P6 have had a great summer holiday and have enjoyed their first week back.

We enjoyed building some diorama’s, making personal profiles and writing targets for our first term.

We have had lots of fun with Miss Moir 🙂

We are now looking forward too settling in properly to our new routine and cant wait for our year to officially start!!

Pupil and staff fun morning

Murrayfield Primary participated in the West Lothian Regional Finals of the National Schools Burns Festival in St Kent’s on Wednesday 12th March.

Leia Campbell and Abbie Heaney received a certificate of achievement for excellence in singing a Scottish song.  They sang beautifully infront of a packed assembly hall.

Sophie Chapman, Alyx Bonnes, Taylor Wood and David Charker participated in the Scots poetry section of the competition.  They were fantastic!

Runner Up p5 – Alyx Bonnes

Winner P7 – David Charker

David is the first Murrayfield Primary pupil to win this award and he will now participate in the National Finals at Prestwick Academy on Saturday 10th May.  Well done to everyone!  We are so proud of you all!  Thank you to Mrs Stewart who supported the children through the process.

Yesterday Mrs Hare’s class celebrated Commonwealth Day by wearing their trainers to school.  We did lots of stretching, running, jumping, throwing and balancing in events like sprinting, baton relay, hurdles and even weight lifting!  We are counting down the days till the Commonwealth Games in July.

Mrs Hare’s class celebrated World Book Day on Thursday by sharing our favourite books and giving a clear sense of when, who, where and what happened in the story.  Special mention goes to Jaidon who dressed-up as his favourite character.
