School Teams

We  have had a busy few weeks at LVPS. Our netball team played a friendly with our friends from Riverside PS. Both teams played really well with lots of fantastic passing and great goals scored. Our next match is on Feb 22nd at Parkhead Primary.

Our 2 basketball teams took part in the West Lothian Primary league Tournament. They played really well and a big thank you to Abby and Ms Taylor for being fantastic coaches.

The girls football team are training every Tuesday and are working really hard. They have their next match scheduled for Feb 16th.

The school football team have been in winter shutdown mode but I have managed to secure two matches in March. We play Knightsridge on March 7th at LVPS and Meldrum away on March 21st. I am also delighted to announce that Stevie Johnston from WLFA (also a parent of a P1 child in our school) is going to provide football training sessions for the team on a Tuesday lunchtime. This will start on Tuesday 20th February.

Our school handball team took part in the final round of fixtures of the Livingston Handball league. I am very proud to announce that our school are the Livingston Champions!!! Well done team. This was a very competitive league and all 15 members of the team have contributed significantly. We are all very proud! We have now qualified for the WL Championships in March with 5 other teams. The top 2 teams will then go on to the National Championships to represent WL. Watch this space.

If your child is part of one of our 5 teams above. Please keep encouraging them to check the sports noticeboard outside the gym hall. This is updated every Friday by our Sports Captains. No letters are issued for training sessions. Letters will only be issued when their is a match to be played.

Learning Reflection for W/E 12.01.18

Maths

   

This week we have been learning how to subtract an amount from a group and then counting what is left to find the answer.

Scotland Focus

   

We started our Scotland topic by having a discussion about what we already know about Scotland. Here are the children’s responses:

Caleb – I live in Scotland

Andrew – The American president is Scottish and he is not a real president

Maizy – Scotland is a very cold place

Nathan – Scotland is a country

Andrew – I am a lucky boy because I was born and live in Scotland

Highlights of the week

Andrew – being a news reader, I was asking a person who saw Nessie questions

Emma – I learned about Nessie

Aakruti – we made a play dough Nessie

Maizy – Learning about subtraction, it’s when you take away

Maddie – the take away sign means subtraction

Sophia – Nessie lives in Loch Ness

Holly – I like doing word building, rock and sock rhyme, they end with special friend ck

Ms King – My highlight was noticing how much the children have grown over the two week holiday, not just in height but in their attitude towards learning.

Happy New Year to all, I hope you had a lovely rest over the festive holidays and are ready for a very busy term!

Read Two/To Buddies

The children had a great afternoon on Monday working together with their ‘Read To’ buddy in P4/P1

The children told a Christmas story, wrote a story book and some made elf puppets where others played a snowman dice game.  The engagement level was very high as they worked together and helped each other with ideas, writing cutting and drawing.
