Fantastic running from P6 and P7 yesterday at the Meadows Cross Country event.

Wow, Ms Chadwick challenged our brains this morning. Every class was given a Big Brain Stretch Challenge at our School Assembly. It was really tricky but we worked out the answers together. Good luck with creating your own Brain Stretch Challenges at home, everyone will be given a Brain Stretch Challenge sheet tomorrow to take home. I am really looking forward to testing my brain and will be creating my own Brain Stretch Challenges for each class. If you can’t wait until tomorrow to get started then go to your class page and have a look …

Wonderful Assembly this morning from Primary 3, thank you for sharing your learning with us. We discovered lots of interesting facts about Edinburgh and we were treated to some Scottish Country Dancing 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

It was a pleasure to share our learning with the Headteachers from Hermitage Park Primary and Clermiston Primary and the Principal Teacher from Echline Primary School today. Our pupils were able to share, explain and talk about their learning in numeracy. We received lots of positive comments and feedback and will use this to inform our learning journey in numeracy at Tollcross Primary. It was a pleasure to work  and collaborate with colleagues across our city. A big thank you to the staff and pupils  who welcomed our visitors and shared classroom practice and learning.

Thank you to all the parents and carers who came along  to the launch of our whole school Big Brain Stretch Challenge today. This is  part of our Number of the Day approach and aims to raise attainment in  numeracy at Tollcross Primary. Hope everyone is ready for the Big Brain Stretch Callenge home learning activity. Thank you to Miss Chadwick for leading this initiative in our school 🙂

Thank you to the wonderful Steve at Drumfun, another great day of loud learning fun at Tollcross Primary.
