HOUSE POINTS – TERM 1 WINNERS

We are delighted to announce that Ben More were our winning house in Term 1 and have earned themselves a super house prize. They achieved this by working together to earn the most house points across Term 1. On Friday 15th November, from 1.30-2.30pm, all children in Ben More will be involved in an afternoon of exciting outdoor activities hosted by the wonderful Donald from Wildside Nature. The afternoon will include the toasting of marshmallows, funs games and hot chocolate. Each child can bring one adult family member along with them to share in this experience. We kindly ask that children come to school dressed for outdoor learning on this day. Given the unpredictable Scottish weather we advise that a waterproof jacket, appropriate outdoor shoes, a hat and gloves are worn. Well done Ben More. We look forward to celebrating with you soon!

This week in Primary 7b

This week in Primary 7b we loved being outdoors with Donald from Wildside Nature for a Halloween themed workshop.


We have been working hard in maths on multiplication and division and are demonstrating great recall of knowledge from last year.


We have started exploring film literacy and how we can use our reading strategies to help us understand what’s going on. We will be continuing this next week looking at different filming techniques and how they are used to impact the viewer.

We had our final week of swimming and had great fun having some free time in the pool to practice our skills.

We have enjoyed learning more about Poppy Scotland and using the iPads to create a digital brochure of information about what we have been learning.

The school had a very special visitor this week and P7b’s How Good Is Our Classroom floor book was chosen for him to see. He was very impressed with the input the children have given on how we can make our classroom better.

We have been working very hard this week to complete our Scottish National Standardized Assement’s (SNSA) for reading, writing and numeracy.

We have started exploring a new writing genre of Report writing and will be continuing this over the next few weeks.

Lots of pupils indicated in their personal target setting they wanted to improve their overall fitness. This week we did a baseline fitness assessment and at the end of term we will do another to see how much we have improved.

We have started learning about Poppy Scotland and why it is still so relevant today.
