Burns' Supper

On Thursday 23rd January, our P6 and P7 pupils took part in their annual Burns Supper. Members of staff and our Parent Council were also invited to share in the occasion. The children delivered a lively Address to the Haggis, spoke about the life and legacy of Robert Burns, and enjoyed an evening filled with singing and dancing. My sincere thanks go to all staff, pupils, and to Mrs Lewis for providing the music that helped make the night so special. We are also extremely grateful to our kitchen staff for preparing such a wonderful and tasty feast for everyone to enjoy.

Football Visit

Pupils at Newington Primary enjoyed a special visit yesterday from members of the Scottish Football Association ahead of the Rangers v Annan Athletic match taking place tonight at Ibrox. The highlight of the afternoon was the arrival of Annan Athletic Manager Wullie Gibson and striker Tommy Muir, who spent time chatting with the children and answering their questions. Pupils were particularly excited to learn more about both the men’s and women’s trophies, and many took the opportunity to have their photograph taken with them. It was a memorable and inspiring visit for everyone involved.
Members of the SFA also commented that, although they have visited many schools over the years, Newington’s pupils were among the most polite and well‑behaved they had ever met. This was wonderful feedback for the school community to receive.
