Primary 2 and Primary 3 had their turn to experience the sport of Judo and they really enjoyed this. The determination on their faces showed how hard they were working and the smiles proved their enjoyment. Everyone was keen to take part and can’t wait until the next visit!

it! 

Destination Judo came in to school to give everyone a chance to try out some judo moves. We all had a great time trying the different activities and we are looking forward to the next time.

Members of Meldrum Primary ‘School Squad’ were very busy before the Easter holidays as they laid on an afternoon tea for the clients of Pentland View Court. The upper school pupils baked scones, cup cakes, carrot cake and many others whilst the younger pupils made chocolate crispy cakes. They also prepared a variety of sandwiches. Primary 1 pupils also visited and joined the visitors for tea and a chat. Everyone had a very good afternoon and it ended with a game of reverse bingo with prizes for the winners.

Nature not only provides us with all the things we need to live – from the air we breathe to the water we drink, and from the shelter we need to the economy we rely on – but also makes our lives better. However, its growing loss puts this all under threat.

This Earth Hour, join millions around the world to turn off the lights and speak up about why nature matters. A lot of pupils and Meldrum staff will be turning off our lights and electrical devices on Saturday 30th March at 8.30pm for an hour…will you?

“Primary 3 have been learning about 2D Shapes”

“A 2D Shape is a flat Shape”

“We have been making 2D shapes out of materials like pipe cleaners, lollipop sticks, paint, foam and straws”

“2D stands for two dimensional”

“2D shapes are different to 3D shapes”

“There are different types of 2D shapes like triangles, circles, hexagons, pentagons, octagons, squares and rectangles”

“A polygon is a 2D shape made with straight lines”

Wow! Some of our senior pupils challenged themselves trying new activities at Lowport.

It was very wet outside for some activities!
