We started our week with our Christmas party, everyone enjoyed the music, games and some party treats!🍦🍫
The excitement continued with a very special visit from Santa, which made everyone’s day extra special❤️🎅
Yesterday was our Polar Express Day, children showed there golden ticket before enjoying a hot chocolate and some treats! There was plenty of Christmas cheer and smiling faces all round✨🍫❤️P7 also helped us bake some chocolate rice crispy cakes!
On the 25th of November a group of children represented our school at the Catholic Education Week Mass in Edinburgh. They had a lovely day travelling by train and attending a special Mass at the Cathedral. We went to the shop afterwards and purchases rosary beads and prayer cards for each class. All children were a credit to our school and we were so proud of how they showed our school values. Some members of the public even commented on how kind and well-mannered they were! Well done everyone!
Well….!
Welcome to our final post of 2025!
We have had the most amazing first term in our school.
We have made friends.
We have played, and learned inside in our classroom, the gym hall, the sensory room, and outside in the mud, the sand, the water, the sun and the rain.
We have experienced sounds, letters, numbers, shapes, music and sensory experience.
We have had a ball!
We wish you all the most restful holiday period.
We look forward to your continuing following our #TayTravels, as we embark on #TayTermTwo in 2026. An adventure awaits!
Some pictures from our recent drumming performance with Resilient Rhythms. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with them. Thank you to those of you that were able to attend.
It has been a busy but quick term. P5 have worked so hard and are looking forward to a well deserved rest. Merry Christmas to you all and happy new year when it comes.
What a busy week in Primary 1!
We all had lots of fun at our first school Christmas 🎄 party.
A special visitor came to our party and gave us all a gift 🎁
On Tuesday we made some gingerbread Christmas 🎄 cookies 🍪. We had to use lots skills, rolling, mixing, cutting and many more. It was lots of fun, and tasty 😋
The Primary 5,6 and 7 put on a Christmas 🎄 Concert for us, we were a very respectful audience and enjoyed listening to them sing.
In number work this week we used our number skills to colour in Christmas 🎄 pictures. We had to use our adding and subtracting strategies to work out the correct colours to use.
We also got to enjoy some time in the sensory room this week which was lots of fun, we all decided we would like to go back again after the holidays.
During literacy we wrote letters to Santa 🎅🏻 we thought about how old we were and what we had already asked Santa for.
We wish you all a Merry Christmas 🎄 and look forward to lots of learning in the new year 🎆
We really got into the Christmas mood after watching the pantomime. We went to see Sleeping Beauty at the theatre in Bathgate. It was a great day. We enjoyed booing for the nasty queen and cheering for the huntsman and Snow White. The dwarves were very funny.
P4/3 had great fun this week at the Christmas Party. We played pass the parcel and the corners game. We loved dancing to our favourite K-Pop songs, we really have some fantastic dancers. We also loved dancing to some of the old classics like the cha cha slide and the Macarena. We had some yummy party food and then topped off the day with a Gillespies ice-cream. We were extremely lucky to have a very special visitor, Santa! He managed to take time out of his busy schedule to come and check we have been good this year and he gave us all a sweetie. Thank you Santa!
On Tuesday, we headed out to see the Snow White pantomime🍎.Everyone had a fantastic time joining in and enjoyed some snacks along the way!
On Wednesday we enjoyed our Christmas lunch and Christmas jumper day!🎅 In the afternoon we done some Christmas pointillism art, we created our pictures using dots instead of lines to build up shapes and patterns.
On Thursday we made gingerbread men with Mrs Wotherspoon and some help from P7.😃
On Friday we shone on stage in our nativity show Lights Camel Action ⭐️🐪🎬 Everyone was amazing! We have so much fun performing infront of all of our parents!
Well done P3 for an amazing week and a wonderful performance… only 13 more sleeps to go🎅❤️
Primary one had their first class trip this week, we set off to watch the Snow White Pantomime. This was super exciting, we had to travel together on the bus 🚌 and we took our snacks with us. The show was great, a little scary at times, but we all enjoyed joining in.
On Wednesday we had Christmas 🎄 dinner and Christmas jumper day in school.
On Friday we performed our Christmas Nativity show, we are all so proud of ourselves and we hope all the grown ups enjoyed it as much as we did.
Our elf has been up to lots of fun and some mischief this week, as well as spying on us for Santa! We are really enjoying having Cookie Crumble as part of our class.
Have a great weekend 😀
