P7 Visit to Almond Valley
P7 had a great time on their trip to Almond Valley Heritage Centre. We took part in their ‘Wild Maths’ learning activities! We tasted and grew our own micro-greens, learned about different animals and had lots of fun with our friends!
P3 Go Wild in the Woods
This morning Primary 3 took part in a very wet outdoor learning session with Kids Gone Wild. We had fun exploring the woods, climbing trees and we bravely had a go at slacklining. We had the best time being wet, messy and outdoors!
NYCOS
Primary 4/5 have been enjoying weekly lessons with NYCOS. We have been learning music through singing games and activities. We had so much fun in our final session using the parachute and are sad that our sessions have come to an end.
P6 Fun and Fitness with WL College Students
Today, Primary 6 had the opportunity to work with a group of West Lothian College HND students in fun fitness tests, relay races and games. The children had a brilliant time and are really looking forward to their next session.

Showcasing our Musical Skills
Primary 4 and Primary 4/5 have been enjoying music sessions with Eamonn from Infectious Grooves. After weeks of learning new skills in drumming and rhythm, each class confidently shared their learning in a showcase performance for the rest of the school.
Community Art
Ursula Cheng came into school this week as part of a community art project. Ursula is collating ideas from local schools and community groups as she is planning to use these ideas to paint a local tunnel.
The children at Toronto helped Ursula to make paints from natural materials such as fruit and vegetables and used these to paint their own pictures.
Challenge Poverty Week – P6/7
For Challenge Poverty Week, P6/7 explored the ‘Cost of the School Day’. We now have an understanding of how the school day costs money for families. We discussed the things Toronto Primary School does to support families in reducing the cost of the school day.
Challenge Poverty Week 2024
During Challenge Poverty Week 2024, Primary 3 explored some big questions:
-
What does West Lothian do to help people in poverty?
-
What does Toronto PS do to help poverty?
-
What could Toronto PS do to help those in need?
Learners discussed the West Lothian food bank, our Toronto Boutique, free school meals and free after school clubs.
Primary 3 also had a visit from Mrs McDougall, our Family link Worker, who came and explained what she does in her job does to help.
For our school to provide further support to our families and community we identified a wide range of ideas, including creating a knitting or sewing club to make scarves and hats to keep families warm, having fruit bowls in classes, and much more!
We then made posters to express our thoughts and ideas.
