Wallace Primary School and Nursery Class
Happy Together. Learning Together. Succeeding Together.
This week at assembly we celebrated coding club achievements, a HT award and our regular red carpet celebration of out of school achievement. There was also a special well done to Tyler for being our whole school Christmas card winner for a competition organised by our local MSP!
Well done to all, we are very proud of you!
Happy New Year to all the pupils, staff and families at Wallace Primary and Nursery!
We hope you all had a wonderful holiday and look forward to welcoming everyone back at 9am tomorrow.
You may have read on our Twitter feed or been told by the children that last week we were delighted to announce we were one of the winning schools for Renfrewshire for Book Week Scotland. The staff and pupils worked so hard to make the week a success and we are delighted to have our hard work recognised.

We wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a lovely holiday with family and friends.

What a fantastic week we had during #BookWeekScot @AttainRen !
On Monday, we had a Book Week Event. There were so many things going on – a Literacy presentation for parents, a Reading Cafe for children, book quizzes, recommendation stalls and much more! There were leaflets with information about Literacy in the Nursery-P1, P1-P3 and P4-7. These will soon be available to download on our website. We had a lot of positive feedback from the Event. Click below to read some of the lovely comments.
Pupil Evaluations from the event and Parent Evaluations from the event.
Throughout the week we had lots going on. P4-7 and P1-3 wrote books! Each stage wrote one chapter then passed it on. The finished products are amazing! Classes also created a reading display and transformed their libraries into cosy reading areas.
Thank you to everyone who came to our Event on Monday and to all staff and pupils for their hard work during Book Week. We can’t wait for Book Week 2018!
