P7 pupils have been using a range of technology in their learning to complete e-forms in GLOW. Some pupils have been using their own devices.

P7 Pupil Learning Conversations
The pupils were set a variety of literacy and numeracy homework activities this week. This morning in class we shared our work and discussed different strategies used to help us learn. The pupils developed skills in peer assessment, communication and problem solving.
Support your child at home with their homework to help them share their strategies in class.
Building a Reading Den
In vertical groups, we battled against the elements to build awesome reading dens outdoors. As the weather is improving, try to get outdoors and building your own reading den. Upload your photos to the blog 🙂
The children developed skills in communication, problem solving, organisation and team work.
Happy Easter from P7
We accompanied the whole school to the local church in Blackburn to enjoy a fantastic drama presented by The LightHouse Club. We enjoyed walking to and from the church with our P1 buddies. Last Easter service as part of Murrayfield Primary for the P7 pupils!! One more term and we’re moving on. Happy Easter to all! See you all on Monday 9th April, ready for a busy term focusing on the transition to Secondary School 🙂
Burn scramble
An invigorating walk through the burn at Dounans. Guaranteed to wash away any cobwebs! These action photos were taken by Mrs Sneddon using her GoPro.
Dounans 2018
We hope you have all had a lovely weekend! On behalf of the staff who attended Dounans this year, we’d like to thank our happy campers for their excellent behaviour, lovely manners and great company over the week. It was great to see you achieve things you doubted you would be able to do, to see you overcome fears and support each other in so many different ways. Your children were a credit to you and it was wonderful to hear the praise from instructors and other adults who commented regularly on what a lovely group they were.
Here are a few more photos which I have just downloaded from the Ipad. Sorry they are a bit later than the others. Before anyone panics, I’d like to point out that the photos which look as though there are children falling from trees are actually a highly controlled descent facilitated by one of the instructors who encouraged the children to adopt a Superman pose on the way down! They loved it! I think you will also agree from the looks on their faces at the raft building activity, they had so much fun, even though the water was, to quote Zander, “a bit fresh”.
Glad to see that you have enjoyed sharing our experiences throughout the week.
P6 & P7 Campers – Homeward Bound!
Happy to report that our campers are on the bus and heading home after what has been an amazing week. Estimated time of arrival is between 11.45am – 12.00pm depending on the traffic. If there are going to be any major delays, then we will contact you again using Groupcall.
We look forward to seeing them all and welcoming them home. Remember, you can collect your child at this time and take them home….most will probably be exhausted and looking for a wee cuddle : )
