Primary 7 have spent time planting lots of different plants. We are using our new grow box to experiment with different growing conditions.

We look forward to see all the different plants which will grow successfully!

Today in primary 6/7 we had a special visit,  from Kieran from the HALO trust.  HALO trust is a worldwide organisation which specialise in landmines.  Kieran came in to inform the class more on what the organisation does worldwide and brought in equipment to show the class.  As a class we really enjoyed this and it was great to have someone who is an expert teaching us about this topic.

All classes from P5- P7 had a visit from the NHS today. They were trained in how to administer CPR. This is an invaluable skill which could be needed one day.

Primary 6 were taking part in CPR training.   NHS staff came in to share with us how to administer CPR correctly and also showed us how to  help someone who is choking.

The weather was kind to us on Sports Day. Here are some photographs from the day.

Primary 7 had a visit from a Fire Safety Officer.

We discussed hazards in the home and how to remain safe.

We also discussed how to remain safe in the community and the importance of staying away from derelict buildings.

The Young Digital Leaders ran an exciting after school Coding Club for Primary 4 children.

Each week the Digital Leaders led different activities for the Primary 4 children to investigate.

They worked with Micro;bits, Mice, Botleys, Make Code and Lego Spike.

All of the children had fun and developed their Coding Skills.

Primary 6 pupils attended Dumfries High School on Friday 10th May to take part in a crime scene investigation day. They took part in experiments to solve the clues to identify the thief and who stole the chocolate.
