Primary 5 are smashing it!

Welcome back Primary 5 and what a first two weeks we are having! We are showing super listening skills and are embodying the school values. We are creating our class charter and have also been discussing why learning and taking pride in our work is so important.

For our class story this term we will focus on the works of Roald Dahl – we have already read The Magic Finger and are now reading Fantastic Mr Fox. In  our smaller reading groups we are learning to summarise, predict, clarify and question.

In numeracy we are focussing on the four operations with a focus on multiplication. This week we have learned how to make arrays and use multiplication grids.

We are also having lots of fun – we start the day with fun challenges, and are enjoying creative play. We have set up a Scotmid Shop in our creative corner and are setting up a football theme in our doll’s house. We are also looking forward to Football Mondays.

Primary 5 I’m so excited about the year ahead – I know you are going to smash it so go Team Primary 5!

An action packed week in Rannoch…We have focused on numbers to 10 in Numeracy and are working hard on practising our number formation. We have also learned more in our Literacy activities in terms of ordering the alphabet and recognising initial sounds. A great week of progress!

We have also enjoyed playing together and listening to songs and stories to help our learning.

We have also spent time outside on the Trim Trail and have enjoyed our time in the P.E. hall.

Back to School – P2

Welcome back to our wonderful P2s!  What a fabulous first week.  Although, I’m so sorry to say that we were having so much fun, we forgot to take any photographs.  We will endeavour to do better next week.  I do have a couple of PE shots thanks to Mrs McMaster!

We have spent the week getting to know each other and establishing the new rhythms and routines within the classroom.

We have contributed to our class charter where we learned about our rights ands the responsibilities we have within our school.

We discussed our St Mary’s school values (respect and good manners, friendship, perseverance, trust and honesty, safety) and what they will look like in our classroom.

We listened to the Colour Monster, played the colour monster game and created our own colour monster to share how we were feeling.  We know that we can use the monsters to check in and share our feelings with the grow ups in school every morning.

We celebrated our first mass in P2 and the level of respect shown was outstanding.  It was a special mass to mark the Assumption of Our Blessed Lady.

We painted symmetrical butterflies to decorate our classroom door ready for any visitors.

Overall, a wonderful, busy, fun-filled start to an exciting year.

Back to school for Primary 7

What a fantastic first week back in Primary 7 with lots of new learning. We have discussed our school values and what is expected of us as Primary 7 roles models. We have decided respected will be at the forefront of our learning over the coming weeks and are doing hard to show respect to all our class mates, teachers and everyone in the school. We have created our class charter, put our teamwork and sportsmanship skills into action, create our own board games and even managed to finish the week off with a Just Dance to unwind.
Keep up the good work Primary 7, your teacher is proud of you all.

P2 Farewell!

Over the past couple of weeks, we’ve said goodbye to our wonderful Mrs Topping with a teddy bears picnic and some party games, we’ve visited the safari park, we’ve written the new eco code for St Mary’s and gained our Eco Schools green flag.


2023/2024 has been an absolute blast in P2 and we have so many wonderful memories to look back on. Have a fantastic summer and we will see you all back here in August.

Here we are clearing our growing box and then planting our crops of peas, basil and sunflowers.    We hope they grow well .

These are our fantastic  minature Fairyland models.  We chose different fairyland themes – Jack and the Beanstalk, The Three Little Pigs and Golsilocks and the Three Bears.   Our P7 buddies helped us to design and make these.

End of term Primary 1 & Primary 7

Today we had a end of term garden party with our buddies 🥰

We enjoyed cooking hotdogs and s’mores over the fire pit. Over the past year we have all enjoyed spending time together, we have had lots of learning and lots of fun together.

Today was our final fun time together and we had a ball. The sun ☀️ was shining, we had music 🎶 and dancing 💃 🕺 as well as cooking our food.
Primary 1 would like to thank Primary 7 for being fabulous buddies throughout our first year at school and we wish them lots of success at high school, we will miss you all!

A super sunny week has been enjoyed…With the good weather returning we have enjoyed time outside and had a fabulous time at the safari park. We saw lions, deer, lemurs, sea lions and many other animals.  We also enjoyed our time climbing and sliding on The Fort and played in the pirate’s sand pit too. We returned to school tired but happy after a lovely, lovely, day!

In addition to our literacy and numeracy learning, we have also enjoyed art this week and have learned how to draw a cartoon dinosaur!

We are looking forward to next week!
