Primary 6/7 delighted us all with a catwalk show of their wonderfully unique designs made from recycled plastic bin bags. The show was the result of a very interesting class topic about clothes. It was amazing to see the range of designs created by our pupils. Mrs Burn talked us through the design processes behind each unique item or collection. Here are just a few of the pictures.
Primary 4 /5 created these Scottish landscape pictures with tissue paper and the thistle drawings were created with chalk pastels. 
The children in P2/3 thoroughly enjoyed their Fairyland topic this term and were so excited by all the visits from the Friendly Dragon. They asked if they could dress up as characters from fairytales to celebrate the end of the topic and brought in fairytales from home to share in class – thank you for the effort put in at home to make this happen. Here are some pictures of work from our topic and our dress up day on Tuesday.
We are so proud of our Primary 3 singers who have been off to share their festive cheer in the local community recently at Dalbeattie Day Centre and at Munches and Alma Care Homes. Today, in school they performed for us! What a lovely treat to put us all in the Christmas mood….
Today, we came to school wearing our Christmas jumpers to raise money for Save The Children. At the time of posting, the exact amount is not known exactly but is thought to be over £140.
All children may not be in the photos as some may have been busy elsewhere when pictures were taken……Here is a taste, however, of the huge variety of jumpers which were on display.
We may not have had much snow but our pupils showed determination in scooping up enough snow to make the first snowman in our new school.
The displays around our new Nursery and Primary School are looking amazing. These displays certainly show case the skills and talents of our learners.
P6-S1 pupils were given a super presentation today from the South West of Scotland Piping and Drumming Academy. They were informed about the opportunities available to them should they wish to take up piping or drumming in the near future.
P4 and P4/5 took part in a photo competition as part of their class learning about Dumfries and Galloway this term. The children had to take a creative photograph anywhere in Dumfries and Galloway. Mr Phil McMenemy, a well know local photographer came into school today to judge the competition. Well done to all the pupils who entered photographs.
Primary 7 put on a terrific leavers show, ‘Just Like Yesterday.’ The children had gathered their memories of their journey from nursery through to Primary 7. There were some sad stories but mostly they were happy and funny ones. Some highlights included re-enacting a bus trip and the stresses of sports day. Miss Clenndinning was delighted with the performance, especially as the children had had so little time to learn a set of new songs so soon after they had worked with Scottish Opera.
