P4 had a fabulous time today trying out the new school scooters. We had a great session with the instructors where we played games and even had a go at limbo on a scooter. We look forward to trying them out again soon!
WW2 Context P7B
As we come to the end of our WW2 context in 7B I would just like to say a big thank you to the members of the class who brought in their precious WW2 family artefacts. It was great for the class to see and handle these items as it really added a personal touch, allowing the class to see how war impacted families throughout Scotland.
P1 news
We had a very active week in Primary 1 this week. We enjoyed our visit from the SSPCA where we learned all about Scottish wildlife and what to do if we found any animals that were sick or in danger.
We also went on a Santa Stroll around our school grounds and the surrounding area. It was great fun! We had to spot letter clues on our journey and note them down in pairs. At the end we slid all the sounds together to make a Christmas phrase…’ Santa Claus’.
P4 SSPCA workshop
P4 had a wonderful morning session with the SSPCA education officer. We learned all about their job and became rescue officers ourselves when we had to solve the problems that had happened to the different animals. We then got to do some coding and plan some sequences for our robotic animals. It was great fun!
Busy Day in P6
The Primary 6s had a fun-packed day today; we had a visit from SSPCA Officer Lyndsey, who led a fun and informative session about the work done by this organisation. We had a chance to ‘rescue’ a variety of animals and then used coding to program a virtual cat!
In the afternoon, we settled down to watch our yearly festive panto. This year’s show was ‘Puss’n’Boots’, which was streamed live into our classrooms and which we all thoroughly enjoyed; plenty of audience participation and some yummy snacks too (thank you, PSC).
P5, P5/4 and P4 Fischy Music
We were lucky to have the opportunity to take part in a Fischy Music session last week. Everyone was so excited to see the people from Fischy Music who we have seen so many times on screen in Assemblies! We sang songs that we know so well and we learned a few new songs too. One of the songs reminded us of the importance of friendship and the qualities that make a good friend.
We really enjoyed our learning and Miss Cameron, Miss Beattie and Miss Marra certainly spotted some future performers among us. We are looking forward to using some of the new songs we learned to support our learning in class.

P3 Art
The pupils drew still life pictures using beautiful flowers as their inspiration. They were trying to add lots of detail. Amazing concentration and great works of art.
Primary 1 Music
On Monday we had an exciting and active music session with Fischy Music. We danced and sang to some familiar and some new songs. Primary 1 had a great time!
In class we were busy preparing for the Fayre at Tots Spot on Saturday. We have practised our measuring to make reindeer food to sell at the fayre.
P3 Fischy Music
This week we were very lucky to receive a visit from Fischy Music. It was amazing to see them as we sing their songs during assembly most weeks. We got to sing and dance along to tunes we know and learn some new ones too. Great fun was had by all.
P3 Outdoor Learning
This week during Outdoor Learning with Miss Gillies we found natural resources and used our imagination to create pictures.
