The class loved their trip to Bannockburn centre. The children learned about the tactics used at the battle of Bannockburn and tried on the different types of armour the soldiers wore.
Primary 5B
Primary 1a Catch Up
Primary 1 have been loving learning all about what life was life when their grandparents were in Primary 1! They interviewed a family member to hear what school, houses and technology was like in the past. Miss Munro pretended to be a strict teacher from the past, making the children sit at desks and not allowed to talk! We had lots of fun trying out the old fashioned classroom but were glad when we could play again!
They also loved learning about lots of different games and hobbies that children used to play in the past! We learned how to play Peevers (hopscotch), skipping and Kirbie. In class we loved playing Pick-a-Stick, Jacks and Dominoes!
P5B class talk
This week, P5B presented their solo talks which was based on a character from the 13th century. Everyone did an amazing job presenting their PowerPoints and posters to the class. Well done!
Dance Competition
Our fabulous dance team performed brilliantly in the West Lothian Dance Festival. They showed confidence, and rhythm as they danced to ‘Disturbia’ on stage.
Eco – Tree Buddy Initiative
We were lucky to have some visitors today who helped teach us about climate change. Jim and James from Livingston Outlet Centre visited us as they needed our help! Did you know there are over 1000 workers at the centre? That is a lot of journeys to and from work and a lot of carbon emissions from cars. They have worked out that 100 trees need to be planted every year to offset this carbon emission. We helped them today by planting 5 Silver birch trees with the help from Jack who is a tree expert. We worked well in teams and know how to look after our new trees. We are all Eco Warriors! 
Primary 6 Badminton Festival
Primary 6B had a wonderful time at the Deans Cluster Festival this morning. They took part in lots of different stations and activities to practise their badminton skills.
P5A Forest Fun
P5A have been asking to go to the forest as we haven’t been for a while. They showed super teamwork when building dens in the wind! It was quite a challenge with the very large tarpaulins! 
P5B Music
Today in Primary 5B, the class learned about dynamics and the ways that it can convey mood. The children were given instruments to convey different feelings and had to match the music with different parts of a story.
Happy World Book Day from Primary 6 
Primary 6 have had great fun celebrating World Book Day!
They joined the ‘Footy and Booky’ quiz run by The National Literacy Trust and enjoyed hearing messages from famous footballers and authors encouraging them to keep reading.
They then worked in teams to match the blurbs to the front cover of popular picture books from their childhood.
Some brave pupils volunteered to read out the books to the class.
The children then worked in groups to act out the stories.
In the afternoon, Primary 6 had fun creating their own Mr Men and Little Miss characters and writing stories to share with younger children in the school.
P6 Pancakes
Primary 6 made some pancakes with butter and jam, just butter, just jam or just plain!
