Pumpherston and Uphall Station CPS Blog

A warm welcome back to session 2016/2017.  School begins for all pupils on Tuesday 23rd August and we look forward to seeing you all then.

We are interested in how many of our families access the information on this blog.  We use it for information throughout the session and all classes post learning blogs.  We would love to see more people posting comments on the blogs and engaging with the learning shown here.

If you read and use this blog, please let us know by commenting on this post – it will help us to know who is seeing our posts.

Many thanks.

School has now closed for the summer. Thank you for all your support this session. We will see all the pupils back on Tuesday 23 August.

Have a good summer.

Steven Eagleson.

All medication currently held in school must be collected from the office – by an adult – by tomorrow afternoon. Any remaining medication will be disposed of according to NHS guidelines.

Today the P5, P6 and P7 pupils had the choice to spend lunchtime on the field.  They had great fun with all the extra space.  They played football without getting in the way of others.  They climbed the bank and played among the trees (and nettles!) and they climbed trees – safely.   Mr Eagleson worked with the groups to chat about the dangers and how to keep themselves safe and we will continue these conversations as the good weather continues.

You can support us at home by discussing with your children how to keep safe by judging and managing risk.  We reinforce that they should be in sight of an adult, never try to flip or “acrobat” jump down a hill. Only climb into trees as high as your shoulder is off the ground.  We have established a border with the tree line at the top of the bank.
