Below is a copy of the school Digital Use Acceptance Policy which every pupil has to read and agree to at the start of each term. It explains how technology, the internet, and digital devices should be used safely, responsibly, and respectfully while supporting children's learning both in school and when accessing school resources online.
Our pupil of the week demonstrated many of our Meerkat values in particular teamwork and enthusiasm and for making a positive contribution in the classroom all week. Well done!
Young people aged 5 to 21, who live in Scotland for at least 6 months a year, can apply for a free bus pass. You can use this to travel on most bus services in Scotland for free.
If the pupils have their free bus card available for school trips this would enable us to make the most of opportunities for excursions to support learning.
You can apply using the following link.
This is the Primary 5/6 Class Charter. We discussed as a class which UNCRC Articles and responsibilities we should focus on in our classroom this school year.
The pupils then voted and the top 3 chosen were - Article 12 everybody has the right to have an opinion and to be heard, Article 19 everybody has the right to be safe and protected and Article 31 everybody has the right to play.
The class chose to represent their charter with video game characters.
Term 1 Overview
We will develop their writing through Cypic writing activities, explore texts using reflective reading task maps, and take part in regular spelling activities to build confidence and accuracy.
We will focus on 2D & 3D shape along with Patterns and Relationships and Maths in the Real World. We will also be doing daily CLIC sessions to reinforce others areas of Maths.
We will explore positive relationships, emotional wellbeing, healthy lifestyles, and strategies to help them stay safe, happy, and confident. Also through PE and RADS sessions.
We will explore Earth and space, investigating the solar system, weathering and erosion, rocks and fossils, and space exploration through a range of practical, hands-on activities and investigations.
We will start our term with a focus on 'Caring Citizens' - building positive relationships with our peers and creating our class charter setting expectations for our year.
We will then move on to our 'Around the world' topic, where we will choose a continent to focus on.
