abilities to the full.
Another fantastic trophy to celebrate the success of cheerleading dance group in P5- very well done!
We are planning a welly walk with the children to celebrate and try out our waterproof trousers that the PSA kindly purchased. We will be doing this during outdoor group time on a wet day when there are lots of puddles. Rather than ask parents to sponsor the children, we are asking for kind donations to help us raise further funds to buy more waterproof trousers. A donation tub is in the main foyer beside the registers. Your donations would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks
Children will need to bring a packed lunch on Monday 17th February and Tuesday 18th February as the school kitchen will be closed.
Many thanks

On Friday Primary 7/6L visited the Sky Academy studios to film our own news report on a topic we find particularly important to our class. Our class sponsor an orangutan from the WWF and through our science context last term we began researching endangered animals. We created and shared persuasive presentations with our class and also the school and our parents through our class assembly. We worked in 4 teams to research and script part of a report before visiting the studios on Friday. We then finished researching and writing our scripts on ipads to be used as an autocue for our reporters to share in our report. We all had a role within our studio groups. Each studio had a producer, director, editor, camera person, presenter/ reporter and an eye witness or expert to share their knowledge. We reported in detail on the most endangered list, the threats to endangered animals, some species in particular and also what we can do to help. We then watched our completed report in a cinema before taking a tour of the Sky building.
On Thursday afternoon P7/6L spent the afternoon working with Alan Hamilton in class to learn more about World War 2. We went through a detailed timeline of the war, beginning with the end of WW1. What was particularly fascinating was looking at a world map clearly showing the Allies, Axis and neutral countries in different colours. This clearly demonstrated the shift in power for the Allied countries throughout the war. We took part in a quiz and also looked at some artifacts from the war including jackets worn by paratroopers on D-day and also coins issued by King George to the families of soldiers lost during the war.
Many thanks to all our family and friends for coming along to join us at our assembly today.
We have been finding out all about our place in the world.
As a homework task we found out where we were born and where our parents and grandparents were born. We looked at some of the places on a world map.
Its been Scotland Love Languages week and we have been learning to say hello in different languages.
We have also been bringing in photos to show who we look like in our family and to see if we have the same hair and eye colour as our parents. We are learning about inheritance in Science. We didn’t have time to include these in our assembly so we will use them to make a class display.
We loved the story about ‘How The Animals Got Their Tails’, and have been discussing the news about the bush fires in Australia.
Well done P3R! You should all feel very proud of your performance!
A very impressive trophy for Dancer of the Day! Well done!
