Parent/ Carer Self Evaluation Questionnaire

As part of our ongoing commitment to self evaluation, you will receive a self evaluation questionnaire this week in your child’s school bag. If you would prefer to complete it online you can download the questionnaires below and return them to the school email address. These questionnaires will be similar to those you received during the inspection process. We would be very grateful if you could take some time to complete them and return them to school.

Easter Service

Today we invited Rev. Povey and our families along to our Easter Service.

Our brass players played some tunes for us.

P1-3 and P4-7 sang songs.

Primary 4 and Rev. Povey told us about the Easter Story.

We recognised the winners for the Spring Family Learning Task, and every child who took part got 3 Dojo points.

We gave out the West Lothian Competition Sumdog Awards.

Look at our presentation below to see our Spring family learning task entries.

A big thank you to Mrs Campbell and Mrs Dickie for organising the Service, and to the Rev. Povey for joining us. We all hope you have a lovely Easter holiday.

4-4-2 Reading Challenge

Livingston FC, West Lothian Youth Foundation, the SPFL Trust and Scottish Book Trust have teamed up to launch a pioneering pilot project, which aims to encourage kids to read.

The Lions are working in partnership with 14 SPFL clubs and local libraries, to deliver the 4-4-2 Reading Challenge which aims to inspire children aged 5-12 to read four books in exchange for match tickets.

The initiative centres on a reading “challenge card” which participating clubs and libraries will issue. For every book read, children will receive a stamp on their card.

When they have read four books, participants will receive a FREE match ticket for a home league match at The Tony Macaroni Arena, while an accompanying adult will be able to purchase a discounted ticket.

We are delighted to be part of this initiative, and our children are lucky they have a library on their doorstop. Our cards will be arriving this week and children can visit our Community Library at the times below to borrow a book and collect their card.

  • Monday: 2:00-5:00pm
  • Wednesday: 2:30 – 4:30pm
  • Thursday 2:00-6:00pm
