WELCOME BACK!
We hope everyone enjoyed a well earned break from school particularly after such a busy end to the school term. The HMI inspection team were full of compliments during their visit which took place in the final week of the the term and have indicated they will not be making a return visit to the school next session. They were hugely impressed with the children who were always eager to talk about their learning. This is excellent news and confirms that they have great confidence in the school to maintain it’s ongoing improvement agenda. We extend a huge thanks to all parents for their continued support of the management team and school staff as we worked to address our improvement priorities. Our final term will be a busy one as always so please check bags this week for the termly newsletter that will include dates for the term ahead.

Peer Reading Exchange
Our budding authors from P4 and P7 met earlier this week to share the novels they wrote during Literacy Week. They got to read each others stories, ask questions about characters and plots and then peer assessed each others work. Wonderful discussions took place and our visiting inspectors commented on the quality and quantity of our writing. Well done boys and girls.
STEM in P7 – Marble Run
Primary 7 have been learning about kinetic energy and gravity and have been designing their own marble runs with the hope we can make a marble run for 30 seconds. As you will see from the attached pictures we have some very creative individuals. Apparently the sparkles are to slow the marble down but i’m not convinced ! We will let you know our findings.
STEM in P6/7 – Dancing Raisins
Primary 6/7 was a hive of activity today when the children carried out an experiment on carbon dioxide. We made predictions on what we thought would happen and learned how carbon dioxide makes raisins dance!
