Walk to School Week
Next week the whole school will be taking part in the Living Streets Walk to School campaign. This is to try and encourage children to be active during the day, starting off their daily 60min exercise by walking to school. We are also encouraging other activities like cycling, scootering and skate boarding.
If possible encourage your child throughout the week to make the journey to school an active one 🙂 We will be recording in class the different ways we journey to school and in school each class will be aiming to climb the distance of a Scottish mountain!
Keep an eye out for our progress and pictures next week 🙂
Happy holidays ☀️🌺
Have a lovely Summer holidays from all the staff at Cochrane Castle ☺️
Happy holidays Primary 1
I know it may not feel like it with the weather outside but today marks our final day of home learning before the Summer holidays!
First of all I would like to say an absolutely huge thank you and well done to all the parents and carers of the P1 children, you have been superstars over the past few months helping your child to learn at home!
Also a huge thank you to the children, I have absolutely loved being their teacher this year and have missed them so much over the past 13 weeks! I cannot wait to see them in August and hope they have a fantastic summer holidays.
I have put together a wee video for them, which I hope they enjoy watching and remembering all the fun we have had this year 🙂
If you have any questions or they would like to share things they are doing over the holidays feel free to send messages in here and I will see them at some point over the 6 weeks 🙂

Good morning Primary 1 and welcome to our final week of home learning before the Summer holidays and your last week of Primary 1! I will be coming out this week to visit you all and see how you are doing 🙂

Primary 1 – 18/06/20
Good morning Primary 1, today I am in school working with the Primary 7s so I won’t be online this morning. I will get back to you all this afternoon 🙂
Literacy
Read your story for this week if you haven’t already
Rockets – Yak’s Pants
Moons and Stars – Top Cat
I would also like you to have a go at writing me a story for the picture. If you need help today ask an adult but try as much as you can to use your common words spelling and your phonics 🙂
Try to write 3 sentences, if you need to write a little bit and then come back to it every so often throughout the day then that is completely okay 🙂
Numeracy
- Count in 1’s to 30
- Count forward in 2’s to 30
- Count in 1’s from 30 to 40
- Count backwards in 2’s from 20
- Count forward in 5’s to 30 (50 if you want a challenge)
- Count forward in 10’s to 100
- Count backwards in 10’s from 70
Forfeit: if you make a mistake pretend your an elephant let your adult hear you trump and have another go 🙂
Take your time and spread these challenges out throughout the day 🙂
