Recently, the school availed of a Thermomix demonstration given by Katie McCracken. 
 
As a result of the Thermomix demonstration the school was donated a Thermomix device which we have enjoyed using to make many and varied dishes for the children from pumpkin soup at Halloween to hot chocolate following the SEAG Tests and pancakes on Shrove Tuesday. 
 
Sincere thanks to Katie and the Thermomix team for the donation of this device to school.  We will use it to the benefit of the children!

Everyone loves to hear good news and this month we were simply delighted to see our new Nursery Teacher, Mrs S Thompson, take up her duties.  Mrs Thompson is a familiar face in school having taught the main school over the course of Term One.
On your behalf, I warmly welcome her to the teaching staff and have every confidence that in due course, you will have the opportunity to welcome her too.
This is a very exciting time for our Nursery Unit as we prepare to move to full-time hours in the new academic year.

Primary 2 recently enjoyed a special visit from Mr Sergeant who works as an architect. He taught the pupils all about designing and building houses. Each pupil was given an exciting challenge to design their own dream house.  Both the visiting parent and the teachers were extremely impressed with the pupils’ entries and a winning design was chosen to receive an exciting prize of a Toymaster voucher! Well done to everyone who took part!

This week, our wonderful kitchen staff prepared a delicious special menu to help us celebrate Chinese New Year. The themed dishes were greatly enjoyed by pupils and staff alike, bringing a real sense of festivity to the dining hall.

A special thank you also goes to our P6 pupils, who helped decorate the area around the dinner hall hatch. Their bright, creative decorations added a fantastic splash of colour and really enhanced the celebrations for everyone.

It was a lovely way to mark this important cultural event, and we are grateful to everyone who played a part in making it so enjoyable.

Primary 6 marked Pancake Tuesday with a fun demonstration led by Mr Allen and Mr Mitchell. Pupils watched as the teachers prepared and cooked pancakes, learning about the ingredients, cooking steps and instructional writing on how to make a pancake.

The class enjoyed observing the process and discussing how the mixture changed at each stage. Afterwards, pupils were able to choose from a selection of toppings and enjoy freshly made pancakes together.

It was a simple but enjoyable way to celebrate Pancake Tuesday while linking learning to real‑life experiences.

A special thanks goes to Mrs Turner, Mrs Jennett and Miss Chapman for all the ingredients, preparation and making of the pancakes.
