At Pumphie Pals last week we asked pupils to share what they think makes our school great and what they think we could improve on together. The results have been organised below and they make for terrific reading. Our pupils clearly love their school, and enjoy having a say in how we do things at PUSCPS.
We are nurtured and healthy in Primary 5 and love spending quality time together eating snack. Today we had the choice of toast, beans, carrots and mandarins.
As you know we are being inspected by HMIE next week. It is extremely important for the inspection process that your views as parents are heard. At present we have a very low number of parents available to speak to the team and I’m hoping we can encourage more of you to come forward to speak to the team about your school.
We would like to tell you what we have enjoyed learning last week:
‘I enjoyed using ambitious openers in my writing.’ Emma
‘ I enjoyed converting between 12 hour analogue times and 24 hour digital times in maths.’ James
‘ I enjoyed applying our learning in time differences by making up our own questions for the group.’ Katie
‘ I enjoyed developing my readings skills by predicting what I thought would happen in my new book ‘Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator.’ Erin S
On Friday, Miss McLaughlin and Mrs Ross took their group for some outdoor fun!
We gathered different natural items (leaves, stones, shells) and turned them into a masterpiece by the library! Can you guess who we made…?
This week we had a Halloween themed maths challenge and in science we designed electrical circuits with a Halloween theme. We also had fun at the Halloween disco.
If you are planning on going to a firework display, please remember the following:
If you are given a sparkler…
Have fun and stay safe!
P1 were busy yesterday afternoon creating their own working village using loose parts. There were cafes, shops, police stations and vehicles. We saw lots of roleplay, cooperation and writing.
Primary 4 are very lucky to now have a new interactive board in their classroom. Fingers crossed we will be able to work it!
Emma was very proud to show off her medal and trophies that she achieved during her dancing show. We are very proud of you Emma!
