Here we are enjoying our P4-7 Party with games , dancing and food. We had a fantastic time and danced ourselves dizzy !
Wishing everyone a Happy Christmas and a good New Year from Mrs Moffat and P6M.
Party time in P4
P4 had a great time at the Christmas party today. We all looked very smart and festive. We played musical bumps, pass the parcel, corners game and we had a best dancer competition. We all loved the party food and especially our treat of ice cream and strawberry sauce. We were so excited when we returned to our class to find a sack of gifts from Santa. We all got to choose our own book and take home to read and enjoy. Thank you Santa!
What have P6M been up to ?
Here is a catch up of some of the things we’ve been busy with. More Christmas capers to follow.

It certainly put some colour in our cheeks.

We also had a chance to take care of Muffin and Biscuit , the gerbils who live over at the Nursery. We did an amazing job keeping them fed , watered, cleaned and cuddled !
Here we are enjoying activities during Book Week Scotland. We took part in the River of Reading with P2 and read a story with them. We also painted potatoes as book characters, and we enjoyed the Book Swap which gave us a chance to extend our own personal book collection.

Primary 1 Nativity
This week was a very busy week.
We had a lovely Christmas 🎄 dinner together on Wednesday. On Thursday we enjoyed Peter Pan the Panto but the highlight of the week was our Nativity show.
We were all super proud of each other for being on stage in front of an audience. Some of us were super nervous but we persevered and supported each other and all tried our best.
Photos of the nativity have been uploaded to seesaw, please have a look.
Thank you all for coming to watch us.
Have a lovely weekend.
Catholic Education Week 2024

We celebrated Catholic Education Week / Fortnight in November.
This year’s theme is “Pilgrims of Hope“. Pope Francis has confirmed that 2025 will be a year of Jubilee, which happens every 25 years.
Pilgrims of Hope centres around the idea of hope for a world suffering the impacts of war, ongoing effects of Covid and climate crisis.
“We must fan the flame of hope that has been given us, and help everyone to gain new strength and certainty by looking to the future with an open spirit, a trusting heart and far-sighted vision. The forthcoming Jubilee can contribute greatly to restoring a climate of hope and trust as a prelude to the renewal and rebirth that we so urgently desire; that is why I have chosen as the motto of the Jubilee, Pilgrims of Hope. ” The Holy Father, Pope Francis.
Jubilee Pledge 2025:
We are pilgrims of hope.
We walk in solidarity with our sisters and brothers
worldwide, sharing challenges and celebrating joys.
We promise to be agents of change, working together for
justice, love and peace, locally and globally.
We want to build a fairer world, where every person,
and the earth, can flourish.

Rannoch News
We have had a lovely festive week in Rannoch class…We have enjoyed making festive baubles with our photo on them and we are looking forward to taking them home!
We have also enjoyed some time outside in the crisp air and time in the Sensory Room.
We have also continued with our studies of initial sounds and revised our understanding of 3-D shapes.
We have also enjoyed listening to Christmas music and songs as the festive season gets underway.
Primary 6R
Primary 6 have been very busy this week
We presented our Solo Talks this week on various topics that we find interesting, we were also given the opportunity to peer assess. We noted the things that worked well and provided feedback on things they could do even better for future talks.
On Tuesday we got to watch a movie with the whole school. We really enjoyed it.
We started our whole school rehearsals for our carol service, we are feeling quite confident that we know our reading and songs. “We Three Kings” is the favourite.
We led Advent Mass today (Friday) and welcomed parishioners to our school. Many students had a part to play in the mass – welcoming our parishioners, bidding prayers and offertory procession.
After our mass we participated in a Christmas themed Daily Mile with the whole school, 14 laps of our playground to be exact!
Primary 1 First week of Advent
We have a great first week of advent.
We had a special visitor arrive on Monday, a class elf called Sparkles. Sparkles has added a extra bit of fun to our week. He delivered us a real Christmas 🎄 tree which we are going to look after and plant in the garden in spring time. We decorated the tree together. He has also delivered us lots of Christmas 🎅🏻 books to read before Christmas holidays as well as some chocolate puddings.
We have been learning all about the nativity story and what we do in the build up to Christmas. In class we made advent wreaths and spoke about the significance of the candles.
On Friday we joined the whole school to celebrate an advent mass. We were all very respectful and tried our very best at singing.
The whole school joined in on the Daily mile today, this was the first time we have done it but we are looking forward to doing it regularly 🏃
Have a lovely weekend.
