Pumpherston and Uphall Station CPS Blog
A place for news, information and sharing learning from PUSCPS
The preschool nursery children celebrated their graduation on Tuesday 12th June. We would like to congratulate them as they leave nursery and move on to Primary 1. Well done!
This morning our children have moved up to meet their new teachers. Parents/ carers will receive a groupcall email/ letter detailing their child/ children’s new class teacher.
At lunch time today our new Primary 1 families joined us to sample our lunch menu and find out what it was like to be in our dinner hall.
On Tuesday 19th June we are holding our second Celebration Assembly to mark our achievements this term.
Teachers have nominated children for a STEM Superstar and Remarkable Reader Awards in each class, if your child is receiving one of these awards you should have received a special invite last week.
Two pupils from Broxburn Academy are joining us to share their achievements and inspire us.
We will also be giving out Head Teachers Awards, Sumdog Awards, Top Scorers and the House Winners, so please feel free to come along and and join us at 2:15pm if you wish.
During health week we looked at different ways we could keep our bodies healthy.
We started each day with our exercises. We stretched and then exercised until we were a little bit hot. We talked about why we felt hot, saying it was because we were making our hearts beat faster and exercising out hearts was a healthy thing to do.
Before snack we always wash our hands to wash away the germs that might be there that could give us an upset tummy. We all watched our “Handy DVD” that shows us the best way to wash our hands and tells us when we should wash our hands.
We looked at our snack and could talk about all the things that we had for snack that were healthy foods. We enjoy lots of fruit and vegetables with snack and always have milk and water.
After snack we brush our teeth and we all have our own toothbrushes with our special picture. We use a small amount of toothpaste to clean our teeth and we all know that if we do not brush our teeth they can “go bad” and “can be sore”.
We enjoy lots of outdoor play and love to use our muscles to run around, to move equipment and to play. We enjoy playing on our climbing frame, bikes, scooters and balance bikes.
The sun was shining as we joined Uphall Station for their carnival themed Gala Day. Thank you to all the families who walked with us.
Tonight we welcomed our new P1 families to find out more about life at PUSCPS and in P1.
