Primary 5 are starting a block of tennis lessons with a coach called Eoin Swan. The children are really looking forward to tackling a new sport.They will require an outdoor P.E. kit consisting of joggers or leggings, a t-shirt, a sweatshirt and a pair of outdoor trainers. Primary 5b will be doing tennis on a Thursday and Primary 5a on a Friday.

P7 had a wonderful holiday and have had a busy first week back! We have not stopped talking about all of the wonderful adventures we have been on and have a fresh mind for our last term at Williamston Primary School!
This can be a sad term for the pupils in P7 as they look back at all of the exciting years they have had here, and look to the future and the exciting times that lie ahead.

We have been working very hard on our Young Writer entries this week, we are making sure we add lots of description and detail. We have also had Miss Hao back with us and we have been reading, writing and pronouncing Chinese numbers. Also we have started our yearbook entries which is a bit nerve racking and exciting to realise that high school is upon us! Primary 7 are really looking forward to the term ahead!

Finally, Spring has sprung!  To celebrate the sunny weather P2a went outside for PE.  We had so much fun and used a lot of energy playing Hot Potato.  Being outside gave us more space to practise our throwing and catching skills.  We even managed to play it with 3 potatoes (balls) we tried to keep our eye on the ball and call the person’s name before throwing

Primary 5 have reached the end of their Superheroes topic and I’m sure you’ll agree they make amazing Superheroes. The have had to go through rigorous training to become the Superhero you see today and along the way they have helped Not-so-super-Stan become more like a Superhero too. The children have thoroughly enjoyed working with Miss Calder on their topic while learning how to stay fit and healthy. Keep up the good work and happy rescuing!!

Bonjour! Primary 5 had a fantastic French Day on Tuesday 31st March 2015. We had so many activities we had to finish them on Thursday! On Tuesday morning we chopped all the vegetables for Ratatouille and left them to cook in the slow cookers for us to taste at the end of the day. The reveiews were very mixed! We also created collages of  French landmarks using coloured paper and lego. Can you guess what they are? French games were also played. Au revoir!

Primary 2 and primary 2/1 would like to thank all our visitors who attended our Daffodil Tea.  Thanks to all of your kind generosity we have raised over £300 for MacMillan Cancer Trust.

We had a great afternoon and are so happy to finally have our daffodils at home to watch them bloom over the Easter holidays.

Thanks again to all of our visitors and our kind helpers who made this a wonderful afternoon.

The children have really enjoyed our work on healthy eating this week. Yesterday, we made our very own smoothies. We had created recipes for them earlier in the week, given them names and decided what ingredients we were going to use. Anyone for a ‘Fruity Fantastical Fruity’?

Primary 4 have been enjoying learning Kurling this term. This is a version of Curling played without ice. Each stone rolls on ball bearings. It has given the children the opportunity to learn new skills and develop good tactical awareness. Great fun was had by all.

We have been learning Scottish ceilidh dancing in Primary 4 this term as part of our Bonnie Scotland topic. The 3 dances we have learned are: the Gay Gordons, the Dashing White Sergeant and the St Bernard’s Waltz. We even worked with a partner to create and perform some dances of our own using Scottish dance steps. Some of the skills we have developed include: communication, team work, creativity, presentation and evaluation. We look forward to showing off our dancing next term, in our P4 show and during the visit from the Indian teachers.
