This club is ran by a teacher at Broxburn Academy who coaches all the basketball teams there. If you are interested pop along on the day!
Fairtrade Kahoot!
Primary 7 used Kahoot to assess their knowledge of Fairtrade, following our Pumphie Pals meeting on Friday. Kahoot is an app/ website that allows the children to interact with questions on the board using the iPads. We were very impressed with how accurately they could answer the questions. You can see from their faces how engaged they were!
Families Learning Together 3
Repost: Learning & Teaching at PUSCPS Event
A reminder, that we warmly invite you to come along and join us at our learning and teaching evening.
We often hear from our families, what does learning look like at PUSCPS and what are the school’s priorities.
Come along and find out from staff and children in an informal way what we have been focusing on this year!
We will even provide you with a wee tea or coffee. We look forward to seeing you on Tuesday evening.
Those parent/ carers with an IDL invite will also be able to attend a workshop on this evening.
Repost: Fair Trade Dress Down Day
A reminder that our February dress down day will on Friday 8th March. We would request that if children chose to take part in the dress down day that they make a donation (usually £1) and this donation will go towards Fairtrade, as it is Fairtrade fortnight. The dress down day is free choice, remembering that  dress is appropriate for school, we would request no football colours (following West Lothian policy) and no midriff tops.
We are aware that this is the P1 Assembly Day but they can also take part in the dress down day.
Fun Time Friday
Today we had Fun Time Friday. Fun Time Friday is an opportunity for all our children to select an activity that they are interested in and take part in it with peers across different classes. We had a range of activities to choose from which the children brainstormed at Pumphie Pals last session.
Fun Time Friday: Camera Club: Our Nursery
Pumphie Pals: Fairtrade
As part of Fairtrade Fortnight our Pumphie Pals session today had a Fairtrade theme.
First of all the children sorted statements which represented Fairtrade values and those that didn’t.
Then they had a Fairtrade quiz.
