Cycling For P7
P7-Fundraising
Due to restrictions this year, our primary 7s have missed out on a few activities that they would normally have taken part in and enjoyed. To make up for this, we are planning three days of fun activities for them in school.
Please read our letter for more information
Thank you for your continued contributions.
P7-Raffle
Due to COVID restrictions, Primary 7 are currently unable to participate in our traditional Primary 7 excursions. As a result, we are planning to provide 3 days of fun filled activities and special experiences for the primary 7 pupils. We will be having a raffle to help raise funds for this and some of our local businesses have very kindly donated some amazing prizes. Thank you to all of them for their generosity.

Christmas card design winner
Congratulations to Taylor McPherson in P7 who won the schools annual Christmas Card design competition.
Taylor had a great afternoon on Saturday at the Paisley annual Christmas Lights Switch-On event. After riding in Santa’s Sleigh in the procession, she helped to switch on the town’s Christmas Lights.
Coding Club mini game jam
Our Coding club kids spent a great day yesterday at West College Scotland participating in a Mini Game Jam. The children were asked to design a game in a short space of time based on a given theme which they were only told at the start of the day. The theme was Space and our two teams created two very different games.
Thanks again to Dr Amanda Ford and her team for providing the opportunity for the kids.

P6 & P7 Cross Country
Yesterday some of our P6 and P7 boys and girls took part in the Renfrewshire Schools Cross Country in Renfrew. Well done to all who took part on such a blustery day. It was great to see our pupils cheering each other on.
Thank you again to our parent helpers for their support.

P7 are in stitches
P7 have recently taken part in some stitching workshops provided by The Paisley Thread Museum. For 3 weeks in January, Stephen, Maureen and Christine visited the school to teach the children some of the history of cotton in Paisley. The children then took part in a stitching workshop. They created a design on a bobbin shape and used an embroidery hoop and some basic stitches to embroider their design.
