Titanic Experience
As you know, Primary 4/5 and Primary 5 have been studying The Unsinkable Ship. They have requested a trip to The Titanic Experience in Belfast. We would like to know your thoughts. Please click on the link below for more information. This will give us an idea of whether you would like this trip to go ahead.
Mrs Haig Visits P7!
Mrs Haig, our STEM ambassador, came to visit P7 to talk about career pathways into engineering. We asked lots of questions and were left feeling inspired.
Primary 1, 1/2 and 2’s Science Morning
With Mrs Preston, the children were investigating which materials are waterproof. They separated them into ‘waterproof’ and ‘not waterproof’ categories. The children learned about making our investigation a fair test and learned that not waterproof materials soak up water and waterproof materials push water away! It’s was a very fun morning! Emma told us it was the most fun ever!!
Working our socks off in P6!
Primary 6 have been working exceptionally hard over the past few weeks!
We have been learning to add and subtract 3, 4 and 5 digit numbers within numeracy! We’ve found that using whiteboards have helped us lots when trying to solve problems in our maths groups!
We have also been writing some fantastic imaginative stories which have included “An Invasion” and “The Castle of Horror”
To add to this we have been learning about change this week in science especially with solids, Liquids and gases! We’ve created some fabulous posters!
As well as this we have continued to do lots of activities within our Magic Castle topic! We have been preparing for our Showcase on Monday evening and look forward to seeing you all then!

School Meals
We have been advised by West Lothian Council that a threshold of £20.00 has been set for everyone for online meal ordering. You will no longer be able to order meals unless your account has sufficient credit. When the £20.00 ‘debt’ limit is reached the parent must make an online payment before they can order any more meals. Children will still be able to order in class where cash payment can be made.
P5G STEM Cornflour Slime
Yesterday (Tuesday 21st March) Primary 5 had a wonderful science STEM day and made cornflour slime. The children all enjoyed getting involved with the experiments and trying things out and following the instructions to make new things and to show changes in colour and changes in state.
Cornflour slime
The children found it quite tricky to mix the cornflour and water and had to work hard to combine the two using lots of muscle power.
Eventually, when the consistency was correct the pupils chose their preferred colour for the slime.
Results
- adding a little water didn’t work well and we had to add more
- cornflour and water mix to create a substance that is hard when you tap it and turns runny when you handle it.
- it looked gooey and squishy
- was hard to mix food colouring
