A reminder that all our primary 1 children will be presenting their assembly on Friday June 7th at 9:15 a.m. in the dining hall. Please access via the dining room door in the quad playground.
After our assembly you are invited to join us for a ‘free flow’ session, where you can go with your child to the P1 classroom of their choice to play and learn! We will be tidying up at 10:30 in time to say goodbye and then have our morning break.
Many thanks.
Primary 1 Information Meeting for Parents/Carers
We are looking forward to welcoming our pre-school parents/carers to our school on Tuesday 28th May at 6.00pm. We are delighted that your child will be starting Primary 1 at East Calder Primary in August. We hope that our Information Evening will provide you with all the information you require and that any questions you have will be answered.
Our Information Evening will begin with a presentation which will outline the arrangements for your child starting Primary 1 in August. It will also give you some practical ideas about how you can help your child get ready for the transition to school. Following the presentation there will be an opportunity for parents/carers to visit the P1 classrooms and meet the Primary 1 teachers. For anyone who would like it, there will also be an opportunity to have a tour of the school.
We look forward to seeing you on Tuesday evening!
On Wednesday Primary 1 visited Jupiter Artland. We had a super time, looking and talking about the sculptures. We explored the natural environment and collected resources. After lunch we took part in a workshop to create our own Jovians, aliens from Jupiter!
Today was Miss Walkingshaw’s last day in class. We will all miss her, and we wish her well. This morning she taught us how to follow instructions to construct a handmade kite. We then went onto the field to run and try to fly them!
Primary 1 had a special visitor this week from Museum Services.
She brought lots of toys that people played with in the past.
We played with some of the toys and in class we’re trying to make some too!
We talked about the different materials that the old toys were made of.
In class we’re sorting old toys and new toys. We are making a Toy Shop, Toy Museum and a Toy Cafe.
Welcome back Primary 1!
We have had a very busy week learning to tell the time. We are learning to tell the time to the hour and the half hour.
We have also been doing some lovely writing, working hard to remember finger spaces and to sound out our words.
On Monday we are all off to East Calder Library to choose new books, fingers crossed for good weather!
At indoor lunchtime today our P7 pupils kept the younger pupils entertained in class. They were fantastic role models! One of our P7 Buddies kept a group of P1 children mesmorised with his magic tricks – what a captive audience he had 🙂
