What a fantastic day to be out with some of our P7s undertaking their bikeability level 1 training today. All the children were amazing. They carried out bike and helmet checks. They followed instructions with care and demonstrated a good awareness of cycle control, gliding,stopping,starting and turning. The slow race was a great challenge and they all gave this a great go. Looking forward to progressing to level 2 training next term.
Well done to Oliva who took part in the Scottish Dressage Championships at the weekend and won overall achieving a Scottish title. Olivia was the highest scoring youth rider with 70% in her score. Fantastic achievement.

Thank you all for coming along and cheering. Well done sports captains and vice captains on encouraging your teams. Thanks also to John and Ross from Active Schools and our High School sports leaders.
Here are just a few pictures from our sports this morning. Well done all! It was lovely to see everyone having fun and smiling.
It’s wonderful to see so many of you sharing your wider achievements in school with us. Please remember, to send in your child’s PASS booklet for assessment and to be considered for an award and/ or prize. They are a great way to have wider achievement recognised. Children with grey or yellow booklets will have partially completed booklets and will be considered for interim prizes. (Yellow and Grey booklets take 3 years to complete.) Please send the booklets into school no later than Monday 24th June. They will be returned to your young person afterwards to continue filling them in until complete. For anyone who has lost their booklet and is keen to fill it in, do let us know as we have a few spares. Current P2s and P3s were given grey booklets during their P2 year. Current P5s and P6s were given yellow booklets during their P5 year. Children in nursery were given brown ones and may now have completed them. Some children will still not have booklets as the newly launched booklets have been phased in following reintroduction after Covid. By next year, all children will have a booklet in process. Thank you
We had confident individuals in assembly on Friday. P2/3 presented their save water posters. Well done everyone.
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.
This week, we had our second carousel activity where the new Primary 1s for August, joined in with the current P1s to take part in three different activities, meeting staff and getting used to the classrooms and open areas. The P6 buddies did a great job helping with the board game activity and were super at encouraging the young people to talk about themselves. After the carousel we had our first ‘try out lunch’ experience. Well done all!
