Multi-sensory Learning - Parents Evening Term 1


During our two Parents Evenings recently, our three Support for Learning Teachers organised a Multi-Sensory Learning Workshop with PowerPoint presentation and activities to guide what it is and what it looks like. 
Multi-sensory learning is an engaging way to learn and help all children achieve to their full potential. For a copy of the Power Point presentation click here… and for photos of the activities on the night click here   

Children in Need Visitor


In recognition of their excellent fundraising efforts over the years our P7 children and staff had a visit from Mary, who is in charge of  Children in Need Scotland and its pocket of money and Julie from the Bank of Scotland. 
They were both very impressed by the children, their behaviour and commitment. Mary was also really impressed by the deep thinking, tough questions the children had for her to answer.
  
Once again this year our P7 classes will be organising lots of fun fundraising activities for the whole school to enjoy on Children in Need Day which is on Friday 13th November 2015.
