Seafield Primary School

We have had a great week in P5/6 getting to know our teachers, developing our class charter and creating a class vision statement. Some us made powerpoints and some of us made posters. We are very happy to have Lucky Ducks in our class this year! Ask us more about it!

Tickled Pink

• We have been enjoying PE this week where we have been playing different Team games so that we can develop our class chemistry and get to know each other better and this helps our collaboration skills in class.
• We enjoyed making  My World of Work profiles and doing some of the tasks.
• We worked well creating our Classroom visions.
• We enjoyed or bird related art work for our Bump It Up wall.
• We planned our Luck Duck class awards.
• We enjoyed making powerpoints and posters  about what our class looks like, feels like and what we hear.
• We had great news today at assembly – We are now a Gold Rights Respecting School !

Green for Growth

• It was hard to remember all of our maths after the holidays when we did our assessment.
• Division was tricky but we will be working on this.
• It was hard getting all of our new passwords set up for Teams, IDL , World of Work and Sumdog – but we are getting there!

Tickled Pink

• We enjoyed learning about 2D shapes in maths this week. This was done through learning and play stations were we explored shapes, drew them, coloured them in, wrote about their properties and played bingo.
• For art we looked at patterns. We saw a painting that used different patterns and colours and that inspired us to create our own.
• In literacy, we have been practising our handwriting and looking at letter formation, layout and size.

Green for Growth

• Our listening skills are improving but we need to keep practising not talking over each other and listening when asked to.

Our lead learners this week are Flynn and Magnus, well done!

The first full week has been a busy one in Primary 6/7.  We discussed our week in school and decided that we would like to share these thoughts about our learning this week:

Tickled Pink (things that we feel went well):

• We have enjoyed being back into a routine after the summer break.
• We have continued to get to know each other more and have been creating detailed back pack designs which tell about ourselves and our interests.
• Our first writing lesson of this session has also been All About Me when we have been learning to write notes and have used these notes to write descriptions about ourselves.  We used the laptops to start our final drafts and have been learning how to edit our work, changing the fonts and correcting mistakes.
• We were delighted to hear during our assembly this morning that all our hard work has paid off and we have achieved our RRSA gold award.
• We followed up on our discussion about the zones of regulation last week by making our own Regulation Toolboxes with strategies we can try to help get back into the green zone.
• We discussed how we feel when faced with challenges and what we can do to overcome these and we created Learning Pit posters to refer to when we feel overwhelmed and ‘in the pit’.
• In Maths we have been looking at areas we are confident in and identifying those that we need to work on.
• During our golf lesson we enjoyed learning how to do different shots and the ‘chip’ shot proved very popular.

Green for Growth (things that we need to do to improve our learning)

• Some people found it tricky to remember their different log in details and passwords and we have spent some time refreshing these.
• We feel we need to be more responsible in PE lessons.

Our school value award winners for this week are Effie for Resilience and Jack for Responsibility.  Well done!

Have a lovely weekend everyone.

Tickled Pink (things that felt went well):

Green for Growth (things that we need to do to improve our learning):

• Some of our class thought we needed to work on our skills for writing independently.

Welcome back to Seafield Primary School for the 2026/27 session!

It has been lovely welcoming back the children to school this week and seeing them enjoying being back at Seafield Primary. We have had a wonderful week and have enjoyed getting to know our new class. We are looking forward to the interesting and exciting learning that will take place throughout the year.

We will share the children’s reflections on their learning every week on this blog page when they consider what they have been working on in school and decide what was “Tickled Pink” (learning that went well and had a positive impact) and what was “Green for Growth” (learning that was a bit more challenging that we need to continue focusing on).

Have a lovely weekend and we will give more information in our Primary 6/7 blog post next week.

We have had a truly lovely week, filled with special moments and a few emotional goodbyes. With heartfelt thanks for all your support, we say a fond farewell to our amazing P7s as they head off to their next adventure.

With lots of well wishes for a happy, safe and fun Summer, looking forward to seeing you all in the new term

Primary 6/7 have had a wonderful week in school with lots of excellent Health Week activities. On Friday morning, we discussed our week in school and decided that we would like to share these thoughts about our learning this week:

Tickled Pink (things that we feel went well):

• We all really enjoyed our visit from Therapets during Health Week and meeting the lovely dogs, Poppy and Aria
• We all enjoyed our bowling session at Seafield Bowling Club because we were learning how to bowl and playing fun games and it was lovely to get some time outdoors

• We all enjoyed our football session during Health Week with coach Steven as we learned various skills and movements and saw some of his incredible skills and nutmegs

• We loved taking part in the Xcite athletics session as the races and other activities were great fun
• We really enjoyed taking part in the cheerleading session with one of our lovely parents and we enjoyed making our own ‘starbursts’
• We were all delighted to have dress down for the full week due to Health Week activities and also getting to wear our clothes showing our support for Scotland at the World Cup on Friday
• P6s and P7s enjoyed their budding sessions this week with the nursery children and P1s

Green for Growth (things that we need to do to improve our learning)

Our school value award winners for this week are Amelia and Faith. Massive congratulations to them!

Well done P6/7 for a fabulous week in school. Have a lovely weekend and see you all next week.

What an absolutely fabulous Health Week we’ve had in school this week!

We’ve had lots of visitors as you can see below and we have been able to provide something for everyone. Every class has also been undertaking the Daily Mile with the goal of collectively walking 500 miles. We don’t know if we reached our target yet until we count all the class charts but we definitely had fun chanting our Seafield version of I’m Gonna Be (500 miles) whilst walking.
