P1 and P2 children are learning about litter and recycling.
Primary 7’s Music Project
Primary 7s have been working closely with Bob and Maria from Software Training Scotland, over the past 10 weeks.They have been learning all about how to create music using a program called Garageband, by pulling tracks apart and reconstructing them again. On Monday the primary 7 pupils shared their learning at assembly and we got to hear some of their music tracks. We were loving the beats so we had to get up and dance. Have a look at our video to see our live jamming session!

Jammin Fitness
Andy from Jammin’ Fitness came out last month to work with the children on confidence and positive thinking. We are able to do anything we want as long as we put our mind to it. He spoke to the upper school in an inspirational and active assembly and then worked with P7 pupils on presentation skills.

Tuck time
Everyday we sell tuck at the beginning of school. Lately we haven’t been selling much so we thought we’d tell you about what we have and why tuck is good.
You can buy:
* biscuits
* a range of fruit – bananas, apples, oranges, raisins, pineapple and melon
* yoghurts
* cheese strings
The items vary in price starting at 10p.
Having a healthy snack at playtime provides us with lots of energy to help make our great brains work. If you buy tuck it helps the school to raise money to buy new things for our classes and our playground.
We hope to see more of you at tuck shop.
The tuck team – Jason B, Jenna and Elise
JRSO visit to P2
The Junior Road Safety Officers came to our class to teach us how to cross the road safely. Ava said, Emma was good at teaching her to stay safe on the road. Natalie said, it was fun learning to cross the road. Abigail said the JRSOs taught us to put our feet behind the kerb and Cate said we must look both ways to check for cars. We held hands and crossed the road when it was safe. Stephanie said we put on bright jackets so we can been seen by cars when it is dark. Luca learnt he can cross the road on his own when he is 11 years old. Louisa said we need to keep safe and Emma helped us to cross the road. Angeline helped Scot, Szymon and Alasdair to cross the road. Taylor helped Natalie, Poppy-Grace, Luca and Adam. Emma helped Ava, John and Sam. We enjoyed learning how to cross the road safely. Thank you to the JRSOs!
