We have had a number of special events this term, such as The Pilmuir Picnic and The P1 Water Fight. Here are some photos.
We worked hard to learn the “Jerusalema Dance” and the songs, “You’ve got a friend in me” and “Reach for the stars”. It was a special afternoon, the children enjoying having their families there to share the experience.
Here is a Sway of photos and clips.

On Friday 9th June Primary 1 visited the Tolbooth, or the Town Clock, as lots of people know it. Some parents also came with us. We enjoyed it very much. We toured around the building, seeing the cells and Courtroom. The cells were quite scary.
K said, “I liked the torture room. It had no bed and no light. ”
K2 said, “I liked the creepy bucket.”
P said, “I liked the jail.”
We also had the chance to go outside and walk along the outdoor viewing platform. It is so high up! One group stood right under a clock face as it chimed for 2 o’clock. Thankfully, it wasn’t too loud.
Many thanks to Mr Alexander and the other volunteers of Forres Heritage Trust https://forresheritage.co.uk/ for making our visit so interesting and enjoyable. A big thank you to the parents who came along with us.
Here are some photos.

What a busy term it has been. We have had Hallowe’en, Diwali, Bonfire Night and Christmas.
After a couple of years where there’s been very few opportunities to include the rest of the community, things have changed. We have enjoyed a number of activities with people coming into school, namely: a Disco, shared learning where parents visited classrooms, a Snow White pantomime and the Coffee Morning.
We also visited St Laurence Church for a Christmas service, inviting parents to join us. Yes, it has been great having so many events this term.
Here are some photos from our shared learning with parents and grandparents. It was a Decoration Afternoon. If you would like to view the Sway then you will need your child’s glow login details.

It’s such a big, important step, starting school. Our new P1s have done really well settling in. When we asked them at the end of the first day if they were going to come back, most children thought that they would give school another go. One or 2 were not so sure. 😁 But, come back they did.
Here is a Sway of the first week. You will need your child’s Glow login details to view the material. Below, are some photos from the second week.
