The new Primary 1 pupils visited the school this morning and were welcomed by the new Primary 2 pupils. They all got to know their buddies and also met their shared reading buddies from Primary 6 and 7. Everyone is looking forward to seeing them again after the summer holidays.
P6/7 were shelter building today using natural materials found in the playground. As we have been studying Andy Goldsworthy, this afternoon was also spent painting with mud.
Today, our P7s completed their Sponsored Challenge with great success! They walked 2 miles around Beecraigs Park and then had to climb the spider’s web with a cup of water in their mouth. The aim was to reach the ground again with NO spillages.
When the pupils returned to school, all of the other classes were waiting in the playground for Part Two… The Ice Bucket Challenge.
Well done P7. Once again, you were a huge success.
Today, our P7s went on a fantastic trip to The Risk Factory in Edinburgh. They were faced with a number of risky scenarios in life like settings. They had to make decisions on how to recognise dangers and how to keep themselves safe. Unfortunately, we cannot post any photos as we are not allowed to show any other pupils at school what it was like. P6 – you’ll have to wait until this time next year and you’ll get to see for yourselves.
