Blog Post by Hamish & Isla – Yesterday morning the P1-4 class made some delicious salsa using their home-grown tomatoes! In the middle of June, pupils planted some tomato plants and when we came back from the summer holidays, they were fully grown and had lots of tomatoes on them! So, Mrs Warwick decided to make some yummy salsa with the class! Everyone helped to make it and most of them
This morning the P5-7 class had a visit from some volunteers from MacMillan Cancer Support. This is a short report about their visit! 😊 The volunteers who came to visit were Mr and Mrs McMiken and Mrs Sloan. They told us about the different ways that they have raised money, such as Granny Maeve cycling 1049 miles around Scotland, she is an amazing 85 years old!!! Granny Maeve alone raised £75,000
Hello and a HUGE welcome to session 2023-2024 at Leswalt Primary. So good to see the happy, smiling faces of all staff and pupils this morning – and an extra big welcome to our new P1s! We can’t wait to get started – this year is going to be lots of fun!
How lucky are we? Kaiden and Aria-Rose brought in cupcakes for everyone to have at playtime as an end of term treat. Huge thanks to their family for being so thoughtful – as pupils have enjoyed a number of treats from them over the course of this year and previous ones too. Such generosity is much appreciated! Thank you Kaiden, Aria-Rose and family ❤️

This afternoon, the ever popular Rev. Clare joined us for a chat about life as a minister. This was the final event in our Careers in the Community focus. It was SO good to see her and talk about different aspects of her work (listening, praise, leading, prayer and most importantly…love). She was able to give an insight into the many roles of a minister – the job isn’t just
Today marked the end of Evan’s primary school years as he’s off on holiday next week. But we didn’t want him just to slip out of the door at 3pm, so we had an afternoon of celebration for him! We enjoyed juice, biscuits, sweets and crisps and watched a power point of the cutest photos all about the main man Evan! Have a fabulous holiday Mr S and all the
This morning, pupils at Leswalt Primary participated in an aerobics session with Moray – a gym instructor from the Ryan Centre. Squats, jumps, planks… you name it – they did it! It was a great active sports session and there were a few flushed faces as they headed outside afterwards for break! Thanks Moray!
Today was possibly the most perfect Friday EVER! Why? Because we all went to the beach! When teachers were thinking about where to go for our summer school trip, they came up with the idea of all heading the short bus ride to Sandhead beach. That sounded pretty amazing in itself but there was even more fun to be had as we met and fed farm animals and alpacas at
How lovely it was to welcome Jorgie, James, Cameron and Beathan into P1 this morning – and to say a cheery hello to our brand new P1-4 and P5-7 classes! From measuring our own heights to team games outside; enjoying lunch with new friends to mini den building at the Wetlands – it was a day of cheery faces and smiles. We can’t wait to have you all back again
