Crianlarich PS

We hosted our first reading, event organised by our Reader Leaders, to introduce the new books we have bought for our school library 📚 #readingschools #readingforpleasure

We had a wonderful time having herbal storyteller, Amanda Ediston, into school as part of the Live Literature programme 📚 #liveliterature #scottishbooktrust #readingschools

📚 We are making the most of this weather with a whole school reading session in the sun ☀️ #readingschools #scottishbooktrust #readingforpleasure

🌱 In our first Eco Club this session we headed out to our community woodland to explore native trees 🌳 #wildstrathfillan #trustinthepark #lochlomond #thetrossachs

We walked down to the river today to release our butterflies and create sound maps of our local area 🦋 #outdoorlearning

Primary 5-7 had a brilliant time at the Robotics Competition at McLaren High School! #McLarenSTEM

Happy #WorldBookDay2024 Some wonderful photos from our ‘Get Cosy and Read’ morning 📚 #readingforpleasure #getcosyandread

⚡️In our sustainability topic we’ve been learning about renewable energy. We designed and created our own wind turbines today to investigate how we can harness energy from the wind 💨

🐳 We were so lucky to have Mia from the Scottish Association for Marine Science to speak to us last week about the dangers of ocean pollution and the incredible wildlife we have on our doorstep 🐬🌊

Some practical maths lessons this week 🧮 we’ve been planning and budgeting a trip to Brazil 🇧🇷 and exploring multiplication and division through concrete resources!

We were so lucky to have a morning learning Samba music, linking to our topic of Brazil. The students had the opportunity to play a range of instruments and build up to a longer piece 🇧🇷🥁🪘

🥁 This morning we were treated to a pipe drumming demonstration from instructor Sandy Bayne. Another great opportunity for P4-7 pupils to learn an instrument from August. @stirlingmusiced

Lots of fantastic Jubilee fun today at CPS! We’ve been very busy learning about the Queen, writing and posting letters to HRH, eating delicious scones, watching the fly past in London and enjoying jubilee themed arts and crafts 👑

👑 Inspired by a competition set by the @McLarenHSPE sports ambassadors, Ellis and Erin helped plan our #ReallyRoyalRelay around Crianlarich’s landmarks. We all had a great time filming @ClairePeebles1 @ActiveSchoolStg 👑

Well done to our dancers who have submitted video performances for the McLaren Cluster Dance Competition tonight. They have been practising very hard in school and at home over the last few weeks 👏 @ClairePeebles1 @McLarenHSPE

We’ve had a fantastic day with @KillinPrimary and nursery for our annual sponsored walk. Thank you to everyone who sponsored the pupils 👏 #togetherwearemore

This year we have embedded our new school values of Honesty, Kindness, Resilience and Aspiration. Pupils have worked hard to develop their understanding, awareness and application of them all. Some great quotes in our display and a few that also raise a smile! #togetherwearemore

Another fantastic session at the community garden this afternoon. Pupils planted broccoli, potatoes, leeks, rhubarb, blueberry bushes and begonias. They also got to replant their lupins. Thanks to Dawn and Alan for hosting us again. 🥦🌺
