P7 Fair and P6 and 7 Enterprise
This week we have been informed on which p6 and 7 enterprize groups are going into the Dragon’s Den (Miss Thompson and Miss Burton are the ‘dragons’) to present their work. We have teams who are presenting such things as smoothieS, a lolly lucky dip, tea, coffee, cakes, car wash, popcorn, tattoos, pik n’mix and other exciting things too. This is all going to be presented at the P7 fair this Friday on the 12th of June. We are all very excited and I’m sure a lot of the P7s are too because we are doing a new activity called…SPONGE THE P7S!!! so as you can see it’s clearly going to be a very funny and exciting morning for everyone.

Celebrating 100 Years of Mid Calder Gala
Nursery to Primary 7 have been working on a mini learning context about Mid Calder, as they are celebrating their 100th year of Gala Days this year. Classes have been taking part in lots of different activities from walks through the village to orienteering, map reading to investigating the history of Mid Calder. Each class produced a photo frame of their learning, photos of the frames will be displayed at the front of the school on Gala Day and the Gala committee will display the frames in the village.

West Lothian Track and Field Competition
Today, 13 Primary 7 pupils represented Mid Calder Primary at West Lothian’s first Primary Track and Field event….and boy did they set a high standard for next year! Alix Fairley won both the long jump AND the shot putt events for the girls, and the girls relay team also came in first place, making Mid Calder the fastest relay team out of all of the 17 schools that took part. All 13 children were a credit to the school and themselves, showing each other fantastic support and good sportsmanship….despite the rain and hail that they had to compete in. Well done to all who were involved. Another fantastic achievement for Primary 7 this week.
