Dear Parents/Carers,
Assembly
We celebrated World Ocean Day and considered the vital role the oceans play in our daily lives. Leamington won the House Cup for May!
Bake Sale
Our Bake Sale raised just over £1000 for books in the school. A huge thank you to those who donated baking. A massive thank you too to Lina one of our parents, who was central to this success.
P7 Camp Lagganlia
As I write, 65 tired children and 5 staff are heading down the A9 from Lagganlia back to school. The format was slightly different this year. Our children relished the range of activities; proudly overcoming challenges. Their manners and behaviour was excellent. The Lagganlia staff were full of praise for them and are looking forward to working with Group 2 next week. They’ll all sleep well tonight! If you haven’t already, check out the photo’s from the week by clicking here.
Scottish Veterans Alliance
Scotland’s Veterans Wellbeing Alliance and the Centre for Military Research, Education, and Public Engagement are hosting a celebration for the Armed Forces Community on 20th June 2026 (12pm – 4pm). There’ll be loads of fun activities to get involved in. From arts and crafts, wellness workshops, a treasure hunt for children young and old, a dog show and talent competition, pipes and drums, mocktail making, virtual reality and cake. The history of the site at Craiglockhart Campus is preserved in the War Poets Library, which will also be open for you to have a look round.
Summer Holiday Bike Camps
Summer Holiday bike camps still have spaces, so please see the booking/ information link. We start and finish on the Meadows. Favourite routes include to Portobello beach for an ice cream, Musselburgh BMX track and even over the Forth Bridge to Fife! Summer Bike Camp form: https://forms.gle/M946P4WdbphpRVdJA
Kind regards
