Time Capsule Project 2021


The whole school were very excited to be involved in the Time Capsule Project and to create our entry for this.

The children created their own art work to reflect their experiences of the pandemic and these have been collated along with our P7 voices who provide a very emotive aspect to our film. We hope you enjoy this and it helps you to remember the challenges and positives of this situation.

Sports Week 2021

This year we couldn't have our traditional whole school Sports Day so instead we organised an amazing Sports Week! The weather was up and down but it didn't stop the teamwork, sportsmanship and smiles! Well done to all our pupils for trying their best and having fun! We hope you like our film of the highlights of the week.

Feedback from parents

"Thank you for making this as fun as can be for the children "

"Thank you so much for sharing a film to give us a wee taste of what the children were up to. Here's hoping we can all be together for Sports Day next year"

'You are Awesome'

March 2021- The primary 4 -7 pupils returned to school on the 15th March after 2 1/2 months at home, learning remotely. It was important that we focused on the children's health and well-being and supported them with their transition back into school. The P 4-7 staff decided to use the book, 'You are Awesome' by Matthew Syed to promote a positive attitude and give the pupils the opportunity to talk about how they were feeling about the return to school.

We hope you enjoy the video they created to share their learning.

"Was lovely to hear the children speak in their own words."

"First rate and very positive."

"It was lovely to see the children focusing on positivity and confidence. They have had such a difficult year with the pandemic and the extended periods of home learning. It’s so nice to see the continued work on growth mindset and celebrating differences. Well done to everybody at Danestone for such a positive start back to school! "

"Fantastic video, thank you for sharing your thoughts. I think there is a lesson in it for everyone. "


"What a lovely film to showcase all the great learning that has taken place in the upper stage classes. The pupils were excited to have the opportunity to discuss their learning and share examples of their learning. The film was also a great way for pupils to see the learning taking place in other classes."
