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.

Veda comes to P1!

P1 were very excited when Veda and her owner Bill came to visit today.

Veda is an ex-guide dog who now works as a therapet. She visits schools, hospitals and people’s homes to make them feel happy and more confident.

Veda loves to listen to stories. She will be visiting every Thursday this term to read with children in P1.  I bet she’s impressed when she hears our super reading!

Primary 1 have green fingers!

We are Learning about the different parts of a plant and what they need

Primary 1 have been busy this week learning about the different parts of a plant and what they need to grow. We planted our own beans and are looking forward to watching them grow.
We know what a plant needs to grow:

Eva: They need sun to grow
Kenzie: They need water
Maisie: They need to be in soil
Harrison: When the flowers get bigger we need to move them into a bigger pot.

Calder Pyjama Party!

As Calder received the most Dojos last term, they requested a pyjama party. Jessica and Katie organised a range of games, pyjama corners, pass the pillow, stuff the pillow and bed sheet parachute games. We also had lots of nice treats for snacks. Thank you to all the Primary 7 Young Leaders who helped to organised the party.

 

Happiness!

This morning at assembly we launched Emotion Works by looking at the emotion of happiness!

We first of all watched a clip about ‘joy’ from Inside Out.

Primary 6 helped us to understand different words for happiness.

Then we looked at how we feel and what triggers us to feel happiness.

We then watched a video that showed how we show happiness at PUSCPS, we also discussed how music and other people smiling can make us feel happy and smile. M

We finished our assembly with our Living our Values Certificates.
