‘Snow White’ performance for Early Level Pupils

The ‘Busby Family’ saved the day on Friday as the planned performance of ‘Snow White’ was called off at very late notice.   Miss Lawson and P2/3 sang “When I Grow Up” from Matilda and Mrs McLean and Primary 4 performed a selection of Christmas songs.  Miss Cairnie led a storytelling session, ably assisted by P4 pupils.

Well done and thank you to all who performed for the Nursery parents and pupils.  ‘Snow White’ has been rescheduled for Friday 9th December at 10.45am.  Nursery parents are welcome to join us for the performance.

This week as part of Finance Week, our P5 and P6 pupils are participating in the Profitable Pound Challenge, where they have to try to create a market and maximise their profits!

At break and lunchtimes there will be the opportunity for other pupils to purchase items from their “shops”, should your child wish to bring some money to school with them.

Primary 1 Active and Healthy Workshop

Today, our Pupil Sports Leaders, presented to the P1 parents a variety of different games, sports and activities that they could try out with their children.  The session started with a presentation from our Active Schools Co-ordinator, Lesley Birrell Palmer and our PE Specialist Laura Kerr.  There was the a practical workshop outdoors in the playground, where all P1 pupils loved participating with the adults.
