So proud of my wee class for all their hard work, creativity and enthusiasm in this little project and they won the competition! 😎🌲
We love this rap written and performed by P6 pupils at Colinton Primary School, which was a winner of our 'Trunk not Junk' competition to inspire drivers to stop littering:

So proud of my stars! My dreams of whole class songwriting are finally coming true 👏🌟
Primary 6 have really outdone themselves in the creation of their own song "Save our Earth" youtu.be/CtT_iThXM8I
They came up with the idea and the words themselves after learning about COP26 and watching a similar @FischyMusic video. Have high expectations,always! 🌟#exparts

Delighted to have my own class again this year and a lovely one at that! Quote of the day: "Miss Billes, you should be performer", to which the response was of course "I already am". Here's to more fun with my P6 stars 🌟🎶

Just a year after starting out and I have shifted from the left to right column in all areas. Was so lovely to speak to some MA4 students today from @UoD_ESW before they embark on their final placement. Remember these things and you'll be fab! @nikdoig
