Introducing our newly appointed P5 Reading Ambassadors Rowena and Joe and our Reading Buddies Caitlin, Jessica, Naomi, Ava, Kara, Rosie and Zara. They are going to be inspiring a love of reading across the school and community. Watch this space!
It’s nearly show time so p7s use snow day to perfect your lines, especially for scenes 15 to 20. Remember the front cover competition closes on Friday so everyone could draw an entry. Use an A4 piece of paper in portrait and draw something little mermaid related with no words or titles. P6 could be practising your dances with snowmen and choir get singing in the snow!
Congratulations to all our Poetry finalists. The standard was exceptionally high and it was great to hear such confident individuals. Well done to all!
*Some of our P7s were at Sky Academy this week and it was excellent.
*P6 enjoyed filming books in Scots to share with the nursery and P1.
!We want to practise show on stage.
Primary 6 have been busy writing their own silly Christmas stories. We have published them into smart folders and decided to show them off to the other classes. Here are some photos of us reading them to the Nursery – they were a fantastic audience and really enjoyed listening to our silly stories.
What a fantastic Saturday morning at M&S with our school choir! The store manager, Nick, said we should go down everyday until Christmas! He said that the customers and staff loved hearing and we had everybody in the store dancing about. Nicola and Georgia spoke to him and Carolyn at the end to thank them for having us and for more yummy snacks.
Thank you also to Mrs Burgon, Mrs Seawright, and Miss Bethell for coming along to support us! We also want the thank all the pupils, parents and siblings for giving up their Saturday morning – Keeva and Demi-Leigh were great singers too!
What an amazing effort from our amazing choir this morning at Marks and Spencer’s in Livingston! We had such a fun time singing to the staff and customers – one little girl in particular loved our singing! We were lucky to be given a yummy “posh” snack which helped us sing for over an hour! Here are some pictures of us enjoying our treats and singing our hearts out – Mrs Duncan enjoyed joining in with ‘Unto Us’.
A big thank you to Mrs Thomson and Mrs Roy who counted the money we raised – an astonishing £350!!
Another big thank you to Mrs Duncan and Mrs McAlpine for coming with us today!
Primary 6 have been learning about the rights of refugees in the UK. We looked at the difference between refugees and migrants, and used our knowledge of civil rights to discuss how individuals or groups of people may be made to leave their home due to persecution based on their gender, religion or personal beliefs etc.
We then discussed the British Laws regarding refugees and looked at the information UNICEF have provided schools about the issues with keeping families together. UNICEF have suggested that school pupils use their voices to tell the Government what we think about the Law in our country. With this is mind we created campaign posters which we will send on to the Home Secretary. Part of their job is to look after refugees who come to the UK and we hope our posters will help to persuade them to allow families of refugees to be able to live together.
The Primary 6 pupils have been busy taking some of our younger pupils to the library every day. We do this to encourage everyone to read more! The Nursery pupils love when the bigger boys and girls come to visit and they made us delicious rice crispy treats (yum yum!) and a lovely card to say thank you! Now it is our turn to say thank you to them! 🙂
Some of our Choir members sang to the Memory Cafe group at Rosemount Court on Monday. Chris from the Church organised the event and was super impressed with our Choir’s beautiful voices and fantastic behaviour. We were even treated to a biscuit and some juice – yum yum!
