Today, a group of our dedicated senior pupils, alongside our headteacher, paid their respects at the Blackburn War Memorial. To commemorate Remembrance Day, they created a wonderful wreath from recycled plastic bottles. This eco-friendly tribute not only honours the fallen but also demonstrates our commitment to sustainability. We are incredibly proud of our pupils for their creativity, compassion, and environmental consciousnes.
Silver Class enjoyed a trip to Edinburgh Zoo! See how many different animals you can spot?
Group 4 recently completed a book trail around Blackburn which was run in conjunction with some of the other local schools. The pupils enjoyed visiting the different locations around Blackburn to find the clues.
The pupils were delighted to receive certificates for their participation in the book trail and Cody was the lucky winner of a £10 book token. Well done everyone!
Purple class enjoyed a lovely walk through the woods at Beecraigs and some time to play at the park. Everyone had a fantastic day out!
Group 4 were delighted to win our YPI competition yesterday with £3000 being awarded to our charity OPAL Cyrenians. The charity supports older people in the community by running a range of groups and activities. The charity are going to use the money to create a hub area where they can have coffee mornings and other events at their offices in Bathgate.
It was a fantastic afternoon with some great presentations from all the groups involved. Well done everyone!

Group 1 have been measuring different lengths this week. They have used cubes and rulers to measure their hand lengths. Next they counted how many cubes they could hold and investigated if bigger hands could hold more cubes. They stood in order of hand length then stood in order of how many cubes they could hold. One pupil also plotted the results in a graph. 
Yellow Class have enjoyed lots of literacy themed activities to celebrate literacy fortnight. We walked to Blackburn library and looked for books that interested us. We learned that some books in the library are in alphabetical order by author and some use a numbering system. These helped us to find the books we wanted quicker!
Back in school we loved the World Book Day character hunt where we had to find the hidden characters all around the school.
During Literacy Fortnight, Group 6 had a lot of fun taking Spider-Man out in the community on fun adventures. We then got creative and used our photos to make storyboards which we presented to the class. We had a lot of fun!
