Primary 7B have been learning about inventors during the Victorian Period. This week we learned about Alexander Graham Bell and the invention of the telephone. We then created our own paper cup telephones. We were so impressed with how well they worked!
This week P1 visited WL College to take part in some Active Schools activities.
The children really enjoyed practising their ball skills and playing fun games. Some of their favourites were Duck, Duck, Goose, Domes and Dishes and Sleeping Pirates.
This morning our P7 Football team took part in their first competitive matches at the Inveralmond Cluster Football Festival.
Team Toronto have been training hard and their coach Miss Telford was delighted with their performance at their first event. The teamwork, determination, skill and stamina were exemplary! The team were proud of their efforts today too, especially when the managed some great results in some difficult games.
The outlook for Team Toronto is positive and they can’t wait until their next game!
P7 girls had their first rugby session this morning with Sam from Livingston Rugby Club, learning skills, developing fitness and having lots of fun!

P6/7 and P7 had a visit from Santa this week. Pupils worked together in groups to design and create a new mode of transport for Santa. Each group then had to pitch their design to Santa, explaining how their mode of transport was environmentally friendly , cost effective, how it moved, etc.
Santa was very impressed with our designs! Well done to Santa’s winning team!
We are continuing to develop our playground areas to make them fun places to be during break times. Our PSW staff are leading games and activities with our children and we are continuing to see the positive impact it is making. The pupils are engaged, helping each other, using their imaginations and becoming more independent in leading these activities themselves.
Our playgrounds are such positive places to be!
This year to raise money for Children in Need, we held a “Come as you Please” day and held a P1-7 Danceathon. Pupils and staff came to school wearing whatever they chose – some chose to wear their own clothes, some chose to wear their Pudsey t-shirts and accessories.
We threw some pretty awesome shapes at our Danceathon – the Macarena was definitely a favourite!
We raised a fantastic £149.33 for Children in Need!
As part of our Children in Need focus last week, P4/5 worked in teams to Escape the classroom through solving Children in Need Literacy clues to identify the code to unlock the room.
Well done to the winning team who managed to get out first!
