As part of our Developing the Young Workforce week, our P6/7 class visited Albert Bartletts. Back in school we used the potatoes and onions we grew in our grounds to create our own soup. It was great and we are now thinking of what we could make next.
All P5-7 pupils have been on World of Work this week answering questions about their skills and personalities. This information is saved and then gives them some career recommendations. Children have been surprised by some of the options and are now thinking about wider career choices.
P2/3/4 had a visit from Mrs Murray today who creates her own cakes. She showed them examples of her work and discussed what she enjoys about her job. Pupils then had to create their own themed cupcakes. They looked delicious.
A group of pupils started painting the boulders and rocks outside our school today with Mr Murray. We painted them school colours red and white and we are hoping to paint our vision and values on them. Thank you to Barron Aggregates for continuing to support us and providing the rocks.
In primary 6 we are doing I.C.T and we are posting things on the school blog. We are learning how to upload photos onto the blog.
This afternoon p6 are learning how to use the school blog it is really fun every body is having fun. We are trying to upload photos – we may need more practise with this.

Well done to all our candidates who presented a speech to become this years House Captains. We were so proud of all of our pupils for speaking confidently in front of an audience. Once the speeches were done, it was time for the rest of us to go into Room 7 and fill out our ballot papers for our best candidate. Congratulations to our successful pupils. Arden House Captain: Sara
We had a Sports Champion visit today from Louise Renicks, Commonwealth gold medalist for judo. She spent time with classes doing some circuit training and then demonstrated some judo techniques. She then spent some time talking to pupils about how she achieved her success and how she had to work extremely hard to get there. She linked her hard work and dedication back to some of our own school values.
