Pumpherston and Uphall Station CPS Blog
A place for news, information and sharing learning from PUSCPS
Some of the boys and girls in P1 took the Marvellous Me boxes home last week for the first time this year. After filling the boxes with items that were special to them, they gave a presentation about what they had brought in and why. Well done to everyone last Friday and we can’t wait to see what’s inside this weeks boxes!
P1 had a fantastic trip to Mill Farm today. They experienced sun, rain and hail all in the one day but that didn’t stop the fun! This was a great way to finish our ‘Let it Grow’ topic as the children were able to meet lots of animals and ask the staff questions. We were so impressed with the excellent behaviour, manners and interest shown from all the children.
After our chicks left last week, P1 were set a technology challenge to design and build a new chick home. The children made detailed plans for their design and set about building magnificent houses using a range of materials. Everyone was so impressed by their creativity and focus.
The March Maths Contest starts this Friday, 15th March. Children can play in the contest at school and home. Good luck and we look forward to seeing some PUSCPS pupils on the leaderboard!
The children in P1 have shown their caring nature and empathy this week while looking after the chicks.
Our little chick Lucky has been to the vet as we noticed she had a damaged leg. She is now recovering with her new splint with one of her sisters to keep her company. Â She should be back in school on Monday!
What a lovely surprise P1 had when they came into their class this morning. One chick had hatched and throughout the day four more! There have been lots of conversations about the process of hatching and what happens to the chicks next. We will keep you posted!

It has been short but busy week for P1. They have been rehearsing for a very special assembly next month. Making invitations was our first job so that we had an audience. They had to write down all the important information an invitation needs and then design the cover. They will be ready to come home on Monday!
Mrs McJimpsey and Mrs Hardie had an exciting call on Wednesday after school. The man said that he had heard Primary 1 are learning about how different living things grow and how to care for them. He would like to give us some eggs to look after in our classroom. We shared ideas about what might be inside. Here are some ideas:
The eggs will arrive on Monday and we can investigate further!
