Rothiemay Primary School

Spring is officially on the way! Robins Class put their mapping skills to the test, following the trail to find "new" life and "old" stones. From spotting spring flowers to tracking hidden footprint of the ancient castle, it’s amazing what adventures are right on our doorstep.

Huge congratulations this weeks pupils who earned their River Point bands. They are true role models who demonstrate our school values every day! We also celebrated our swimming superstar for showing incredible perseverance and moving up to the next level!

Incredibly proud of our P6/7's for their effort and enthusiasm in another fantastic @ScottishOpera performance today. 👏

We were excited to use our new reading area for World Book Day yesterday, The official chosen name is ' The Reading Neuk'. P5-7 were great reading buddies to the younger students who were fantastic listeners. "It was really relaxing", "The book was really funny"

P5-7 have been busy learning some Playmaker leadership skills. They will start leading lessons for the younger students next week.

Lots of fun costumes and PJ's for World Book Day today. 📚

Get those costumes and PJs ready. World Book Day is tomorrow! We’re so excited to see our pupils and staff dressed up as their favorite characters or curled up in their cozy pajamas with a great book. See you all in the morning! #WorldBookDay2026 #LoveReading #BookCharacters

🌍How do our choices affect the world? Our students answered by launching the "Grow-Out, Not Throw-Out" school wardrobe! ♻️ Reduce & Reuse: Donate or collect pre-loved uniforms. Where: Main school entrance. When: Anytime during school hours. 🌱 #Sustainability #Reuse

Our P1 to 5 pupils were gripped as mini-scientists, dissecting owl pellets, sorting bones & identifying the menu! 🐭 We also discussed owl declines & why protecting habitats is vital for our world. Thanks Angie! 🦉✨

P5-7 thoroughly enjoyed pulling apart and learning about owl pellets today. They found a rat skull along with many types of bones! 🦉

We really enjoyed having a special visitor to class last week, showing us the early signs of spring.

The Primary 7's are very pleased with their hoodies. A huge thank you to those involved in organising this.
