P4 have been learning about Roman inventions! We have been learning about what aqueducts are, what the Romans used them for, and how they were made. We built our own aqueduct models in preparation for our trip to The Water of Leith aqueduct!

This week primary 5 went to Saughton Park with the Green Team and completed outdoor learning🌳

our learning linked with our topic ’space’. We made planets out of natural materials and aliens out of clay. Take a look at our creations👽

The @sportscotland Active Schools programme lets young people take part in sport.

@ScotGov pledged to remove fees by 2026.

First Minister @JohnSwinney visited St Augustine’s RC High School in Edinburgh to mark the early delivery of this commitment.

P5 have continued their @JohnMuirTrust adventures by going river dipping with the @GreenTeamEdin 🌊. P5 worked together by the River of Leith to see what living things they could find. We also made bird feeders to hang in our school grounds 🐦.
