We enjoyed inviting our P1 parents and carers into school to hear about reading in P1 and see what learning looks like. #familylearning

A game of camouflage at camp. There is 28 pupils hiding. Can you spot any? #P7camp

Fantastic family day at KPS! The parents, kids and staff worked together to develop our outdoor spaces more. Today, there was a new sandpit, a new roof on the concoction cabin, weaved willow reeds, the start of a living tyre structure and more tyres dug in. #community

Another great parent consultation where we asked parents/carers about our vision, values and aims, our recent sways, UNCRC and shared more about neurodiversity. #yourviewsmatter

Lovely to come back to my desk and see this message from our INSPIRE group! They are re-opening their coffee shop, following training and agreeing a buisness approach with the new members. The staff team at KPS couldn't be happier, and the impact on the learners is clear to see!

A fantastic afternoon of CLPL for teachers based around high quality expressive arts in the primary. Thank you to our hosts, West Calder High and Mrs Hamilton for your efforts and inspirational messages.

Today, we had the privilege of meeting Craig, a real Polar Explorer! Craig came and told the children all about his adventures to the Poles. They were captivated and asked amazing questions! This was organised following a conversation with one of our learners who knows Craig.

We are delighted to launch our library today! We have two very special visitors coming to read to our learners! Thank you to our literacy ambassadors, Mrs MacDonald, and our amazing parent helpers for making this happen. Also, thank you to Scottish Book Trust for all your advice!

Super proud of Primary 5 today for using their data handling skills to complete an escape room! We had to use data sheets to unlock a six digit activation code. We managed to unlock together time. Look at these successful learners!

It was lovely welcoming our parents and carers into school today to hear about our health and wellbeing curriculum. The feedback was very positive.

Great end to the year as the whole school visited the Reconnect Regal Theatre in Bathgate to watch Oor Aladdin. The children had an amazing time. 'Oh no they didn't....' #widerexperiences

Kirknewton staff would like to wish all members of our school community a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. We look forward to seeing you all in 2025.

For any of our learners struggling to understand tomorrow's school closure.

Great in-service exploring approaches to mental health and wellbeing, and hearing from Autistically Scott about what we can do differently to support our autistic learners! Assembly for learners and learning for parents/carers coming soon! WL Equity

On Friday we are running a session for parents and carers about supporting learners with health and wellbeing. If you are interested, please use the QR code to register.

Today, we put down our sensory circuits. These are an easy and enjoyable way for learners to get movement breaks when needed. Our learners, and staff team, are loving them! Thank you to our PSA for funding them #Equity #ASN

We enjoyed welcoming our parents and carers today to hear about expressive arts, our improvements around this area of the curriculum, and why we value it. Their feedback was 100% positive and all enjoyed the experience.
