This week P4-7 were dissecting sunflowers as part of their plants project in science.

The pupils used the different parts of the flower to make an information poster. They then carried out research on their chromebooks to add further details.

We are delighted to be showing off our brand new sports strips. One of our pupils took it upon herself to ask her Dad to sponsor us and we were delighted when he agreed.

Newmore always relishes the opportunity to participate in School Sporting Events and these will make us feel prouder as we attend such events.

HUGE Thank You to Rod Munro Ltd. We are VERY HAPPY!

Our infant class was very excited to have been invited along to Coulhill Primary to see ‘Artie’s Tartan Tales.’ Artie was one half of the well known ‘Singing Kettle.’

The children thoroughly enjoyed their visit and singing along to Scottish Songs.

The children were fabulous ambassadors of our school and behaved impeccably, especially when they had break with the other pupils at Coulhill. We are very proud of them and are so lucky to have such fabulous pupils.

We have Achievement Assemblies regularly to recognise and celebrate the efforts of our pupils.

Today we had a few more than usual!

Well Done everyone and keep up the super work and effort!

A new page has been added to our blog, ‘Termly Plans.’

This is so you can now access the termly plans on here too!

Please go and have a look at our new page and see why it is important to refer to the termly plan.

Thank you!

Our pupils were getting full advantage of our new and improved outdoor area today and were and carrying out their literacy activities using the outdoors today.

P1-4 were doing various literacy challenges.  They had to write their name using stones, sticks and leaves.  They also had to find rhyming words.

P4-7 had to use their senses to make an A-Z list using the environment around them.

The Standards and Qualities page has been updated to include the most up to date Standards and Qualities report and now, a Pupil Version of the School Improvement Plan. Please have a look 🙂
