Pumpherston and Uphall Station CPS Blog
A place for news, information and sharing learning from PUSCPS
Our P7 Magical Mediators took part in a special training event at Tynecastle in Edinburgh on Thursday. Schools from across Scotland came
together to enjoy a circus themed day and to brush up on their mediation skills. Mrs Ross and Mrs Bonner said our P7s were a credit to our school.
Primary 7 were given the opportunity to run for House and Vice Captains. They were set the following challenge and the children who did not want to apply, supported their Pumpie Pals peers.
On Friday we had the election and it was very competitive as the presentations were excellent. It was obvious that all the children but a lot of time, effort and thought into what they wanted to say.
A huge well done to everyone who took part!

Introducing our 2019/20 House and Vice Captains
Today Primary 7 were set the challenge of creating a poster to demonstrate how to safely use the pump track.
First of all they used Kahoot to assess their knowledge of bicycle safety.
We discussed what a pump track was and it is different from other bicycle tracks. Then we watched a YouTube video which gave us some tips on how to use it safely and made notes. We also discussed what advice we could give to younger children in our school about the pump track.
They then used their notes to create a pump track safety poster for the children in our school.
Watch this space for their final posters!
