A big thank you to all our amazing parents who came along to support the Football Club on Wednesday night. I suppose we should say a little well done to the ‘not very competitive’ parents who won all their games coming first. Well Done 🙂
We really enjoyed having you there and hope to see you again.
This week we have been; buying red noses (a lot), enjoying Judo taster sessions (so much fun), talking about World Book Day and sharing our favorite stories, finding out more about King Henry VIII, litter picking in the playground, practicing singing  for our Easter Service, learning about fractions in our maths, learning about proper nouns in our writing and practicing for the Handball Festival next week.
Thank you to all the parents who have been sending pounds in for Red Nose Day, we made a graph out of ours to show the most popular noses.
Finally … ask some ‘sensible’ children to take the litter picking photos and this is what you find on the camera roll …
lovely 🙂
Thank you so much for all your amazing donations for Day for Change. Your spare change has really made a difference and will help children in Syria and the Philippines whose lives have been effected by war and natural disasters. A massive congratulations to the whole school for raising a huge £264.33, although the pupils did bag up the coins so we are probably a few pennies out (this will be a fun trip to the bank)
So, huge congratulations to Primary 2 for being the class winners. You will get your treat out of class with Mrs Monahan next week!
Thank you to the Rights Respecting Group who came up with the ideas and helped to make the day a success.
We are all very proud of our school football club who have took part in round two of the Whitburn Primary Schools Football League. Out of 6 games we won 4, lost 1 and drew 1. Â Keep up the hard work and training. Football club is finished for now until after Easter. We will be having another fun night on Wednesday 4th March, parents are welcome along to join in.
Big well done from Mrs Monahan, you all represented your school so proudly. You all had great team spirit and played excellently. I was so nervous for you all and loved cheering you on. I was very impressed they way you spoke to the other teams and were making new friends.
Primary 6 had a fantastic day at Stoneyburn on Wednesday. The boys and girls enjoyed meeting new friends and working together. Primary 6 are building a track for a programable car to travel on. Using their technology skills they will be problem solving together.
Thank you Stoneyburn for a fantastic day, see you soon

well done girls and boys you were great!
We enjoyed a fantastic day  working with all the Primary 5s at Stoneyburn. Adam said he really enjoyed and made some new friends. The boys and girls really enjoyed working with other children. We had a very interesting day all food related. First we tried some porridge with lots of toppings. Next we researched some of  our favourite foods and where they came from in the world. We then enjoyed a trip to Asda where we were shown the bakery and we got to talk about and try lots of fruit and vegetables. Thank you to Sharon in Asda who was wonderful with the children. We then bought some ingredients to take back to school to try cutting up and making our own healthy wraps.
 
Fantastic day everyone. We’ll done boys and girls and a big thank you to Stoneyburn for welcoming us to your school today.
We have been busy learning all about an artist called Yvonne Coomber this week, this is her painting called Dancing Hearts
.
We spent time looking at her work and discussing the different feelings we could see in the paintings. Then we created our own unique pictures. We used a variety of colours of paint and paint of different textures. First we chose the backdrop colours and blended the paints. then we created the green stems and finally the flowers. We hope you like them. They will be displayed in school for a while before they can go home.
We have been training hard and looking forward to our second Football Festival which is on the 26th of February.
This week we have been learning about the Buddha and the story of his life. We have also been looking at our next artist we will be learning about called Yvonne Coomber.
primary 5/4 are really proud of Jayden Kerr for his red belt in Judo and Erin Swan for her dance grade examination.
well done
