Today we had all the boys and girls who will be starting Lawmuir in August come and visit us. They had lots of fun in class, meeting some friends and even took part in a ‘Shape Treasure Hunt’. Parents enjoyed a cup of tea and a biscuit with Lucy Roy our Parent Support Worker.
Parents were also issued with an Early Numeracy Guide to help prepare for school in August.

I hope that everyone had a lovely Spring Holiday and that you were able to make the most of the good weather. As I visited classes today the children were already hard at work and enjoying sharing their holiday stories with staff.
I’m delighted to be able to tell you that, so far, Literacy Week’s Read-a-thon has raised £689.70. This is a terrific amount of money. Thank you very much to everyone who contributed.
Below are a few dates for your diary. More details for each event will be issued shortly and Class Information Booklets will be sent home later this week. These will also be added to the “Getting Involved In Our School” section of this site so you can refer to them at any time.
During our Numeracy Day all classes will focus their work on aspects of Numeracy. In the afternoon parents/carers and friends of the school are invited to visit classrooms in order to see the children demonstrating some of the Numeracy work which they do in school. There will also be adult challenges and examples of how parents/carers can help their children at home.
Health Week – Week beginning Monday 18th May
During this week all classes will take part in a variety of Health and Wellbeing related activities including sport taster sessions, cooking and internet safety lessons.
Parents/carers are again invited to the school to support their child/children.
Parents of Primary 7 children are invited to join us as we say “Goodbye” to our Primary 7s.
It’s going to be another busy term filled with lots of fun and a whole lot of learning!

We’ve had another great term at Lawmuir and I’d like to thank the pupils and staff for all their hard work and the parents/carers for their continued support. I hope you all have a lovely holiday and we’ll see you all at 9am on Monday 20th April.
Mrs. Watt
Today we have had lots of Easter fun. Most of it has involved eggs, boiled and chocolate!
We have had lots of fun in class looking at all the decorated eggs as part of our competition, teachers found it very difficult to decide on the winning design. Some classes went outside to roll their eggs in the playground to see who could roll the farthest and we have had an Easter Egg Hunt in school, if you were lucky enough to find a paper egg hidden around school then you could trade it for a chocolate one!
Here are some photos of our fun filled day. Happy Easter!
Congratulations to the winner of our Easter Egg Raffle, Kyle!
Primary 7 have been busy organising events to help fundraise for the Primary 7 Yearbook and Leavers Event.
