We will be supporting UNICEF’s Day for Change next Friday by having an Inside Out Day.  Children can come to school on Friday 8th February wearing their clothes inside out! In return children are asked to bring a donation of 50p to help supprt UNICEF’s vital work.
Primary 4
This week we have been learning about the uses of water in Science. We made a diagram to show how we had used water in a day. Next week we will be learning about how important water is to us and how we can prevent water wastage.
We wrote imaginative stories in writing about travelling in a Time Machine. Some people went on an adventure to the past and some people went into the future!
Next week Ewan McVicar will be visiting Primary 4.  He is going to talk to us about food in other countries.  We will also be taking part in a joint bird migration art activity with another school in Africa.

Primary 4
 This week we have been learning about Time. We made a list of all the ways we use time everyday and some children went on a Time Devices Treasure Hunt.  We have also started to learn about our new topic Food Glorious Food. We made a shopping list of all our favourite foods which made us feel a bit hungry!
Remember to wear your watches and look at the clock to help you use what you have learned in class this week.

We have been learning about the rules for Kosher food, the food that is allowed for Jewish people, in our RME lessons.
 Can anyone find a ‘Kosher’ badge on a food packet, jar or can? Look in your cupboards – or have a good look around when you’re at the supermarket helping with the shopping! If you find one, tell us where!
For a reminder of the Kosher rules, try this website: http://www.chabad.org/kids/article_cdo/aid/926235/jewish/What-is-Kosher.htm
Panto Fun
Here are a few photos of this year’s panto, Peter Pan.  A great time was had by all, including some staff who were included in the show – not always willingly.
Sleigh bells ring…
We want to show off some of the super sleighs our children have designed and built for Santa this December! He will have a difficult job choosing between gold, glitter, rocket speed, reindeer power, and even time travel machines.
Primary 4 – 1960’s Toys
Primary 4  have been researching some of the popular toys from the 1960’s. We found information, pictures and even old TV adverts on the internet to help us learn about the different toys.  We are going to organise all of the information we have found into a Powerpoint and present it to the Primary 3 children who are currently learning about toys.
Winter Ready
Notification of any disruption to school provision, including before school starts or while the school day is running, will be transmitted to parents through the Groupcall text messaging system. It is essential that we have up to date contact details for all children – please ensure that you contact the school office if your child’s information needs to be updated. WLC will also provide information via announcements on local radio stations such as Forth One and Real Radio. Social media websites may also be used by WLC. Continue reading “Winter Ready”
The First Minister, Alex Salmond Opens our new school!
We have moved!
Finally after many years of anticipation we are in our new school building. It is very bright and seems very, very big compared to our previous home. I have to say though, that the wait was well worth it. The children are super excited to have so much space as each classroom has a breakout area where they can work quietly in small groups and a very big playground that is much easier to monitor. The children love the decking and being able to bring each class into their own cloakroom will prevent so many problems of missing coats and crowded corridors.
We took a photo of everyone on the last day in the old school and another one on Wednesday 22nd March outside the new school. This week sees our official opening and by the time the parent/teacher meetings come around in March it will look and feel like a ‘real’ school.
