Today some children used a mirror to study their faces then painted self portraits. These fabulous pictures will be on display for all to see later this week.
There was a lot of singing today! Ducks in the water tray inspired singing Five Little Ducks and the pea pods picked yesterday led us to sing Five Little Peas in a Peapod Pressed. Both of the songs helped us count to five.
The sun was shining today so we spent much of the day playing outside! For snack, the children enjoyed the leek and potato soup that they made yesterday. Delicious. The hospital corner was popular today, with many patients being treated throughout the day.
This year the Pupil Council worked hard to arrange and set up activities for the School pupils to take part in for Children in Need. This years theme was Superheroes and pupils could dress down/ up as a Superhero on Friday 14th November. Donations of baking were sold at a homebaking stall and pupils could decorate a Pudsey biscuit or balloon for a donation. There was Pudsey merchandise available to buy and any spare change could be used on the Cover Pudsey in Copper stall.
Pupils were invited to guess where Pudsey went on Holiday to win a Pudsey Bear. Well done to Andrew Sharp from the Morning nursery who guessed correctly to discover Pudsey had been to visit Paddington’s home in deepest Peru. The guess the weight of the Pudsey cake was won by Brodie and Meah Burns little sister Ciara – the correct weight was 1kg 253g. Christopher Miller in P7 was our star coin slider and managed to get his 20p closest to the jar of Sweets to secure the prize.
Congratulations to all our Prize winners and the winning Design a Superhero was taken by Cyrus Knox P3, closely followed by Donnie Tod P5. Our Pudsey colouring competition winners were Sophie Lee Davis, Amber Khan and Chloe Seagust.
A great morning was had by all and even the teachers got in the spirit and participated in a Soak the teacher event. Mrs Agini, Mrs Browne and Mrs Dare all took a slot on the chair and the pupils paid to throw a soaked sponge at them. Some were pretty accurate.
The nursery hosted a breakfast event on the Friday morning and a Scone and tea event on Thursday 13th which added to the fundraising total.
The Grand total for the fundraising was £263.46
This year the children visited East Links Farm in Dunbar and enjoyed a fun- filled day. The sun shone and so did the children. An enjoyable day was had by all…
On Wednesday 25.06.14 Westfield Primary went to East Link Park and had lots of fun.
There were lots of activities which everybody enjoyed – the go carts, the fortress and seeing the animals. We also enjoyed feeding the animals.
We all went on a steam train and saw all the animals in the field. After the train journey, we all went for lunch.
After lunch we went on the crazy bikes and then we went for Ice lollies and then used the park and the go karts.
We all enjoyed it and it was lots of fun!

Well done to our pre – school AM children who are all ready to join P1/2/3 next session. We wish you all the best in your Primary 1 Adventure!!
Members of the Pupil Council worked very hard to organise our recent successful Sports Day with Mrs Browne. We were very lucky and the weather held out for a fantastic event. Lots of parents came along to support and unknowingly participate in the events.
Pupils competed against their class mates in various races in the morning and then worked collectively in their new school houses to win a house relay.
All points awarded were tallied for each house and scores mounted as the day progressed. In the afternoon there was much fun when children moved around a potted sports circuit and collected loads of points for their houses. The final event saw tug of war pull between infant classes in house teams and then more of the same for the Upper classes.
Pupils as always demonstrated stamina, endurance and fantastic sportsmanship. The final totals were then calculated and the new Westfield Sports Day Shield was awarded to …………. LIDDELL!!!!
Well done to all Liddell House members and all pupils for making the day a real success!!
Special thanks also to all the parents who participated in the parents

As part of our Health and Wellbeing fortnight, our P7 Health Champions organised for the Smoothie bike to visit our school. Shona from Together for Health came along and worked with Reece and Keegan with each class to learn how to make healthy smoothies and blend them using the Smoothie Bike. Everyone enjoyed the process and learned lots of interesting information about which colour of fruits help which part of our body….. and the smoothies tasted great too!!!
