Over the past few weeks the Primary 1 and 2 children have been transforming their classrooms in to Fairyland.
They have been working hard with Mr Parkhouse in art and as you can see from these photos their finished work looks amazing! 🤩

"A COMMUNITY OF FAITH AND LEARNING THAT VALUES EVERYONE FOR WHO THEY ARE AND WHAT THEY BRING."
P7 have had a busy day today – half the class got to work with Active Schools on their play leaders course, this is where they learn leadership skills that they will put into action later in the year. The other half will complete their session next week. This afternoon we had a hockey refresher session and quickly remembered the skills from the end of P6 and got straight to playing games against each other!
Primary 7 children have been very busy preparing speeches for the posts of House and Vice Captain. The children recorded their speeches and these were posted on Teams for P5,6 & 7 to vote on who they thought would best representative their house for this session.
All the children who took part did a super job and it was terrific to hear how confident they have all become.
Here are photos of the children who were voted in to our Captaincy Team for 2021/22:
Representatives from P4-7 met with Mrs Davidson and Mr Valentine for our first Pupil Council meeting of the session. On the agenda was reviewing our current school values and suggesting possible new ones.
The children also discussed ways we would be able to promote these values within our school community.
Here are the P4 & 5 children busy round the meeting table:
The IBike Crew had their first meeting of the session this week. This was a planning meeting for the term ahead and the children shared lots of imaginative ideas of how they could encourage people to walk, cycle or scoot to school.
Watch this space as an exciting competition will be coming your way soon!
Today Primary 3 were working on their emotion words. The children watched a short animation about a young girl who found some bubbles. They then decided to have a play with bubbles to see how it made them feel. Afterwards the children came up with some super words such as …….delighted, excited, relaxed, wonderful and cheerful!
Primary 7 have been busy since returning to school. We have been fitness instructors at PE and putting each other through a workout and have been enjoying time in the forest playing games and creating portraits. We have been writing our house Captain speeches and presented them yesterday. A great start to the year P7, what a busy bunch!
The beginning of a new month saw another busy day in St Andrew’s, Primary 2 were being very creative with their spelling this morning with car park spelling, building towers and an amazing wheel of sounds!
Primary 4 were out in the woods this afternoon using natural materials to create numbers and show their understanding of place value.
Primary 5 had a fitness session in the MUGA – what a great way to enjoy the sunshine.
Primary 6 have some lovely art work on display inspired by Jean Michel Basquait.
