Life of P7
During the first two weeks in P7 we have been working on our House Captain Election presentations. It has been a lot of fun, creating our own posters to put around the school, making videos and having fun when we were doing the presentations. We worked with other team mates to help them with their video, Powerpoint and speeches. We were nervous but we all really enjoyed it. We were all very supportive of each other and we are looking forward to celebrating the results at assembly.
We are very excited about the start of a new year in P7. This week we created our P7 Class Charter and we have been working hard to follow it throughout the week. We hope this will help us have a successful and enjoyable P7.

Dear Parent/Carer
When we left school for the holidays in June everything seemed in place for the start of the new school session, but we have begun the session with no P7 teacher. We are very pleased Miss Tuke has secured a permanent position as principal teacher in East Lothian but it has altered the planning we had in place for our upper primary children. However, we have been very fortunate to have Mr Clancy return to the school and he will work with Mrs Redmond to teach the P7 class until we have a new Acting PT in position. Despite this setback we have had a very good start to the new term and the children seem very settled in their new classes. The new Primary 1 children have already embraced the school routine for coming in with Miss Prior and Mrs Walker having lovely quiet classes to begin the day.
The children have been looking at the school aims, with each class taking an aim and looking closely at what it means for us in our school. They will present to each other at our assembly this week so everyone will be aware of what the aims mean to the children and staff and that these are the aims we will live and learn by.
I have high expectations of what I believe our children can achieve and having spent a lot of time in classes over the first few days I believe our children and staff have high aspirations of what they can achieve. I thought I would share a poem about always doing your best and if we all do our best then we can reach these aspirations we have! Mary McKenzie

P7 Leaver’s Party
Tonight the school was open after hours for some very excited P7 pupils. After many busy things over the last few weeks with transition to high school, M&Ds and their Leaver’s assembly they got to let their hair down at their Leaver’s Party. Everyone was dressed to impressed with beautiful dresses and smart shirts, they all looked so grown up! It may have been one of the wettest days we’ve had for months but they didn’t let that stop them having fun.
They enjoyed some chips and ice-cream, party games and entertainment from a fantastic DJ who used all their choices for the play list making it very specific to them.
Here are some pictures from their evening. A big thank you to all the staff who also came along to help make the evening such a great success.
Cunnigar Term 4 House Party
There was a great sense of achievement as Cunnigar won the House Cup for Term 4. Holly and Sean organised a Glitz and Glam Party, with games, food and lots of dancing. A big well done to all the Primary 7s in Cunnigar who helped to organise the party.
Sports Day
On Monday, we had a great sports day in the sunshine! The pupils enjoyed taking part in all of the activities. Congratulations to the winning house, Almondell! Thanks to everyone involved in organising the day and to those who were able to come along and support.
P7s at M&Ds
The P7s enjoyed an amazing end of year trip to M&Ds. They had an amazing time and was great to see them all having fun together and making great memories. A big thank you to the PSA who funded the trip.
Term 4 Celebration Assembly
Today we had our final Celebration Assembly. The Technical Troopers past and present were recognised for their contributions across our whole school community, from supporting teachers to setting up for CEMs, presenting to WL Head Teachers and staff to organising our Digital Award Accrediation. They have worked very hard to embed digital learning across our school and nursery.
We awarded Remarkable, STEM Superstars and Top Scorers for the term. Congratulations to everyone who received an award.
Congratulations to Cunigar for winning the house cup this term.
