Pumpherston and Uphall Station CPS Blog
A place for news, information and sharing learning from PUSCPS
We spent a lot of time considering which articles, from the UN convention of the rights of a child, were most suited to us in school.
We read the articles.
Highlighted the one that applied to us in school/class.
We considered the most important to us.
We then thought how we as Rights Holders could keep these rights and how the adults as Duty Bearers, can help us maintain our rights.

It was lovely to be back with all our friends again.
We started a new Numeracy topic on volume. We have been learning how to read volume scales on beakers and jugs in millilitres and litres, working out problems with volume and we have begun learning how to calculate the volume of cubes and cuboids in cubic centimetres.
In literacy, we watched a short persuasive animation and tried to work out the message it was showing us. We then looked at the different devices the animator used to persuade us and discussed how effective these were.
In art, we started using the new drawing pencils we got at the end of last term. We learned how to draw a realistic mouth.
Have a great weekend everyone.

You will be aware that from the 19th April, the nursery hours will be changing to accommodate the Early Years Expansion, as directed by the Scottish Government.
We will still have cohorts in operation from 19th April to limit children’s contact with each other and the nursery staff.
Please find information below in regards to our nursery day which follow the updated Scottish Government guidance for schools and our local risk assessment, most of which you will be familiar with but we have updated this to reflect the change in hours.
The main school office will be closed until 19th April, meaning there is no access to our main school phone number or email. Please phone 01506 280997 to report an absence or in an emergency.

A very exciting and magical afternoon at PUSCPS as Santa visited our children, from a distance. The children all wished him a Merry Christmas and asked him some questions. He reminded us to go to bed early on Christmas Eve. Thank you Santa for taking time to visit us at this very busy time for you.
