We have had some super achievements this term in P3R.
Some have participated in drama or dance shows.
We have a Players’ Player of the year award for football and a big trophy for dancing.
Well done to all of you!
We have worked hard and learned a lot in Primary 3.
We have grown too as you can see from the photographs.
Our first day in P3!
Our last full day in P3!
Have a happy holiday everyone!
Thank you to everyone who managed to add some items to our recycling unit for the Rag Bag Collection last week. Your help is much appreciated 🙂
Today P7 welcomed Fiona Shaw who is a Development Officer for Education Scotland. Her role is to work with schools to ensure everyone has equality of opportunity, particularly with careers and subject choice. We engaged with a variety of tasks which raised our awareness of stereotypes . There was a lot of thought provoking conversations which really made us all think about unconscious bias. Many thanks to Fiona for joining us.
Yesterday, we did a litter pick around Mansfield Park. We wanted to do this because we have seen East Calder and how much plastic and litter there is, so we wanted to help we also wanted people to see us and think that they should probably stop dropping litter if these primary school children are picking it up . 13 children and their parents/carers joined in to help us clear East Calder. We started small at Mansfield Park and we collected lots of litter mostly, glass, crisp packets, straws and lots more. If you joined in thank you for helping us with doing this picking lots of litter up.

We had a fantastic time on our first family trip. We went to Almond Valley Heritage Centre for the day. The wet weather didn’t stop the children from having lots of fun with their family and friends, splashing around in the puddles, visiting the animals, jumping on the trampolines, digging in the sand and exploring all the new outdoor adventures.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank all our families for their continued support throughout the year and wish the nursery leavers all the very best in their new adventures at school.
Have a fantastic summer, hopefully with lots of sun!
We will look forward to seeing our nursery returners in the new term.
House Point Winners 2018-2019
The house points for this school session have been counted and the overall winners are….. CALDERHALL. Well done!
If your child is in Calderhall House they will receive their ‘house treat’ on Thursday afternoon (27th June). The house treat this year is a DVD in the hall with a small snack provided for them. If your child would like they can bring in a small blanket/cushion or cuddly in with them on Thursday to take to the hall for the DVD.
It was very close so well done to all our pupils on receiving so many house points throughout the year for their effort, positive attitude and behaviour in school.
Primary 3D have been exploring a range of media to create props for a shadow puppet performance. The created storyboards to recreate the story of the Iron Man by Ted Hughes and used different objects and materials to bring the story to life. We all had a great time working together to create these pieces, well done everyone.
We would like to invite Primary 7 parents and carers to join us for tea and coffee as a final farewell on Friday morning from 11.50, before piping the children out round the quad before they leave. Hope to see you all there. Miss Conner and Mrs Stewart.
What a week for Primary 7 last week! Due to their fantastic fundraising skills all pupils raised enough to cover the cost of their party! The evening was a huge success (even Miss Conner and Mrs Stewart had a bounce).
They were well and truly spoilt with an hour of play, hot dogs or pizza and lots of sweet treats too! Despite all the energy used on Wednesday night they still managed to pull off two outstanding performances in their Leaver’s Assembly on Thursday!
Well Done P7!
