Head Teacher’s Awards

Leave a comment

Today, on the last day of term we were pleased to present Head Teacher’s Awards to more successful role models and successful learners. Well done all! Two children, Sofia and Leah were also recognised for their effort in fundraising for our sponsored walk. The school has now raised over £2400 which is a super amount and a significant amount of this was raised by these two girls.  However, our thanks go to all our young people  who worked so hard to help raise this excellent amount, which will help with future school trips and other resources. Many children were also recognised for their participation in a  recent Sumdog competition.

P5D Teambuilding Skills

Leave a comment

Primary 5 pupils developed their teambuilding skills during the Cross the Swamp challenge. Each team had to use their problem solving skills and communication skills to travel across the swamp without falling off their pathway. Mrs Dyson was pleased to see how well the teams worked together to discover the most effective way of moving. Pupils continued to use positive language to encourage and support their team members. Well done everyone!

Harvest Assembly and House Captains

1 Comment

Today we held our harvest Assembly, albeit made shorter by an unplanned fire evacuation! We were delighted to welcome Reverend Fiona Wilson to our service. The children had brought in lots of donations for the foodbank, for which the local church will be taking away items for us. Mrs Duncan showed us some pictures from our very own harvest in school: ‘soup at snack time’ photos showed our soup made by the eco group ad Mrs Howie with Mrs Houston in the Hospitality Department, made from our own home grown vegetables. Out eco committee and school council also received their badges. Three primary 7 children were awarded with their Head Teacher’s Award certificates (they will not be here on Friday due to Operation Safety) and our Houses Captains were also announced.

Eco Group’s ‘Soup at Snack Time’

Leave a comment

Today we had our ‘Soup at Snack time’ with lentil soup made from our very own home grown vegetables. Back in the spring, we planted potatoes, onions, carrots, beetroot and swede. We harvested the potatoes, onions and carrots for the soup, which the Eco Committee made today with Mrs Houston in the High School’s Hospitality Department. There were so many carrots that Mrs Houston even made some carrot cake buns. We are very grateful to Mrs Houston for all her help and for the generous donations which came in with children. We have raised approximately £50 which will cover our other ingredients such as stock cubes and lentils and the rest will go towards our planting costs next spring!

We had two fantastic sponsored walks today.  The sun shone and we had a great time out round the local woods. Thank you to all parents and family members for joining us today. All funds raised will be shared between classes to support with transport provision for trips.
