Following the recent events surrounding the ‘Black Lives Matter’ movement, we thought it would be beneficial for the children to recap on some of the learning we covered at assemblies during Black History month in January. We covered topics during the whole month and recapped on topics that we had previously covered over the year that linked. At the bottom of the post is our usual ‘Family Discussion’ article.

All P7s will be receiving transition information directly from the Robert Burns Academy. They have been hard at work making transition videos and have posted them on their brand new blog site. Letters should be arriving from the academy with specific instructions about houses etc for the new session.

Please find below a letter regarding the Primary 7/S1 Transition to Robert Burns Academy.

A virtual transition is taking place on TEAMS tomorrow for all of our current Primary 7 pupils. The children will login to the P7/S1 transition TEAM (they are already members) and the secondary teachers from the Robert Burns Academy will join them and talk them through all of the really important parts of transition.

This is a really exciting time for Primary 7s but it can also be an anxious one too. We hope that this will allow the children to be better prepared and perhaps a bit more relaxed about moving on after the summer holidays.

P7 Transition Letter

 

 

Welcome to Move Up Week!

This week is virtual move up week for our new Primary 1s – Primary 7s.

New pages have been made on the blog to allow your child’s/children’s new teacher to introduce themselves and post some fun ‘getting-to-know-you’ activities. The pages all begin with 20.21.

Mrs McKinlay and Miss Morrison have kindly stepped in to help out with the P3/4 class (probationer to be allocated) and the P6 class (vacancy to be filled).

Primary 7 children have been contacted and will be receiving their own transition to secondary.
