Families Reading Together – 10/05/18
School Tie Consultation
At our recent Parent Partners meeting, we agreed that we would like to change our school tie. A school tie is not a necessity, but some families choose this uniform option. The rationale behind this is that the tie would be unique to our school and it would have the same colours in our school logo and sweatshirt. Please look at the sample ties below and click yes for the tie you prefer.
Our current Primary 6 children will be issued with a new school tie, unique to them as they enter into Primary 7.
Thank you for taking part in the survey.
P1-P7 Families Learning Together
Wednesday 16th May 3:15pm
You are invited to our final Families Learning Together session of this year.
You will have an opportunity to see some of the learning which your child has been involved in this session and to help them to set targets to improve and progress.
FLT is a great chance to spend time sharing learning with your child, talking about their progress and next steps and understanding more of what they are learning before parent appointments – any member of the family is welcome.
Your child will shortly receive a slip in their school bag, please complete the slip and return to school so we know who to expect on the day.

Triathlon Coaching Session
Today, we welcomed a coach from Triathlon Scotland/West Lothian Tri to come into school and coach some of the children in P5-7 who have expressed an interest in the upcoming West Lothian Schools Triathlon. They learned about what to expect on the day and had a chance to practise some transition drills. The children taking part all really enjoyed the session and we have had a message from the coach to say how well-behaved the children were. Well done to all that took part!
Uphall Station Gala Day
Uphall Station Gala Day was previously on the agenda at one of our Parent Partner meetings, and it was agreed that we would advertise this through our normal school communication.
The Gala Day is on 9th June.
We would like our nursery and school to be represented at the Gala Day with children and parent/ carers from our school community. The parade will leave Beechwood Grove at 12:30, with our school group meeting at 12:00pm.
The theme is ‘Carnival’ and we encourage everyone taking part in the walk to dress up as much as they would like to.
The races will run from 1pm-4pm in the park, and there is range of opportunities for all our children to take part.
We will shortly be sending out a letter so that we can get an estimate of the amount of families that would like to join us on the day.
Pumpherston Junior F.C
This Saturday the club will win the league, it’s a massive achievement because it’s their first victory for 30 years!
They would like to invite any school child, accompanied by an adult to enjoy the atmosphere free of charge – wear something Black and Gold and cheer their home to victory.
Kick off is 2:30pm.

Pumpherston & Uphall Station CPS Rookie Rockstar Raffle
Dear Sir/ Madam
Our School will be holding a Rookie Rockstar Concert on the evening of Thursday 10th May. Rockie Rockstars is an initiative that was created to give children the opportunity to work with professional musicians to learn original songs, record a CD and perform in a fantastic concert. The program covers key areas of the Curriculum of Excellence: Health and Wellbeing, Expressive Arts, Religious & Moral Education, Literacy and Technologies.
At this event the Parent Partners Group are holding a raffle, we are hoping for some support from local businesses to help us with this fundraising event for our school. Â We are asking for donations for the raffle.
As your organisation is part of our local community, we hope that you are in a position to donate an item for the raffle to support the work of your community school.
We realise in this financial climate that any donation you feel able to give is very generous and would be greatly appreciated by us all; pupils, parents and staff.
If you would like us to collect your donation, please contact the school on 01506 280995 and we will make arrangements.
