West Lothian Dance Showcase

On Wednesday 12th March, our Craigshill dancers took part in the West Lothian Dance Showcase. We performed a ‘Journey through Dance’ covering a range of dance styles. Mrs Lochhead and Mrs Fallens are so proud of all of our dancers. What superstars and a great experience to be part of!

Performance details for parents/carers of the dancers will follow.

Craigshill LOVES to Read!

At Craigshill Primary Schools, we know how important reading is and had lots of fun celebrating World Book Day! We dressed up as our favourite book characters, made book character puppets, wrote and illustrated our own stories and participated in some fun book related quizzes. We can’t wait to get a book with our World Book Day token.

World Book Day – ELC

On Thursday 6th March, Letham ELC celebrated World Book Day with a Bookbug session. We had Alistair, a nursery grandparent in to read us a story and we spoke about our favourite books as the children dressed up as different characters!

We even had another special visitor in to see all of the AM & PM children, Bookbug!!

P7 Romans Assembly

On Thursday 27th February the school and parents joined P7 for their Romans themed class assembly.  P7 have chosen to learn about life in Rome during the reign of Emperor Nero this term, and decided to showcase their learning by making videos around the theme of popular TV shows.  Pupils did an excellent job at being creative throughout the whole planning, performing and editing process and it was amazing to see their confidence grow as they put their assembly together.  We hope you enjoy watching this extract and invite you to think about whether you think Emperor Nero was a faithful or a traitor?

P5 and P5/6 Trip to Dynamic Earth

On Thursday, Primary 5 and Primary 5/6 travelled to Edinburgh to go to Dynamic Earth. We started our day at a workshop learning all about natural disasters and different rocks! We then time travelled back to the Big Bang and learnt all about the planets and space. Next we went to the arctic… we were a bit chilly when we saw the iceberg! Our favourite part was when we took a flight to the Rainforest. We had to wear safety glasses that made everything feel so real!
