A place for news, information and sharing learning from PUSCPS
In class, we have been reading Katie Morag and the Tiresome Ted. In the story, Katie Morag throws away her teddy when she is angry. We made a poster to help find the lost teddy. We also wrote a description of Katie Morag. Here is Peyton’s description of Katie Morag:
Katie Morag has red hair. It is long and she has rosey cheeks and a jumper that is blue and white. She wears a kilt and a pair of welly boots. She is kind.

Today we have been learning about nouns. Noun is a word that is a name of a place, person or a thing. Â We had a noun hunt! This is what we found.
This week in Maths, P1/2 have been learning how to sort and display data. We learned how to count tally marks and record them on a table. We also used Carroll Diagrams to display data and worked as a group to create our own headings and categories for sorting objects.
We have also been learning about New Year resolutions. We shared our ideas for our own resolutions then drew and labelled our targets.
The flyer below was sent home today in your child’s bag (P1-P7). Â If anyone wants to audition for a slot in the assembly please ensure that the attached slip is completed and returned.
Happy New Year from Primary 1!
We are looking forward to learning lots in 2017. We have been finding out what New Year was like in different countries around the world and learned about what New Year’s Resolutions are. Some people in our class wanted to make one!
James: I want to get better at swimming.
Isla: I am going to start tidying my room.
Jack: I am going to help my Mum do the dishes.
Happy New Year from P6!
We are raring to go and keen to learn lots in 2017. On our first day back, P6 have been learning about states of matter in science. We made a video to show how particles behave in solids, liquids and gases. You can watch it below.

It was announced that Rhona Ritchie, our outstanding and dedicated lollipop lady, has been awarded a British Empire Medal in the New Year’s Honours list.
What fantastic recognition of Rhona’s dedication to generations of Pupils from Pumpherston & Uphall Station over the last 40+ years. Â Well done Rhona, we’re all very proud of you.

P6 and Mrs Cullum would like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
