Leave a comment

Starting week commencing 14th January 2018  we will be introducing a more convenient way to pay for school meals, trips, after school clubs and much more online, using a secure service called ParentPay. 

ParentPay will be live at school on 14th January 2018 from this date we will be working towards no longer accepting cash and cheque payments, making the school a cash-free environment.  Parents who need to continue making payments by cash or cheque may do so for now, please follow link for more information.

P5/6 and P6/7 visit to United Auctions

Leave a comment

Today we went to United Auctions in Stirling, to learn all about farming.

We visited a range of different stalls including ‘eggtastic’ eggs, lif eof chicks with the Coop, bees, food assurance, cereals, muesli,transport, animals, food miles and dairy.

🍎 🥩 🐣 🥚 🐄


At each stall we learned about the importance of farming in these different areas, the jobs connected to them and the different skills and interests required for different roles.

🐝 🍯✈ 🚛

Our last stop was a trip to the auction mart, where we bid on the different animals that we had met earlier in the day.

Deerpark hadthe highest bid for the geese and the Pigmy Goats. 🐐
We participated, listened well and gave positive feedback about our experience, when we returned to school.

P5/6 & P6/7 Visit to Forth Bridges Education Centre

Leave a comment

Primary 5/6 and 6/7 enjoyed a visit to the Forth Bridges Education Centre Exhibition Area in South Queensferry.

We enjoyed finding out about the Forth Bridges and Engineering from Elaine, the Civil Engineer who was our guide for the morning.

Then we all took part in an engineering workshop challenge to build the tallest structure we could using small wooden blocks. We had a fabulous time and learned a great many things throughout the day.

Our team building, leadership, planning and organisational skills were excellent, with everyone working well in their teams and each group produced impressive stuctures!

We ended our visit with a stroll accross the Forth Road Bridge.

Author Visit – Stuart Reid

Leave a comment

The whole school enjoyed Stuart Reid’s very energetic and engaging book reading assembly last week.

Stuart Reid Assembly

They learned a lot about what inspires his stories and about techniques that they can use in their own story writing (onomatopoeia, alliteration, ellipsis, visualisation).
Everyone was engrossed from start to finish.

After the school event, both P5/6 and P6/7 enjoyed workshops lead by Stuart.


He talked to them about how to be successful in writing.
Both classes will hopefully put some of his ideas and suggestions into practise.
