A fantastic YetFest (our end of term celebration) for all our pupils. Our Gladiators theme saw them decorate sweatbands, enjoy an inflatable obstacle course, face the duelling challenge and complete the slip-and-slide. Making memories! #OurCommunity

Amazing email just in this morning- we have achieved our Gold award from @RSPBScotland. Great work across our school this year working towards this. #OutdoorLearning #BigBirdWatch #WildWednesday

Some excited children at @MorebattleP this morning after a pupil donated us a #MichaelMorpurgo book he signed last night at @mainstreethare! Great addition to our school library📚 #WorldBookDay2024

5 years studying @MorayHouse and I did it! Master of Education in Leadership and Learning! Couldn’t have done it without the teams @MorebattleP and @YetholmP and the amazing support from my family and great tutors.

Must be doing something right.

My #schoolhighlight today was working with my wonderful PT on School Improvement Plan and Scoping Document redrafting for @MorebattleP and @YetholmP. She is fab, just putting up with my train of thought alone must be hard @Cath050729 👏🏻 #wegotthis

[Catherine Douglas @Cath050729]

@JRWilson101 @MorebattleP @YetholmP It’s probably not as hard as you listening to my ramblings! Thanks Boss!

Today was a good day 🐓🥚😊 https://t.co/8pTiDTYYGV

This morning we welcomed a team of headteachers and a QIO from @SBCEducation1 to our school. We were able to show them around our school (including a tour from senior pupils) before getting a chance to visit classes and observe learning

Community Links at its best yesterday- the village flower show (the 129th year) featuring produce from school children including the chance to do extra at home. Brilliant to hear comments on the work of our children.

#DailySmile #pedagoofriday is more of a shout out- @Cath050729, our fantastic PT has been amazing throughout this week. SLT in small schools are a talented bunch I tell you! Thank you for listening; laughing; making me smile; helping me process and challenge/develop thinking 👏🏻

@LauraNisbet @YetholmP @JRWilson101 It was an absolute pleasure to teach him and see him progress academically and grow in confidence. Hope you won’t be a stranger ☺️

[Catherine Douglas @Cath050729]

Our official Christmas card for 2020 will feature a design from Yetholm Primary School pupil Harvey Sanderson. Congratulations to Harvey and to the other prize winners https://t.co/WodtWEkONw

Really proud of this piece of work that a pupil decided to do at home independently after discussing the #BuildingResilience theme of Make a Difference in class. Great to see such #ResponsibleCitizens in our rural school caring about their environment @GCWellbeing

[YetholmPS @YetholmP]

Loved to see (and hear) the play happening in our ELC outdoor environment. We are desperately seeking funding to develop our area further- does anyone have ideas, contacts or suggestions that they know of that we could try? @SBCEducation1 @EdScotLfS @earlyyearsscot @CareInspect
