Well done to our P4 and P5 pupils who recently shared their views, and the views of their peers, with SIC representatives at a Showcase Event at the Sandwick JH School. You represented your school fabulously! For more information about our morning, please have a look at the P4/5/6 Blog.
Alec’s A Finalist!
We were delighted to hear that Alec has made into into the National Finals of the Royal College of Speech and Language Therapists’ (RCSLT) VoiceBox competition! He is heading off to the Scottish Parliament on the 5th of June to tell his joke alongside the other regional winners. Good luck Alec!

School Improvement Plan 24/25
Children’s Parliament & AI Project
Primary 4/5 have been involved in a two year project with the Children’s Parliament and the Alan Turing Institute. We have been extremely fortunate to have had the opportunity to find out more about Children’s Rights and the UNCRC and also explore Artificial Intelligence.
We would like to say a big ‘thank you’ to all the pupils who have contributed to this project over the past two years. Special thanks go to our three ‘Investigators’ who have taken part in online calls with the other 3 schools involved throughout Scotland. They have passed the views, ideas and concerns of the rest of the class on to those running the project and have been brilliant ambassadors for our school, especially when they took part in the AI Summit at Dynamic Earth, Edinburgh.
If you would like to see what the project involved, please watch the video which shows some of the work we’ve carried out this year.

2024 Folk Festival
On Friday 3rd May we were lucky enough to have some special guests in school; visiting Folk Festival Band, The Fretless, they had travelled all the way from Canada! They were absolutely fantastic, they had us all dancing and very well entertained!
Towards the end, the band played famous songs, we had to stand up if we recognised the tune…this one was a popular one!
Christmas Lunch
We have been treated to an absolutely delicious Christmas lunch today. Big thanks to Norma, Bethany and Marina for all their hard work.
Primary 6/7 helped set up the hall to make it look very festive indeed. I think we all liked the tables set up in groups!
It was super to see so many Christmas jumpers too!
