First week in P2 complete

What a wonderful first week back at school! 💛 We have loved welcoming our Primary 2 children back and getting to know one another  and Miss Fox again in our new classroom.

This week has been all about settling in, building relationships and making our classroom a happy, safe and welcoming place to learn. We have been talking about our school values, expectations and routines, learning how we can be kind, respectful and responsible members of our class community.

There has been lots of chatting, exploring, creating and, of course, lots of play! Through play and our activities, we have been discovering more about each other, sharing our interests and learning what makes our new class special.

It has been a busy but lovely start to our Primary 2 journey, and we are so excited for all the learning, fun and adventures still to come!

Well done, Primary 2 — what a fantastic first week!

 

Back to School in Ness

Welcome back to all our pupils in Ness Class this year. We have had an amazing first week, where we nurtured existing friendships and made new connections. Lot’s of opportunity to laugh and play together, both in Ness and in our mainstream. As always, Ness were keen to get back to our learning routines and we are already revising our reading, writing and numeracy skills.

What a super year we have ahead!

 

Welcome to St Mary’s Primary 1 2026

Primary 1 have settled into St Mary’s well, and have been learning and adjusting to the routines of the school. What a fantastic group they are!

We have spent lots of time with our Primary 7 buddies, going for break and lunch together as well as getting to explore their big classroom. We are looking forward to spending lots of time together.

We also attended our first whole school assembly for the first time, we all were very respectful.

Miss Stenhouse is very proud of all of the boys and girls !
Have a lovely weekend 😀

 

Introducing our P7!

We would like to introduce our new St Mary’s p7!

Our new P7s have hit the ground running this week. They arrived on Wednesday looking smart and ready to represent our school. Well done!
They are prepared to be excellent role models in the school, taking on extra jobs like house captains and prefects and they have already shown that they are responsible, kind and caring in their buddying duties with the P1s. We are all very proud of you and can’t wait for the fantastic year we have ahead of us.

Last day in P5 with Miss Fox

We had a lovely last day in P5 with Miss Fox! We enjoyed drawing self-portraits and filling our sunglasses with our hopes and wishes for the summer. We also read the letters we wrote to our future selves when we first met Miss Fox back in P4 and shared them with our friends – there were lots of laughs as we looked back on our memories together. In the afternoon, we enjoyed some time outdoors before heading home. It was a wonderful way to spend our final day together in class this session.

 

 

 

P3 🐴🌳

Today, P3 enjoyed a fantastic trip to The Kelpies. Before our visit, we watched the story of the Kelpies and learned about the history and meaning behind these impressive sculptures.🐴

We had a great time exploring the area and seeing the Kelpies up close. Although the weather was a little rainy at times, we found shelter under some trees and enjoyed our lunch together.🌧️🍴

On our way back to school, we stopped at Callendar Park where we had fun exploring and spending time with friends. It was the perfect way to end our day!

 We have made so many memories on our school trips this year!

P7/6 trip to Kelpies and Callendar


This week P7/6 enjoyed the whole school trip to the Kelpies and Callendar Park as our end of term trip. We have been learning  about the Kelpies in class and how you should be careful around the edge of a loch and not to approach any type of horse… or worse, any mysterious person whose hair might be damp and tangled…

The rain held off so we enjoyed the play park after eating our snacks under these magnificent monoliths. Well done P7/6!
