No change from yesterday, although a few children have reported hearing a few wee cheeps from inside the eggs.


P6W took delivery of 10 eggs yesterday.
At the moment they are being kept at 37.7 C in a humidifier. This keeps our baby chicks nice and warm and the humid air makes it easier for them to break through the shell.
Things are quiet at the moment but on Wednesday/Thursday we’re expecting to meet our little visitors.
We’re all VERY excited!

As part of our school wide project on the Corporal Works of Mercy, our P5 classes have been learning about homelessness over the last few weeks. We have decided to turn our learning into action by raising money to support a homeless charity. We will be holding a bake sale on Friday 25th May. All classes will have an opportunity to come along and buy some of our tasty treats on the day. All the money raised will be donated to the children’s chosen charity, Shelter.
Dear Parents/Carers,
I have sent a letter home with your child regarding a class trip to the Bennie Museum in Bathgate on Tuesday 15th May.
Please send the permission slip in, along with the payment of £3, as soon as possible.
If you have any questions please get in touch.
Many thanks for your continued support,
Miss McLachlan
