Summer term in Lomond class
We can’t believe that summer is here already! we would like to wish everyone a lovely summer holiday and we are looking forward to seeing everyone for the next big adventure in our lovely new school.
Here are some of the highlights from our term.
Pentland Term 4
Well folks, it’s nearly the end of another term as well as the end of the school year and our time in the old Beatlie School campus!
It’s been another fun and busy term with lots of activities and we have put together a short video of our 2 favourites…
We would like to take this opportunity to wish you a happy summer 🌞, hopefully we’ll see lots of you at the Beatlie Bash on Friday 🥳 and then it’ll be time for lots of new adventures in our amazing new school! 😊
Team Pentland 💚
Ochiltree Class of 22/23
Ochiltree Class of 22/23 have had a very busy, fun and challenging year and all the children have given it their all to be confident individuals, responsible citizens, effective contributors and successful learners.
For our last term we continued the theme of working hard and playing hard. For the walking month of May we went on our daily walks enjoying different sensory experiences of the different areas we visited. We also physically challenged ourselves to walk in/on different areas we would have avoided!
We were able to complete our Asdan, SQA and Duke of Edinburgh work of which I am sure we will get positive feedback for.
Our cross class activities were brilliant this year and all enjoyed each others company and interacting with each other for all the different activities such as assembly or outdoor play.
We have had lots of health and wellbeing activities from bike riding to mindfulness, gardening to rebound and boys/girls group for personal care. Some of the pupils also participated in a health group which was amazing! showing their resilience and bravery for accepting medical routines.
We have continued to have an effective whole school and community approach to Learning for Sustainability weaving together global citizenship, sustainable development education and outdoor learning to create coherent, rewarding and transformative learning experiences such as Earth Day, Fairtrade Tuck, gardening, outdoor numeracy activities, forest trails, walks and Eco activities.
We will be saying goodbye to our friend Duncan who will be moving on with best wishes from us all. We will all be saying goodbye to our building but look forward to new beginnings.
Have a fantastic holiday and see you all again for 2023/24!
Term 4 in Hopetoun
We can’t quite believe that we already find ourselves approaching the end of the school year, how time flies when you’re having fun!! It’s been a year full of adventures, experiences and fun in Hopetoun and there’s lots more in store for when we move into to our fabulous new campus after the holidays.
This term we’ve been lucky enough to enjoy lots of outdoor experiences in the sunshine including taking on a whole school walking challenge for the month of May which we smashed! We’ve been practicing lots of useful skills so hopefully there are some helping hands with jobs around the house and we rounded off the term with a trip to 5 Sisters Zoo.
We hope you enjoy looking at our photos and we wish everyone a happy and healthy summer.

Spring term in Lomond class
What great fun we have had this term. We have been lucky to be able to go horse riding and the weather was really kind to us. We have done lots of sensory exploration through water play, messy play and our sensory boxes. We have let our imaginations shine with some dressing up and some imaginary play with babies and water- what a great combination!
We are looking forward to going on some new adventures next term, hopefully the sun will continue to shine for us and we can spend lots of time outside.
Here are some of our highlights from this term.
Lammermuir Term 3 review
What a busy term we have had. Here are some of our highlights.
Term 3 in Hopetoun
This term has absolutely flown by and we’re so excited to finally see the beginnings of Spring outside!!
We’ve had another busy term getting involved in our school Eco work, Fairtrade activities, Comic Relief and had the best time at our Burns Ceilidh. We’ve also been busy starting our new topic all about people who help us in school and have had fun taking photo’s of people we find who help us as well as getting involved in some of the jobs that they do and we’ll be continuing this topic after the Easter holidays.
We hope you all have a lovely Easter.
