Our P7s shared some fun activities and games with pupils from the nursery today in their PE lesson. P7s have been working on their leadership skills and the nursery children showed great listening skills.
Well, technology was on our side today and we managed to have a run through of our songs for the end of term assembly. The children have been learning these in class with their teachers and were all in good voice.
HT awards were given out today for a wide variety of reasons. There has been some successful recount writing in P1 this week,listening carefully and producing quality work, achieving success criteria in writing and taking on feedback, being kind and helping out different groups in class, being a super friend and working incredibly hard throughout this year were some of the reasons for awards today
Well done to all our award winners today.
We also shared the success of both our football teams at assembly today. The teams were presented with their certificates for participating in the tournament. As a school we also nominated and voted for a player of the tournament in each team. The winners of these awards were Cameron and Chelsea.
On Wednesday afternoon both our football teams competed in the finals of the Paul Jones Tournament. I am delighted to share that both teams were the overall winners of the tournament. Both teams played extremely well over the course of the tournament and showed dedication and skill in their football. Both teams displayed the school motto of Believe and Achieve. Over the 4 weeks they all displayed exemplary behaviour and sporting attitudes.
Thank you to everyone that helped transport the children each week to the events and for all your support from the side lines.
I couldn’t have been prouder as they went receive their medals and trophies. Congratulations and well done.

We are inviting children who currently have William Heughan Trust Citizenship booklets to bring them in to school be assessed and considered for interim certificates and/or awards at the end of term. Children currently in Primary 1 may have a completed brown one which they were given while they were in nursery. Current P2s and P3s may have a grey one, which will now be either one or two thirds completed and children currently in P5 or P6 may have a yellow one, likewise being either one or two thirds completed. Please send booklets into school FAO Mrs Howie week beginning 17th June. They will be returned to the children to keep at home again, thereafter., to continue completing. Thank you.
New certificates designs shared in HT awards today. Our new certificates have a background sharing the school motto and values. We hope that seeing the school values on a regular basis will help the children remember and apply these to all that they do throughout the school and classes.
Lots of awards this week. Some of the reason were for creative writing, great numeracy ,lots of fab jumping in P.E. Some great team work in P6 this week and achieving whole class targets in writing in P4/5 were also reasons for awards.
