Road Safety Awareness – Reminder

Please be aware that the ‘School Streets’ scheme is in operation at Camstradden Primary. The scheme closes a series of identified roads, listed below, to moving traffic between the hours of 8.30am and 9.15am and 2.30pm and 3.15pm. This scheme is to ensure the safety of children and families traveling to and from school.

Residents and blue badge holders are exempt, so there may be a small number of vehicles traveling within the zone during restricted times. Prominent signs have been erected in these areas to advise drivers of the restrictions.

Any unauthorised person found driving a vehicle within the temporary pedestrian/cycle zone during restricted hours will be subject to a minimum fine of £50 issued by Police Scotland.

Streets included in the zone at Camstradden Primary are –

  • Summerhill Road (after junction with Northmuir to Pitmully Road, taking in Summerhill Drive to junction with Summerhill Place)

Chinese New Year in Primary 1!

This term, Primary one have been learning about Chinese New Year.  We have been learning about Chinese symbols and what they represent.  We had a go at writing our names using Chinese symbols using fine paint brushes and black paint.  We worked alongside primary 5 to create lucky money wallets and shared a delicious snack of prawn crackers and fried rice.

Children have been enjoying exploring our new role play restaurant ‘The Golden Star’.  This links to ‘developing the young workforce’.  Children have enjoyed being the manager of the restaurant, waiter/waitress, cleaner, cashier and customer.  They have learned about handling money, communicating with others and writing orders.

What’s new in P7

We have finished our topic on Diversity which included learning on neurodiverse conditions such as ADHD, Dyslexia and Autism as well as learning about racism, apartheid and Nelson Mandela.
We launched our new topic in style by visiting the World War II exhibit about wartime Glasgow at the People’s Palace.
The worlds of Science and Art collided this week when we learned about the circulatory system and then used clay to sculpt a 3D model of the human heart. We will continue to look at body systems throughout this term.
In Maths, we are moving on from mental calculations and problem-solving using addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Our new area of learning is geometry and we are getting to grips with triangles, protractors and compasses.
We had our first lesson with our Celtic football coach on Monday which was great fun – we decided that Rae had been player of the day. We are also looking forward to learning more Ultimate Frisbee with Mrs Nolan.
We would like to thank Mr Meehan and Mrs Drummond for joining us on our school trip.
