We are looking forward to welcoming Hopscotch to our school on Monday 2nd September to perform their new show ‘SPRING-Y’ to our P1-7 pupils.
This adventurous tale will show how friendship and bouncing back from adversity can be supported in Scottish schools. ‘SPRING-Y’ will be an amazing way to support our schools resilience message.
‘SPRING-Y’ is a touching tale about friendship, bouncing back and bending with the wind! It follows the story of Ash and Holly who have been best friends for years but now Holly has to move away. How will the two cope without each other? Together they come up with a plan so that their friendship will last forever.

P1 – P7 pupils participated in a sponsored half marathon event and with the help from EiC events (the Edinburgh Marathon organisers) we achieved a whole school time of under 2 hours.
Well done to all our staff and pupils who took part and a big thank you to Mr Millar for organising the event.
Well done to the Salvesen Boys Football Club (2007 Year) who recently won the football tournament they competed in. What an amazing achievement! It was this proud P7’s turn to keep the trophy for a couple of weeks. Fantastic team spirit display by the boys football team. Well done!
Well done to our pupils who took part in the Brodies Team Swimming Championships at the Royal Commonwealth Pool in Edinburgh on Wednesday. Our girls performed in the Freestyle Relay and the Medley Relay and did amazingly well! We are very proud of their efforts. What a fantastic experience for you all 🙂

LENDRICK MUIR
What a great time our P5 pupils and staff had at P5 Camp last week! They had a busy but very enjoyable time at Lendrick Muir and will have lots of happy memories about their time spent there with their friends. A special thanks goes to Miss Jamieson, Miss Cameron , Mrs Hearn and Mrs Sandison who accompanied the children to camp this year. Without our dedicated staff giving up their own time we would not be able to offer these valuable residential experiences for our pupils.
Our P5 pupils and staff are having an enjoyable time at Lendrick Muir. There were lots of smiling faces when I went along to visit them this afternoon and a few tired looking faces too! Everyone has been enjoying their activities and they’ve managed to avoid most of the heavy rain showers! There was lots of excited chat about their favourite activities so far and highlights of their first school residential.
Below are a few photos from Lendrick Muir. We’re looking forward to seeing lots more photos and hearing all about their experiences once their back home. I think everyone will be in need of their holiday weekend to recover from their fun-filled trip away.
