Ryan’s design for a Show Racism the Red Card poster was awarded first prize today at an exciting award ceremony at Hampden Park, Glasgow. His mum and dad were at the event, along with P3/4/5 class. He was given two signed footballs and a £200 cheque to spend on resources for the school. Well done Ryan!! What an amazing achievement!
P3,4,5 have been creating their own movie trailers using iMovie. The theme is Neolithic Ceremonies. Enjoy the first couple on Youtube now – with more to follow!
On Friday 28th March in Torphichen Primary we will be celebrating Earth Hour by having a dress-brightly day, where pupils can pay £1 to come to school wearing brightly coloured or sparkly clothes. The Eco Committee are hoping to use the money raised to organise the adoption of a wild animal through the WWF (World Wildlife Fund).
We will also be switching off as many electrical items in school on the same day, between 11a.m and 12midday. This is to recognise the worldwide event organised by the WWF, which officially takes place on Saturday 29th March between 8.30pm and 9.30pm. We hope you will take part in this event. If you take part at home, please take photographs of what you did and we can display these on the Eco board in school. Either bring in a printed photo or email them into school and we can print them for you here.

Here goes with our collaborative story!
Once upon a time, a young boy called Steve won a helicopter ride over the plains of Africa.
The helicopter flew low to get a better look when, suddenly, a giant cat jumped on it.
The helicopter crashed to the ground and surpisingly, Steve saw a colourful dinosaur!…
