Today our nursery children shared some of their favourite songs with us and even danced! We also presented our pre-school children with a scroll and a gift to wish them on their way to Primary 1!
Thank you to all our families who joined us for our assembly and to the nursery staff for organising it.
Almond will have a Pyjama Party on Wednesday 26th June at 11am for winning the house points this term.
As we have the P7 Celebration Assembly in the morning children should BRING their PJs or party clothes to change into for the party.
Sorry for the short notice about the party but we wanted the children to enjoy their treat before the end of term.

It has been lovely meeting all our new nursery children and families on  our recent home visits.
Our Induction evening for parents and carers on Tuesday 18th June at 6pm, is an opportunity for you to find out more about the structure of the day, Â how we learn at nursery and to visit our nursery. It will be held in the school gym hall.
Those families who are moving from am/pm sessions to full days, may also want to attend to find out more information.
Families who are starting with us after August are also welcome to attend. We will arrange a home visit and a play date for your child in the  new school session.
We look forward to meeting you then.
We would like to invite you to view a short film on Thursday 20th June at 6pm. The film is about resilience in children, an issue that many schools across West Lothian have been focussing on and will continue to focus on in the coming sessions. The film, which has already been shown to many of our professionals in education and health, aims to provide an understanding of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and the impact that these can have on children and their education.
We will also screen a children’s film in the hall where children of primary school age will be supervised to allow adults to attend the resilience film screening in the P7 classroom. Tea and coffee will also be available.
In order to help us to plan catering and supervision requirements, please contact our office and let them know you would like to attend.
We look forward to welcoming you then.
We are SUPER excited to announce that this awesome author in P4 has been selected to represent our cluster (PUSCPS, Broxburn PS, Kirkhill PS, Uphall PS & Dechmont PS) at the West Lothian Stellar Awards!
Big congratulations!
