Primary 5 are entering the Tesco Art Competition this year and the theme for Primary 4-7 is horses. Primary 5b have finished their entries and I’m sure you’ll agree that their finished pieces are amazing.
Health Leadership – Lots of Socks Day
Williamston Primary School have raised £172.00 for Down’s Syndrome Scotland by taking part in Lots of Socks Day.
The Health Leadership Group would like to thank everyone who took part in the fundraising day on Monday 21st March. We hope we have helped raise awareness of Down’s Syndrome while encouraging everyone to treat each other with respect and equality.
The money we have raised for Down’s Syndrome Scotland will help provide information, support and groups for children and families affected by Down’s Syndrome.
P4 Easter Gardens
In P4 we have been learning more about the Easter Story and Easter customs, symbols and traditions. We have also been learning French vocabulary related to Easter and traditions in France. We were set a group challenge to design and make an Easter Garden. Take a look at our wonderful creations!
P4 trip to Edinburgh
We had our big trip to Edinburgh recently as part of our Scotland topic and we had a fantastic day! We visited Edinburgh Castle where we met Mary Queen of Scots herself! She taught us how to walk and dance like a Royal Court member. We learned about the food that would have been eaten at banquets and the armour that would have been worn. We made pomanders from oranges and cloves and we all dressed up in fancy clothes. At the Palace of Holyroodhouse we went on an investigation around the rooms of Mary Queen of Scots, making notes on our clipboards as we went along. It was fascinating to see where she would have lived and see some of her belongings. The walk up/down the Royal Mile was very exciting with lots to see! Thank you to all who supported this very special outing.
P7 rock!
Mrs Carral and Miss Brown just want to say a HUGE well done to all pupils in P7! We are so proud of every single of one of you. You have all worked so incredibly hard on learning lines, singing songs, acting with expression, controlling lights, sound and microphones and creating fabulous backdrops… the list is endless! You put on such a wonderful show and we know that your families loved every second of your performances!
Thank you to all parents and carers for all your support and lovely comments.
Enjoy your holidays – rest and relax! Come back refreshed and ready for your final term at Williamston!
P4 Trout Project
In P4 we were sad to wave goodbye to our fishy friends! But happy that they grew so well and were ready to swim off into the Murieston Water. We did this project with Forth Fisheries and took great care of the trout as they changed from alevins to fry. It was fun seeing them swim off to their new home, although some weren’t too keen on leaving! While we were at the river, we also took part in some river-dipping activities, where we looked in some of the river water for some of the living things that the trout might like to eat. We were able to identify these insects and river creatures using magnifying glasses and charts. Thank you to Forth Fisheries and parents who supported this project.
Sport Relief 2016
Thank you to all who supported Sport Relief this year!
Primary 4 really enjoyed planning and organising this event for the school as a mini-enterprise topic. The Assembly Group held a special assembly linked to the value of “Determination”, which included a film written and produced by the Film Group, plus a dance made up by the wonderful Dance Group. All classes dressed in sports clothes and took part in the Try-Athlon, an obstacle course co-ordinated by the Events Group, and also the Competition Group held a “Design a Mascot” competition with lots of great entries. Classes were asked to collect as much small change as possible in the class money boxes made by the Money Box Group, who then had a big job counting all the money. P3a won with £51.54. The Sales Group worked hard to sell 140 wristbands. The Publicity Group kept everyone up to date with events with posters, tannoy announcements and letters.
P4 are delighted to announce that the total raised was £495.80! Thank you to the whole school community!
P5a Movies
P5a have been working with Hidden Giants to create some imaginative stories. Th children worked in small groups and were all given the same starting points for each part. ‘Once upon a time, Every day, One day, Beacause of that, Because of that, Until Finally’
