Primary 1, 2 and 5 had a great trip to Dynamic Earth on Tuesday. We loved walking through all of the different time zones, especially the ones that shook, rumbled, or suddenly turned freezing cold. We took part in a Journey into Space Workshop and learned lots about our Solar System and the life of an Astronaut. A great day was had by all!
Today we sadly say goodbye to two much‑loved members of our Craigshill PS community, Mr and Mrs Gray, as they retire together. Mr Gray has been the steady, reliable presence who kept our school running smoothly—tackling ladders, spiders and floods and bringing pride and quiet care to everything he did. Mrs Gray has been a constant source of warmth, patience and kindness, supporting generations of children, families and staff, whether in classrooms, comforting a worried pupil, or even painting half the school in her own time. They have each given so much of themselves to make our schools a welcoming, nurturing place, and their impact will be felt for years to come. As they step into this new chapter, we wish them both a joyful, well‑earned retirement, however, they will always be part of the Craigshill family.
Mrs Lochhead and Mrs Fallens are so proud of our group of dancers who performed on Wednesday at the West Lothian Dance Showcase in Bathgate! They were absolute stars and the performance can be watched here.
Primary 6 at Letham had a fantastic day out at Deep Sea World, exploring all the underwater wonders and learning about the importance of recycling in order to keep our oceans free from plastic. The highlight of our trip was watching the seals being fed. It was a great trip!
