P2C had an amazing time at Dynamic Earth last week and learned lots through different scientific experiments.
They enjoyed learning about different types of extreme weather and having a guided tour of the different areas of the museum.
Great time had by all!
Very well done. You took your learning to the next level for your personal talk on The Life or the Celts. Your shield, sword and helmet were amazing!
P2C have been working hard on their numeracy and literacy skills in lots of creative ways. Fabulous learning P2C. We have been looking at our sounds and have been learning ‘th’, ‘sh’ and ‘ch’ so far.
We have been learning about similes in Primary 5. Can you match the simile to the teacher it describes?
The similes:
as fun as a pet.
as small as an ant.
as shiny as a golden pancake.
as fit as a cheetah.
as funny as a monkey
as smart as a scientist.
as nice as a flower.
as wise as a fox.
like a funny bunny.
The Teachers:
Mrs Stewart, Miss Cameron, Mrs Robertson, Mr Eagleson, Mrs Spence, Miss Marra, Mrs Hearn, Mrs Mitchell, Mrs Donnelly
Do you swim competitively? Would you be interested in taking part in the West Lothian Schools Swimming Heats?
Please let your teacher know you are interested and an application form will be arranged. Please note that application forms require notification of current times for each event and these must be within the consideration times. All is explained in the letter.

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.
