Meet the Pirates
Pirates of the Curry Bean – Introduction
Pirates of the Curry Bean
Visitors travelled from across the UK and even Europe, to Mid Calder Primary School this week to view the Primary 6 and 7 production of Pirates of the Curry Bean. The Primary 6 and 7 pupils and staff have worked very hard over the past 6 weeks to pull everything together, it was great to see the pupils taking a lead in everything from acting to singing, lights to dancing, props to prompting … a true team effort from the pupils who were facilitated by their teachers and school staff. It definitely was better than ‘alright on the night’ with the pupils being the true stars of the show! We received lots of lovely feedback from our guests who commented on how it was nice to see the pupils being so involved in the production, the jokes were great, a fantastic show and a it was a real feel-good show.
A big well done to all the pupils, staff and parents for their team effort in making the show such a huge success.
Watch this space for some video clips … coming soon!
Sports Day
This week we had our Mid Calder Primary School Sports Day, which for the first time in a very long time managed to happen on the day we had planned it, thanks to the sunshine. The children took part in a variety of potted sports in their house teams and the favourite by far was the tug of war, which even some of the teachers joining in!
A big well done to Mrs Mitchell, our P.E. teacher for organising Sports Day for us and for the Primary 7 helpers. A big thank you to all the parents, family and carers that came along to support the event.
The winning house will be announced at assembly on Friday.
The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe
This week M & M productions visited us to put on a performance of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. The pupils enjoyed the performance and will now follow this up in class with a piece of writing around the play.

WCHS Anti-Bullying Visit
Four sixth year pupils and a science teacher from West Calder High School visited P7s on Monday. They came to talk about transition and their role as school mentors. They talked about cyber bullying and from the photograph above you can see Ruby as a mobile phone!
Three of the students are ex-pupils of MCPS and it was lovely to see them again.

In Term 3 Almondell won the House Cup. Andi and Keigan decided they would like to plan a party for their house. Andy planned a game of corners, then some refreshments and dancing games. Ellie brouhgt her candy floss machine in and made everyone in the house candy floss.
Well done girls for planning such a fab party and thank you to all the Primary 7s that helped!
