Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel!

Starting from Monday 20th until Friday 31st, Royal Mile Primary School will be participating in the Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel competition. This is a UK wide initiative to help all of us keep active and fit by walking, wheeling, scooting and cycling to school so that we reduce car journeys, improve air quality and help the environment. Research shows that the more active we are, the more alert and energised we will be – ready for our learning.

We hope all the children can work together to help the school win some fantastic prizes. Thank you in advance to all the parents who will be supporting us.

More information can be found on the Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel website where you can also see a full list of the prizes.

Let’s all get ready for some active journeys to school next week!

Another great week!

Hello everyone,

I am so proud of my class! They have been super stars this week (again!).

We have had a week full of science activities and experiments, exploring and predicting what will happen in different situations and how certain things are connected.

Experimenting to see what is the connection between items that float and those that sink. We were surprised about some things we predicted to sink actually floated!

We were reminded why it is so important to wash our hands thoroughly with soap and water!

On Wednesday, we were invited to visit the Scottish Poetry Library which is less than 5 minutes away from school. The children had a lovely time listening to different poems and looking at the books. If any parents are interested, you can always take your child there to make a free membership card and they can take out new books at their leisure.

We ended the week with our fantastic P3 showcase assembly! The class did so well to tell the whole school about our learning so far and Leon was a shining star, leading everyone in the whole school singing!

Well done Primary 3! Keep up the good work!

We are all stars!

What a fabulous week we have had!

The children have all worked hard on comparing numbers using the greater than, less than and equals sign.

We had our Royal Mile’s got Talent showcase on Friday and every class showed off some talents to the whole school. Primary 3 entered as The Awesome Stars singing “You are a Star” and each and every member sang their hearts out! Well done to them! Even though we didn’t win, they all showed great sportsmanship by cheering on the winners and it’s the taking part that counts…in my eyes, P3s were the stars and winners! ;p

We look forward to lots of Science week activities this coming week!

Have a nice weekned.
