him that dark is exciting, kind, fun, necessary, fascinating, wonderful and beautiful. In assembly the p2s told us that they had been learning how to make a summary of a book. They had also been making posters about nocturnal (really good) and firework displays made with chalk pastels and glitter (Absolutely Amazing!!!!)
Everybody spoke clearly and loudly. It was a very good performance – well done!

The ALEC bus is back at school this week, and all classes are going to visit. Younger children will be looking forward to seeing Harold the Giraffe again and learning how he has been.
Classes will be learning about their bodies, about physical and emotional health and about making healthy choices.
There has been a great response to the lunchtime walking group, organised by Active Sports. Sixty pupils wanted to take part, so many that the walking group has had to be split into two groups. One group will walk every Wednesday from now until the Easter break and the second group will walk after Easter up to the summer holidays.
The first group enjoyed their first walk yesterday, walking down the Avenue, past the castle and back up to school. Everyone enjoyed the fresh air, the change of scene and the chance to have a chat to friends.
There is a wall in the Large Hall that has a display of certificates to award pupils that have achieved things in and out of school e.g joined Beavers/Cubs/Scouts/Rainbows/Brownies/Guides, completed a musical exam and lots more.
The wall is nearly full with achievements!

New pupils have started in the nursery this term. There are ten new children in the morning class , while the afternoon class have got seven new children. The children that were there before the new children started they came up with an idea to welcome the new children. In the garden they made a swing on a tree , put seats in the corner of the garden and a mini slide for the new pupils to enjoy..
