Maths Week 2023

Ms.Brunner

Learners of the Royal Mile Primary School –

In preparation for this year’s

Here are some ideas from staff to celebrate

at the Royal Mile:

We will launch maths week with a fun buddies

assembly to revise all our hard work on

Primary 3, 4, 6 and 7 will visit the Museum on the Mound –

Located in the historic Bank of Scotland Head Office, this fascinating museum takes a fresh look at money – and much, much more. Art & design, technology, crime, trade and security – all feature in the story of money.

and focus on amazing workshops such as:

  • What is Money? – Investigate a range of extraordinary artefacts once used as money in other cultures. 
  • Heads and Tails – Explore the design and security features of coins. Discover how they were made in medieval Scotland and strike your own.
  • Design Your Own Banknote – Compare and contrast banknotes past and present. Add security features to your own note using stamps and invisible ink.
  • Kists & Keys – Spark conversations about value, some of the benefits and risks of using cards and how to keep money safe using the Museum’s collections, including £1,000,000.

We are hoping to experiment with BBC coding challenges and

Lots of opportunities to play motivating maths games by just scanning QR codes dotted around the school and spend lots of time focusing on

such as maths walks.

We already look forward to a

competition!

for your ideas and suggestions too! 🙂

Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel 2023

MrsHo

Hello everyone,

What a fantastic fortnight of keeping active and trying hard to come to school by walking, scooting or cycling!

All our journeys have been submitted and the results are:

Regional position for small schools in Scotland, we ranked 21st!

Out of all the Edinburgh schools that entered, we came 2nd!

Overall position for all small schools in the UK, with 700+ schools entering, we ranked 83rd!

That is a great achievement and well done to all the learners plus parents and carers for supporting this initiative.

Continue to keep active and hope everyone has a fun filled Spring break!

Mrs Ho
