Primary 3/4 were very excited to show Mr Wilson their Maths Week work. We had two brilliant marble runs experimenting with height, angle and momentum. Then an example of the budgeting task- to design a playground. Well done! #MathsInMotion #MathsWeekScot

#pedagoofriday this week is courtesy of P3/4 and there marvellous maths. CPA method, active learning, play-based approach… #SuccessfulLearners

First full week back has been busy! Our #PedagooFriday moment- outdoor learning in the community 👍🏼

A snapshot of learning this week… today is from Primary 1-2 during outdoor learning on Tuesday morning #localcommunity #outdoorlearning #responsiblecitizens

As part of our efforts in school to mark the coronation we officially opened our new garden, had a picnic lunch, played games and danced together outside and created a coin trail- look how well it turned out. #Coronation @RoyalFamily @SBCEducation1

As part of our Scottish Heritage focus P3/4 made their (child-friendly) version of cranachan this week- we promise their was no whiskey in sight! They also discussed how to create a dairy-free alternative so that everyone could be involved.

We meant to share our good news sooner…look what we were awarded! Thank you Mrs Wauchope for all your hardwork in helping us to reach this point @WoodlandTrust #GreenTreeSchoolAward #outdoorlearning

How incredible- our fundraising efforts through our enterprise project earned £900 for @MaggiesCentres Edinburgh in memory of our teacher. For a school of 53 pupils this is phenomenal. Thank you to our community, family and local businesses for supporting us #ResponsibleCitizens

What a wonderful Christmas show today- this morning was super and then this evening was even better! So proud of each and every pupil for doing their best and pulling the performance together. #ChristmasSpirit #StrawAndOrder

Community Links at its best yesterday- the village flower show (the 129th year) featuring produce from school children including the chance to do extra at home. Brilliant to hear comments on the work of our children. “It takes a village to raise a child” #tradition #culture

This week- outdoor learning, volcanic eruptions, rugby training…what a busy week we’ve had and that’s on top of all our other fabulous lessons! #learning #RuralSchool #InterdisciplinaryLearning

Tour of Britain passing through our village this morning. We were the site of the end of the first Speed Sprint. Lots of learning and excitement! @SBCEducation1

Primary 1-4 started a collaborative art project this morning with Mr Wilson. We are hoping it will look like an optical illusion when it’s done, similar to this one 🤞🏼hopefully we will post our finished picture soon.

Primary 5-7 made a start today on their competition entries for the upcoming Morebattle Village Flower Show. After years of not being able to do this is was exciting to be getting ready again #community #partnerships

In our first assembly of the year we welcomed our new P1’s. We celebrated some fantastic work and positive attitudes across the school. Remember we love to celebrate wider achievements too- if you have anything from summer we would love to know and get your photo on the wall!

Learning, laughing and getting back into the swing of things. Great to be back together and planning for the year ahead. We will be focussing on raising attainment in writing and outdoor learning, to name a few, which we want to involve our families and community with too!

It’s been a while since we tweeted but it’s the start of a new school year and we are back (and have unlocked the password for the account!) We are looking forward to sharing excellent practice and connecting with our community and colleagues around the Twitter-world!
