Stellar Writing Competition

All the children in P1-P7 created a piece of writing for the West Lothian Council Stellar Writing Competition (previously known as Young Writer of the Year).

Our Literacy Leaders had the difficult task of selecting the best piece of writing for each class, and then an overall winner for the school.

On Thursday 6th May at 2:30pm, we will have a special Star Writer Assembly to celebrate and announce those children who have been selected (the children don’t know).  Parents/ carers of these children have been informed but everyone is invited to the assembly. We look forward to seeing you!

Parent/ Carer Questionnaire

Thank you to everyone who has already responded.
We continually gather the views from our parent/ carers and other partners in a range of ways. We have developed this questionnaire to enable us to seek feedback on specific areas of the life, ethos and culture of our school. We will use the feedback from this questionnaire, the West Lothian Council Ethos Survey and other feedback we have, to celebrate our positives and continue on our improvement journey.
Thank you for taking time to complete this questionnaire.

Digital Week in P5

We have been very busy developing our digital skills in P5.  We have been redrafting our imaginative writing using Microsoft Word. In topic we use Google to research Munros, Corbetts and lochs in Scotland. and then, in groups,  we created powerpoints to share the information.  We used Microsoft Excel to develop our skills in data handling to create 2D charts to compare the heights of Munros and Corbetts.

We were very lucky to get a coding workshop this week and also we had a visitor from a Develop Ops Engineer from Cloudreach.
