Hi everyone,

P7 have had a busy week with lots of extra curricular activities. On Tuesday a lovely artist from Edinburgh called Astrid came in to do some artwork with the children. She asked the children to design different letters of the alphabet for a mural at the Blackburn Partnership Center when it is completed. The designs have turned out lovely and I have some photos to share of the children working hard with Astrid’s ideas.

The children also completed their verse for CAB and were singing with YAP musicians today which was lovely to listen to and take part. The song will be sung at the CAB conference in April with the rest of the Bathgate cluster and will be recorded after this. The song has been adapted to be about people who help us to the song of “Count on me,” by Bruno Mars.

Also a little note to say a huge congratulations to Wiktoria Tyloch who won the class display contest. The class were challenged to create a Learning Pit display, using ideas from Growth Mindset. These displays were about ideas of how some people can feel like they are in a pit when learning something they do not feel confident with, and then how they could get out of this pit with help and support. It was a tough decision as everyone created lots of fantastic ideas but the final winner was Wiktoria. The display is nearly finished and it looks fabby.

Hope everyone has a lovely weekend,

Miss Moir
