Welcome back Primary 4/5

Just a quick post to wish everyone a happy return to school, hoping everyone is settled and ready to learn!
It has already been a whole month back! Where has time gone??!!

I also wanted to share with families the home learning for the week. Please, note that the Spelling grid has suggestions for every spelling pattern, I will update the spelling pattern every week but the spelling tasks will remain the same or similar for the term.
There are also suggestions for Mental Agility (Maths and Numeracy) with links to online games and suggestions for activities at home.

Please, remember that Home Learning can be flexible and you can adapt it to your timings and routines and there should be no pressure to complete it all in one week. Do as you can, and it will be enough.
Learners are also taking a reading book from the Library to promote reading for pleasure, which will have a weekly task with it.

I hope it all makes sense, any doubts, please catch me at the end of the day for a quick chat, or email to school if your enquiry requires a longer answer.

Best wishes.

Mr Dominguez

Playground Leaders

Hi and thank you for checking in on us! 🙂

Take a look at Holyrood House’s initiative to make our play and lunch times more exciting!

Pupils part of this team worked hard to come up with fun games. We then practised explaining and playing these in the hall and on the playground!

We hope that you will enjoy our suggested activities!

Find a Holyrood Horse if you would like to find out more! 🙂

P3/4 Home Learning and News w/b 11th May 2026

Last week was a short week but we were able to have a visit from a retired farmer from the Royal Highland Educational Trust volunteer service. It was wonderful to listen to the class ask really interesting and well thought out questions to find out about life as a farmer and what was produced on the farm. At the same time they compared farming to experiences that they had come across in their own lives.

We will be starting singing with our National Youth Choir of Scotland input on Monday. We will be changing our Wednesday PE slot to Monday after lunch as P4 will be starting a block of swimming week beginning 22 May and P3 will be continuing with PE. An email will be sent to P4 parents to make you aware of what equipment is needed for attending swimming at Abbeyhill Primary.

Home Learning this week will be sent home on Monday in the Home Learning bag and should be returned on Friday. In the bag to be undertaken at home will be the Weekly Spelling Words, Maths Challenge sheet, non fiction reading book, Mental Maths Rainbow Challenge sheet and Other Curriculum Challenge sheet – Farm to Fork.
