A big thank you to all the primary 3 helpers who came along to the Health Open Evening to show the parents all the different fitness classes we can do with Cyber Coach. You were all great and the evening was a terrific success.  Everyone is having great fun today wearing their pyjamas to school. Primary 3 had a fashion show where all the boys and girls walked the catwalk to show off their stylish bedtime wear!
P7’s Week
P6 and P7 football team represented the school at Mid Calder Gala on Wednesday. We played brilliantly, the team work was excellent and we really enjoyed it.
We settled well back into school life after our camp experience.
Our Health and Wellbeing curriculum evening was very successful and 8 of us taught our parents about keeping safe at home. Thank you to Bruce, Ashley, Declan, Lewis T, Wiktoria, Danielle, Lauryn and Megan.
P2 Sculptures
As promised in an earlier post here are some of the wonderful sculptures in the style of Andy Goldsworthy that the P2 children made from the materials they collected. Enjoy!

Primary 2 learn about Kiddush Cups
Last week Primary 2 children made Kiddush cups. Kiddush cups are used by the Jewish people on Shabbat. The cup we saw on the internet was more than 100 years old. Kiddush cups are for drinking wine out of, after you say a blessing.  We will learn more about Shabbat in Primary 3.
P5 Weekly Blog
It has been another busy week in P5! This week we have been learning about similies. We are now hoping we will be able to use them in our writing. We were also learning about bones and why they are important. We did a problem solving activity where we made our own skeletons. When they were finished we got them dancing to a little bit of Michael Jackson’s Thriller!
Primary 3
This week our two new eco reps have been chosen who will represent the class in primary 4. Well done Hannah and Aaron! We have also began our new topic, hot and cold lands. We have started researching the Arctic and are discovering lots of interesting facts!
Primary 6 Poets
P6 have been writing poems in the style of poet Charles Causley’s ‘As I went down Zig Zag’. Here are some examples of our favourite stanzas:
As I went down Zig Zag
The clock striking two,
I saw a man bouncing
Like a purple kangaroo.
As i went down Zig Zag
The clock striking eight,
I saw a bike which ateÂ
A sparkly chocolate cake.
By Zoe Evans
As I went down Zig Zag
The clock striking one
I saw a man dancing
When the party was done.
As I went down zig zag
The clock striking three
I saw an old lady drinking
Tea in the sea.Â
By Connor Ramsay
As I went down Zig Zag
The clock striking eight,
I saw a boy going
For a long skate.
As I went down Zig Zag
The clock striking nine,
I saw a girl singing
A nursery rhyme.
By Ellie Hamilton
