A Fun Filled Day at Low Port

Today we have been very busy outdoors!

Once kitted out in our waterproofs and wellies we all took part in canoeing and a forest adventure. We loved crawling through tunnels, walking up the stream and keeping our canoe afloat!

After dinner we got glammed up for our disco and were cutting some shapes on the dance floor.

We are all really tired today after lots of activities and looking forward to bed!

An early morning visit to Linlithgow Palace is planned for tomorrow, before heading home after lunch.

P5 are at Low Port!

We arrived early this morning and were out and about straight away. We went for a looong walk round the Loch – the park at the end and roly polys down the huge hill was worth the walk! After lunch at the centre it was time to walk to Linlithgow Canal Centre, we loved our trip on the boat, and were very impressed with the boat’s 3 point turns!

We went back to the centre and were very excited to get to our rooms!, then we remembered we had to make our beds!! That was tough!

After a yummy dinner we went down to the peel for a game of rounders.  Once back we got snuggled into our jammies, put a film on and had some supper before bed.

We have been so busy today and there are lots of tired P5’s tonight. We have another busy day tomorrow!

Sports Day 2019

On Friday 31st May, we held our annual Sports Day. Even though the weather wasn’t too kind, we still had lots of fun, laughs, teamwork and competition, as we held our sports day indoors.

In our big hall we took part in some potted sports, where we were shooting the football into the goal, testing out our aim on the target throw, completing the obstacle course and running the hurdles, to name a few. In the lunch hall we took part in some traditional sports day races – flat race, bean bag race, egg and spoon race. We had lots of proud winners showing off their certificates and stickers for placing 1st, 2nd and 3rd in our races.

Along with our water to keep us hydrated during all this physical activity, we enjoyed some tasty fruit during our morning, which was very kindly donated by Aldi and Lidl, and then a tasty ice lolly treat afterwards.

Today our Pupil Leadership Team shared the total scores from the day for each House team. Our winning house was Mohawk, who enjoyed an extra break together this afternoon as their reward. Well done Team Mohawk!

Here are some photos and videos from the day taken by our photographer Peyton.

DYW Skills Fair

Some of our P7’s had an amazing time at the Almondvale Stadium this week investigating careers at West Lothian’s DYW Skills Fair. All pupil enjoyed lots of interactive activities – making bath bombs, slime, ice cream and lemonade, working on their coding skills using the Scratch website, finding out about items of medical equipment, trying out VR headsets, creating and designing our own sweets and sweet shops, as well as many other interesting skills and careers.

What a fab morning!

Last night of fun at camp

Today, our last full day we finally had a good spell of sunshine. We all enjoyed doing our final activities. We absailed, hill walked, went canoeing, (only some of us jumped in) but we all took part! There was also archery and tree climbing. We played loads of different games during our free time with our new friends. We are currently enjoying the disco but looking forward to chapter 3 of Harry Potter tonight and coming to see you all tomorrow! We’ve had the best time! Love Primary 7.
