Cedars Jubilee Celebration

On Friday many of you attended our Jubilee Celebration evening. It was a super night where we showcased much of the fantastic work we have done this year in music and the arts.

It was a super night and the children were really great. The DVD of the night is available for purchase from Mrs Mole at the school for a minimum donation of £3.

Here are some pictures from the night.

Cedars Jubilee Celebration

Tonight we are holding our Cedars Jubilee Celebration which will be a great way to celebrate the music and topic we have studied over this year.

The evening takes place from 7-8.30pm and is in Lyle Community church on Union St, opposite the old sawmill, just along from the school.

Children should wear full school uniform and be at the church from 6.30pm

Entry to the event is £3 and is payable at the door. There will be plenty of room for all friends and family. Feel free to bring a union flag to wave!

We look forward to a great night.

New Zealand Maths Development

Today we are holding a big Inservice training for our primary staff on implementing the New Zealand Maths strategy in our primary school.

The scheme is recognised as a world leader in developing numeracy and number skills and Mr Creighton and Mr Atkinson have just visited a primary school near Aberdeen that are enjoying great success in developing numeracy using this method.

Today was spent getting to grips with the method and planning for implementing this exciting development in Cedars School to increase numeracy across our primary school.

Drama

Drama students were looking at the role of the director this week. They each had to chose from a selection short, ambiguous texts and then interpret their choice theatrically in terms of character, setting, era, genre, etc.  Everyone really enjoyed it and there were some very creative interpretations!

Once they had completed their theatrical interpretation, they then had direct their peers in the drama they had created:
