This week on Monday, we had an assembly with Mrs Purdie about how our school values are getting a bit old now and that we will be introducing new ones. We also are re-doing the infant and middle area toilets, and painting the upper area ones.
Then on Tuesday we had our P.E with Miss McCormack and we were doing our solo gymnastics routines that we had written down in our jotters from last week. We peer assessed each other, focusing on skill, technique and performance. We also (in partners) did a fact file on someone related to Mary Queen of scots. We had to write where they were from, who their parents were and how they are related to Mary.
Then on Wednesday, we had our second slot of P.E with Mr McCurdy, where we did gymnastics using the equipment. Then after we had our R.E with Mrs Howley, where we learned the story of St Paul (Saul). After lunch we went over to Dedridge primary to watch a show that took place there. The show was about friendship – one man played all the parts!
On Thursday, we did Art inspired by Chuck Close, which when we added all our pictures together it made a picture of Robert Burns. Mrs McDonald came in and taught most of us for Maths. The people who work with Miss McCormack had £800 and could go on a holiday and choose 2 activities.
Then today on Friday, We had our active themed assembly by the house captains, and we were just finishing off some unfinished tasks.
Thanks for reading.

What a busy week! Lovely to hear all about the new school values! I know how exciting it will be to see them all being put into practice.! Taylor is really enjoying Maths with Mrs McDonald and its great to hear what you all worked on with her each week. We have also loved hearing and seeing all the hard work that’s been put into the Pope Francis award booklets, so nice hearing what each stage means to you guys as individuals. Looking forward to hearing how next week went as P7 seems to be a busy time for you all. 🙏😊
