Mrs Cathcart, along with the staff and pupils, extends a very warm welcome to Largs Primary School.
At Largs Primary, our goal is to provide every child with the highest quality education in a nurturing and safe environment. We strive to create a positive culture where everyone takes ownership of their learning, treats others with respect, and values one another as individuals.
We aim to achieve this by:
- Offering stimulating, creative, and relevant learning experiences that ensure continuity, progression, and challenge for all learners.
- Setting high standards and expectations so that every pupil can achieve their full potential.
- Engaging with local, national, and global initiatives to strengthen our awareness and responsibility towards the wider world.
- Creating opportunities for staff and pupils to lead learning and take on responsibility.
- Promoting inclusion and celebrating diversity in an environment where everyone feels safe, valued, and welcome.
- Ensuring strong leadership and effective management so the school can operate successfully, making the best use of our accommodation and resources.
Our work is underpinned by the values we live by every day:
Kindness – Responsibility – Respect – Honesty – Courage
We are incredibly proud of our school community and hope that you and your child will feel the same. We look forward to welcoming you to Largs Primary School.

Home Learning
Today’s challenge has been set by P3 teacher Miss McCready.
A Selfie in Isolation!
We are currently living through a unique moment in history! We’re experiencing lockdown, home-schooling, coming together as a community and a whole new bunch of emotions too! Self-isolation and the situation we are in will have its ups and downs. Let’s give ourselves something to look back on by taking a ‘selfie in isolation!’. You can complete it as a family or on your own – it’s your choice! Stay safe. Stay together. Stay at home.

DAILY CHALLENGE
During her daily walk Miss Rawley saw some beautiful cherry blossom trees and thought that today you could get arty and produce your own picture of a blossom tree. Use pens, pencils, paint or any media you like. She looks forward to seeing lots of lovely pretty pink trees.
You won’t be surprised that Miss Turner has set you a musical challenge today. She’d like you to make a musical instrument using any items you can find around the house. It must be able to make at least TWO different pitched sounds. To take it even further, can you play a short piece of music on your instrument?
Our P2 teacher, Mrs Thomson, would like you to start the week with a smile. She’d like you to make a recording (audio or video) to send your class a message. This should include a joke to make them smile. These can be posted on Teams, blogs, email or Twitter.
Thank You to everyone who posted on the Digital Learning Blog last week– brilliant bloggers!!
I would like more posts this week – you can tell everyone about your Home Learning activities or simply use it like a Diary and tell us what you’ve been up to. It has been great to read about your Easter holiday.
I’m also going to ask you to share some of the amazing examples of Digital Learning that you have been creating to me at gw14hollandtracy or post them on your class Team for me. I have been very impressed with thePowerPoints, Word Documents and Sways that I have been sent. I want everyone in our Largs Primary Family to see how brilliant you all are so get sharing!
Why don’t you Blog today’s Daily Challenge?
I have given all pupils and staff the chance to create posts on the Digital Learning Blog. This means that we can all see what each other is thinking/doing even if we’re in different classes. I thought we could start by adding a post about our Easter Holiday – I have also created a Glow Blog Help sheet which I will put under your files tab on Teams on also on the Website/Digital Learning Pages. So what are you waiting for? Head on over and join me on the Blog.
