Milton Primary SchoolCheck out P1/2… they were all hard at work applying their measuring skills to make some delicious fruit kebabs. The boys and girls in P3/4 and P5/6/7 were delighted when Miss Spicer’s class shared their lovely fruit snacks with them too!
Well done P1/2👍

This term as a school we will be setting family talk homework.
What is Talk Homework?
Talk homework is a planned discussion which takes place at home, topics should interest all family members regardless of age.
Whole school tasks will be set every 2 weeks on a Thurdsay, then class talk homework will be set every other week. The children will spend 30 minutes in class each Thursday discussing and sharing their homework
Ultimately we want to improve children’s listening and talking habits so we will be developing a consistent whole school approach to aid the development of quality listening and talking at Milton.
A child can only speak or write within the range of vocabulary or structures that they have already learned within the home, community or school. We need your help to support your child in learning new words and phrases, this will help their learning in reading and writing too!
The first talk mat can be accessed by clicking the link below, you may wish to print and record your responses and ideas in you child’s homework jotter. Please feel free to print the talk mat and record responses on here if this is easier.
What an exciting year this is sure to be for Balnagown, Kilmuir and Logie.
The election results were revealed today. The boys and girls presented their campaigns on Monday at assembly and their peers cast their votes yesterday.
Well done to everyone who put themselves forward and best wishes to our new recruits!
Do you have a special skill or talent you could share with a small group of boys and girls or do you have a spare 45 minutes for the next 6 Friday’s?
We are looking for someone to support our golden time activities on a Friday between 2.15 and 3.00 each week in term one.
Can you knit or do you know someone else that can? We think a knitting challenge could be fun!
Please visit the office we want you to become involved in the school and share your skills !
Mrs Sinclair would like to say a HUGE thank you to all of the boys and girls who made her wedding day extra special!
What an amazing, thoughtful and very special surprise for the children to turn up at her wedding.
Not only did they make it along to her wedding but they also wore their uniforms (in the holidays) 👍
THANK YOU – special memories forever 💝
A warm welcome to all of our Milton Nursery new starts. Mrs Forth and Miss McClymont are amazed at how quickly they have settled in. The children were exploring their new outdoor environment today…judging by their faces I think they were having fun! 😃
Milton’s latest P1 recruits appeared to be enjoying themselves today in the canteen with Mairi’s macaroni receiving top marks! Our new canteen set up is proving a big hit with the pupils, our waiters and waitresses are doing amazingly well. Just look at those P1 smiles 👌
