This year we will be learning about jobs and how the skills we learn in school relate to the World of Work. We will be holding our World of Work week from Monday 30th March to Thursday 2nd April. If you would be willing and able to either visit our classes to tell them about your job or if your work allows any visits, please complete the form below. If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you in advance.

Miss Karen McDowall, Principal Teacher

We are very excited to announce the visit to the school of local author Lindsay Littleston.  She will be speaking to children in P5-7 about creative writing and life as an author.  Her books will be available to purchase on the day at the price of £6 each but there is absolutely no obligation to buy!  Children can bring cash on the day if they wish to buy.

She will be reading from her latest novels, The Titanic Detective Agency and Guardians of the Wild Unicorns.

It will be a fun, interactive presentation with a quiz, book reading and question and answer session.

Mrs Campbell (Literacy Champion)

This term, Primary 4 will be learning about food and the journey from farm to fork. We were wondering if there is anyone in our school community who works in this area who could come and talk to the children about farming, agriculture and the journey their food goes through before it reaches them on the dinner table.

If you could help with this project, please complete the contact form below.

With thanks, the P4 Teachers

Here is the rota for term three. Hopefully we manage to get some kinder weather in the weeks ahead.

Rules

• The field is only open during Lunchtimes.
• Field shoes must be worn. If you do not have a change of shoes you cannot go down. P1 already have indoor shoes in their classroom however all other classes will need to bring in a change of shoes in for the field.
• You can only access the field when it is your turn.
  It will either be P1-3 or P4-7.
