Today our Primary 4 pupils went outside to continue their current maths topic of symmetry. Some children worked in groups, some in pairs and others by themselves, to create a symmetrical picture on the ground of whatever they wanted. Afterwards, the children had opportunities within the classroom to look at all the photographs and discuss just how symmetrical they were.
This was a great opportunity to extend our Primary 4 pupils' knowledge of symmetry.

We were delighted to welcomeauthor, Steven Park, back to our school recently for a very special book‑signing event. Pupils from across the year groups gathered with great excitement as Mr and Mrs Park both signed the books they purchased.
We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Mr and Mrs Park, for their time and generosity. They kindly donated a copy of their book, Sasi’s Place in Space, to our school library as well as 10% of all sales directly to our school fund. This donation will support literacy resources and reading initiatives that help foster a love of books throughout our school community.
The Dairy Council were in school recently delivering their Food and Fitness programme to Primary 5 and 6. The pupils enjoyed an active session with Hannah and Kerri learning about the different food groups, including dairy products, and the importance of exercise in our lifestyle. The children all enjoyed learning and participating in the programme.
World Book Day was a wonderful success this year, filling our school with creativity, colour, and a shared love of reading. Children across all year groups enjoyed celebrating their favourite stories in a fun and imaginative way.
To mark the occasion, pupils and staff were invited to dress up as their favourite book character or decorate a wooden spoon to represent a character they love. From classic storybook heroes to modern favourites, our classrooms were filled with an incredible variety of characters brought to life through thoughtful costumes and beautifully designed spoons.
World Book Day reminded us all of the JOY that reading can bring.
A huge well done to all of our pupils for taking part and helping to make the day so memorable.
Today saw the start of Forest School for our Primary 4 pupils. We went outside to our Forest School 'classroom' and the children, in groups, created a picture of a polar animal. The children loved working with their hands and the freedom that the outdoors gave us.
