A huge well done to all the pupils who received one of Mr McCambley’s Golden Postcards! These special postcards are awarded to celebrate pupils who go above and beyond, whether through excellent effort, kindness, brilliant behaviour or outstanding achievements in their learning.
Keep up the fantastic work, we can’t wait to see who earns the next Golden Postcards!
Our topic in Primary 2 is Houses and Homes this term. We have been learning about the different types of houses and went on a village walk to try and spot some of the houses around our village.
We visited Waring House and met Mr Harnett. He taught us about the history of Waring House and we counted all the windows.
We were also delighted to welcome Poppy's Daddy, Mr Sergeant to our class today. He taught us about his job as an architect and gave us the challenge of designing our dream house!
A huge thank you to both Mr Harnett and Mr Sergeant for helping us with our Houses and Homes topic.
Our school recently celebrated Ditch the Dark Day, a special event that reminds everyone how important it is to stay safe and visible during the darker mornings and evenings of winter.
Thank you to all pupils for coming to school dressed in bright and colourful clothing, shining from head to toe, and taking time to accessorise their bikes and scooters.
Huge congratulations to all of the winners, including P7 Mrs Anderson’s class who were chosen as ‘Brightest Class.’
We were delighted to welcome Dave Wiggins from the Walk, Wheel, Cycle Trust, who came in to lead a lively and informative assembly all about keeping safe on our journeys to and from school.
During the assembly, Dave spoke to the children about how wearing bright colours and reflective clothing can make a big difference when walking, cycling, or scooting in low‑light conditions. His message was clear and memorable:
“Be Bright, Be Seen!”—a simple rule that helps keep everyone safe on the roads.
He also worked with both Primary 5 classes conducting an experiment to see what clothing is best to wear in the dark.
A huge thank‑you to Dave Wiggins for inspiring our pupils and helping us all think carefully about road safety. Let’s remember the message all year round:
Be Bright. Be Seen. Stay Safe!
P1 had a very special visit from Miss Carson and baby Billie to help them with their Baby Topic. Miss Carson brought in lots of equipment that she needed for baby Billie and talked to us about how she uses it all. We asked so many interesting questions and learnt lots about babies. Thank you so much Miss Carson and Billie for coming to visit Primary 1. We loved having you back in school!
We are delighted to congratulate our latest group of Golden Postcard recipients! These special postcards, awarded by Mr McCambley, recognise pupils who consistently demonstrate hard work, kindness and excellent behaviour both in the classroom and out in the playground.
Seeing so many pupils earn this recognition at the very beginning of a new school term is truly wonderful. Each recipient should feel incredibly proud of their achievement.
