Rotary Quiz Winners!!!!
Four of our amazing P7s – Donatella, Olivia, Rory and Kaden – today took part in the Broxburn heat of the annual Rotary Quiz.
The four of them were fantastic – sensible, confident and knowledgeable.  The team impressed and excited us all by winning the quiz – AND – because their score of 55 was the highest in West Lothian they also go through to the Area Final at St Francis Xavier School, Falkirk on May 19.  The winner of this round will compete in the National Final in Carluke on June 3.
We could not be more proud of our fantastic pupils. Â Well done Team Pumphie.

Families Learning Together session 5
Yesterday we had our 5th Families Learning Together – Sharing Learning session. Â We had a fantastic turnout and there was a great buzz in the room as mums, dads, carers, grans, grandads, uncles and aunts all spent time talking about learning with their child.
We have two further FLT sessions before the summer holiday and P1 pupils will also be included in these for the first time.
These are: Â Tuesday 23 May 5pm-6pm & Wednesday 14 June 11am-12pm.
Respect for Others
Yesterday at assembly we spoke about respect. Â We focussed on how to treat and speak to other people showing respect.
We also talked about the importance of taking responsibility for your own actions, how to put it right when accidents happen in which others are hurt and we talked about safety in the playground.
We discussed our playground rules, reinforced how pupils are expected to behave in the playground and made it very clear that any games which involve physical contact are not permitted. Â This is in response to an increase of silly games involving grabbing, pushing and holding down, etc. which, like play fighting, always get out of hand.
