So proud of P7b who have been working extremely well during Literacy to create these amazing leaflets and critters. Check out our superb wall display which the children created themselves.
P7B were over the moon at the chance of getting to go on a school trip today, whilst it didn’t make up for the disappointment of not getting to Ardmay, it certainly was a day to remember 💕
P6 are very excited to be finding out their P1 buddies soon and were very busy today writing their letters. We won’t reveal any of their amazing writing so we don’t spoil it for our new Primary ones 🥰
Primary 4 had a fantastic trip to the Battle of Bannockburn centre yesterday. Thank you so much to Caitlin for sharing your knowledge with us and leading an amazing day!
@BannockburnNTS
P6b had a brilliant morning in the rain investigating loose parts play, these boys worked together to build an old fashioned cannon!
