Playground equipment
The members of the Pupil Council would like to thank the Parent Council for the new playground equipment which arrived at the school today. We had great fun unpacking the box before handing over the contents to the Rights Respecting Committee. We are sure that everyone in the school will enjoy using the new equipment.
Class on the canal
P6/7 had the delight of experiencing a ‘normal’ school day with a twist. We were invited along to go cruising on The Wooden Spoon canal boat to extend our learning in our Scottish Canals topic. Our skipper, Ronnie (Archie’s grandad), not only told us all about the history of the canal but he allowed us to have a shot at steering the boat and using the locks. On board, we followed our usual class time-table and completed writing, problem solving and art challenges.
Thank you to Ronnie and The Wooden Spoon!!
Children in Need
