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!

New Years Resolutions

It was lovely to welcome all our children back to Toronto after the Festive break.

P4/5 have started off their new year by reflecting on all that 2024 offered and making resolutions for the year ahead. They have set their own goals for what they would like to achieve in 2025.

 

P4/5’s Roman Feast

Through our recent learning we have been finding out about the Romans.

We looked this week at Roman foods and were shocked at some of the items they would have on their feast menus – can you imagine eating peacock, tongue or dormice!

We created our own Roman Feast menus with a variety of foods we thought we might like to try.

Today we had our very own Roman feast with a variety of foods to try, some we were a bit apprehensive of but we all tried some new foods today and are very proud of ourselves!

Challenge Poverty Week – P7

Primary 7 explored the cost of the school day. In groups, we discussed different school costs and created a diamond nine to show greater and smaller costs.
We then looked at a school calendar with different school events. We discussed the costs that these events would have.

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.
