Wishing all our families a happy new year and a very successful 2026!  We have a long and busy term of learning ahead (13 weeks!).   Our whole school Scots Poetry focus will kick off this week alongside our interdisciplinary learning theme of “Peace and Conflict”.  Each class’s learning overviews will be shared with you next week.

During the holidays Mrs Deacon and her husband welcomed a beautiful baby girl.  Miss Sangster has now taken up post as full-time P5/6 class teacher.

Please ensure children attend school with a coat every day.  We try to go outside at break and lunch daily regardless of the weather.
