Visit to Hampden

P3/4/5 enjoyed an eventful day at Hampden Park today. As Ryan was a finalist in the Show Racism the Red Card competition, the class were invited to have a tour around the stadium and its museum before attending a star-studded award ceremony. The biggest highlight was hearing Ryan announced as the winner of the P1-4 category with the next most popular part being collecting autographs from the footballers who were present. A memorable day!

Earth Hour Dress Brightly Day – March 28th


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.
