Some lovely news to share with you all after our first week back!

As a school, we submitted a nomination to the Scottish Education Awards for the ‘Parents as Partners in Learning’ category. The work carried out by Sarah-Jane Haston across the school is making such an impact, so we felt that this should be recognised on a much larger scale. Many thanks to Tom Ullathorne and Mr Eagleson who helped with the application process.

Judges are coming to the school tomorrow to talk to staff and pupils about the wonderful work undertaken here. Very few schools made the shortlist and we are so proud that Pumpherston and Uphall Station Community Primary School has been recognised. The winner won’t be announced until nearer the summer, so let’s keep our fingers crossed until then!

I will be sure to keep you all updated!

We are so happy to be back for our final term in P2/3.  This week we have been beginning to learn the 10x table (Daniel) in maths as well as revising our number bonds and the 2x and 5x tables (Ava B).

We have been learning about what babies need (Ellie G) as well as looking at baby animals that are like their parents and others that are not like their parents like caterpiller/butterfly, ladybird,  flat fish and frog (Ava F, Abbie, Maja)

We wrote an imaginative story about a giant using the skills we have been learning (Mia).

We are looking forward to the weekend – hope you are too.

As part of our Geography topic this term we compared the land use of our local area and compared it to Malta.  The children had to create a 3D structure of a luxury beach hotel just like the ones they had seen using Google maps when we were investigating the land use of Malta.

This week, Primary 4 have been learning a French Easter story. Lauren and Cerys show you the actions below – have a try yourself!

Have a wonderful Easter when it comes.

The children in the Nursery have been curious about volcanoes this week. They worked together to build volcanoes in the sand on Wednesday and yesterday we had an erupting volcano.  We saw bubbles in the water tray that were just like lava!
