Scottish Book Trust
Ravenswood Primary took part in the Scottish Book Trust Children’s Book Awards. The senior buddies shared 3 fantastic story books as part of our reading buddy time. The infants thought long and hard about their favourite book and voted.
All of the votes were counted and the winner was announced. Congratulations goes to…Mouses First Night At Moonlight School!
At the end, we all took home all 3 stories to keep and enjoy. We love taking part in the Scottish Book Awards. Have a look at our thank you certificate.

Primary 1 use different strategies to solve addition problems!
Primary 1 can solve addition problems by drawing a picture, constructing a part/part whole, using equations, completing ten frames, recalling doubles facts or representing a sum using concrete materials. If you ever need help with addition, just call upon our experts!
Primary 1 learn how to keep healthy!
Primary 1 are learning all about the Healthcare System through the interactive learning zones in our classroom. As Article 24 states: all children have the right to the best possible health care, so our class wanted to find out about the different places and people that help to keep us healthy. We have a Baby Clinic Role-play Area, Paramedics Small World Area, Hospital Role-play Area and Pharmacy Role-play Area. The children can investigate, explore and enhance their learning about each aspect, while also developing important social skills, such as turn taking and sharing. Best of all, they are having so much fun!!!
Primary 1 keep fit and healthy!
Primary 1 have been enjoying keeping active outdoors as part of our ‘Keeping Healthy’ interdisciplinary learning theme. We practised our balance, co-ordination and climbing skills on the trim trail, and completed the ‘Walk a Mile’ challenge.
Primary 1 and Primary 1/2 learn about plants in time for Mother’s Day!
Primary 1 worked co-operatively with Primary 1/2 to learn about Plants. We explored the parts of a plant and what a plant needs to grow, before planting our own daffodil bulbs. We watered and cared for the bulbs so that beautiful daffodils grew and we gave our flowers as a thoughtful Mother’s Day gift.
Primary 1 having fun on World Book Day!
Primary 1 had a fabulous time on World Book Day! We chose our favourite quotes from a variety of famous children’s stories and described our favourite literary characters in honour of World Book Day!
Meeting new friends
Last week we met some new faces- the lovely primary ones who will be joining us in August. They had great fun meeting our current primary 1 and primary 1/2, having a tour of the infant department and playing with their buddies.
Primary 1 visit the Pharmacy!
Primary 1 visited a Pharmacy as part of our ‘Keeping Healthy’ interdisciplinary learning theme. We found out what happens to prescriptions and saw real pharmacist working hard. Then we examined the difference between medicines you can buy in a shop and the medicines you can only get in a Pharmacy. We know medicines are dangerous and that we should never touch them without an adult.
