Today we have been looking into our topic which is Life Cycles. So we took our learning outside and planted some little sunflower seeds, to see their Life Cycle and to see how many days it takes to grow into an adult plant.We split into four groups to see which group waters their plants and is more responsible of keeping their plants healthy. We hope you enjoy the pictures, we enjoyed the planting. It was a lovely day.

Planting at Blackfaulds
The Eco Committee spent the afternoon helping residents at Blackfaulds nursing home to add colour to their garden by filling hanging baskets and pots with lots of lovely flowers. They then got to meet other residents, then were treated to hot chocolate and home made cupcakes to thank them for their efforts! Thanks to Marion at Blackfaulds for making us all feel so very welcome.
Our Vision
Rights Respecting Day for Change – A huge Success
On Wednesday 24th of May we had our Day for Change and it was a huge success!! We raised an even number of £160 which a charity called Nutrition have said that for every pound raised they will double it which means we have raised £320. This means our money will be able to train two nurses to look after malnourished children. Also we can provided four malnourished children with life saving food for five days.
On the day we had an assembly to explain Day for Change and to raise awareness of the malnourished children in Liberia. There was a cake sale at break time and the cakes sold like hot cakes!!!! We wrote Day for Change in chalk on the hall floor and covered it in coins. We paid £1 to dress down or in blue and had a guess how much money in the jar, which Meah won.
Thank you so much for helping us raise this amount and it will make a difference in these young children’s lives.
Pupils excelling in Westfield Primary!
Huge congratulations to Meah in P4 and Callum in P1 who are winners in the West Lothian Young Writer competition! We are very proud of their achievements and of the fact that, from 7000 entries and only 26 winners, two were Westfield pupils!
Healthy eating and p1/2
We have started our new topic on healthy living.
We tasted some healthy foods like strawberries, mango, oatcakes and humus.
We were learning about healthy foods and had to make a healthy packed lunch by choosing from different foods.
We learned about how much of each food we can eat – foods we can eat lots of, foods we eat some of and foods we shouldn’t eat much of.
Last afternoon at Lendrick Muir
Team challenges and rocket launch in the glorious sunshine for our last afternoon.

The Rectangles were finding a fraction of a quantity and showing it using nature.
The Triangles were measuring out in the playground using trundle wheels.
The Circles were making patterns with nature.
