We have held our annual Dragon’s Den event. P4/5/6/7 pupils have worked in groups to decide upon a product to sell at the Christmas Craft Fair. They made a prototype, costings and resource list and then presented their ideas to the Dragons. There are some very imaginative and creative products this year and production has started! Of course, Nursery and P1/2/3 will also be making crafts to sell. As usual we will start with Carol Singing around the village at 6pm and then make our way down to the Hall for our Craft Fair at 7pm.

Today was our Day of Action! We had great fun laying our clay stepping stones with Alison, making a bog area and minbeast garden with Miss Houghton and Miss Brown. Nursery and a group of P1/2/3 children made bird feeders with Richard English, the Forest Ranger. Mrs Baillie and her group planted our tubs with winter plants. Mrs Ritchie and her group worked very hard tidying and sweeping the garden. P4/5/6/7 made amazing bird houses and a hedgehog house with Isla’s Dad and they are dotted around the garden and playground. As soon as we can we will put photos onto the site so you can see us in action!

Miss Leslie is looking for volunteers to help with paired reading. You do not have to have a child at the school, perhaps you live in the village and have some spare time that we can use! Click on the link to find out more. invite-letter-oct-08

Primary 1/2/3 have been working with Mr Turnbull from the Arts and Cultural Department. He is a musician and teacher. Pupils have been exploring instruments and using music to tell the story of Marvin. Pupils have been conducting their own compositions. We can’t wait to hear their final pieces!

Heat, Light and Sound October 28, 2008

As part of Primary 1/2/3’s new topic they have been looking at sources of heat energy. Through discussion they made a list of things in the home that provide heat. Pupils then worked in groups to make a collage using pictures from old catalogues and magazines. This has obviously stimulated interest as some pupils have brought in drawings, books and work they have done at home. It is nice too see such enthusiastic children!
