Check out the pictures below of some of the activities the classes participated in during the Big Walk and Wheel.

Each class completed a daily survey recording the number of pupils who took part in active travel each day.

Primary 6 took part in  an air pollution survey, making recommendations on how to improve air pollution in their local community.

Primary 5 completed mindfulness travel bingo, highlighting the many reasons they love being outside.

Primary 3 designed their own items of cycling clothing, discussing the importance of using bright colours while out cycling. 

Primary 3/4 were learning all about what active travel is. See below for the posters they made about the benefits of active travel.

Thank you to everyone who entered the JRSO cycling competition. 

Our winners will be revealed soon.

We hope you all enjoyed the Big Walk and Wheel.

JRSO’s.

New blog pages have been created for each of the classes from Primary 1 to Primary 7. These will replace the current class pages that are presently on the school blog.

The new blogs  will become live after the Easter break.

The blogs can be found by clicking on the name of your child’s class.

The teachers will show the children where to access their new class blog, which will be used for all home/school communication by the class teacher. All homework notes will be put on the class blog.

Please find below a Powerpoint Presentation to help support parents/carers support their child’s reading at home. There are two versions:

Version 1:  A Powerpoint with no narration. Click on the link below:
