On Wednesday, Team Pumphy (Miss McLaughlin, Miss Young & Sarah-Jane) set off for Glasgow to attend the Scottish Education Awards.
As you know, we had been shortlisted for the ‘Parents as Partners in Learning’ award for all of the fantastic work we have undertaken with Sarah-Jane. The award covers applicants from all schools in Scotland and the standard of entries this year was unbelievably high.
We had made it to the final with two other schools : Long Calderwood Primary School and St John Ogilive High School. We were awarded the runner-up position and given £200 to go towards future projects. Congratulations to St John Ogilvie High School, who won our category. We are extremely proud of our little school for being recognised on such a grand scale. We know the work we do is fantastic and we will carry this on in the upcoming school session.
Congratulations to the other finalists from Team West Lothian – Jonathan Payne from West Calder High School (Teacher of the Year runner-up) and the Polbeth Nursery Team (Raising Attainment in Literacy runner-up).
Thanks to all parents, pupils and members of Team Pumphy for their help and support.
Miss McLaughlin 🙂

Ms. Anderson 🙂
Well done Guys! Great so see that other people are recognising how brilliant Team Pumphie is! (Did you go to the ceremony in your tribal Face paint…?)
Well done Team Pumphie! We are all so proud of you. The work done by Sarah Jane, with other parents helping, has been fantastic and is making a massive difference to our playground and the learning of all of our children.
Thank you and congratulations.
