On Friday we had a digital dress down day to celebrate digital learning week. Well done to everyone who took part, we raised £48.90 and Breich raised the most!
Families Learning Together 4
On Thursday we had our fourth Families Learning Together session of the year. Family members joined their child to look at their learning progress in their jotters. Thank you to everyone who came along.
We also used this opportunity to engage families on self evaluating our school improvement plan.
Our nursery also had a Pop in and Play session and we had a fantastic turn out! Thanks to everyone who joined us.
Sharing Our Digital Learning
Digital Learning Week Assembly
Part of our improvement plan for this session was digital learning, so we used digital learning week to showcase our new skills and equipment. Today we had an assembly to celebrate our achievements!
Thank you to Shona from Sky who came along and shared her digital journey with us, reminding us that their are lots of careers for girls and boys in computing.
Thank you to our Digital Directors for presenting at assembly.
Here is some of the learning we shared.

Election Day Opening Arrangements
As you are aware Thursday 23rd May is the European Parliamentary election. Our school dinner hall is a voting station but our school and nursery will be open as normal.
Children attending Breakfast Club should enter through the main office and go into the gym hall.
School lunches that day will be green tray only (packed lunch) or children can bring their own packed lunch to school.
Sun Cream
As we are lucky to currently have such beautiful weather can we please offer you a few gentle reminders about sun cream:
- Parents/ carers should apply sun cream before their child arrives at school.
- Parents/ carers should provide their own sun cream for each child clearly labelled with their name and class. Children can then apply this cream during the day if required.
Long may the sunshine continue!
Programming a micro:bit with help from Sky!
As part of National Digital Learning Week, today Shona and Craig from Sky joined Primary 4 and 5 to share their knowledge of programming a micro:bit.
A micro:bit is a tiny programmable computer, designed to make learning and teaching easy and fun! Some of us even managed to programme it to say our names.
A big thank you to Shona and Craig for showing us this new piece of hardware, we were impressed how we used our prior knowledge of programming in order to use the micro:bit.
They also shared with children information about their jobs at Sky and what skills and experience they need.
