Well, what a year it has been for this year's Form 8 - a year like no other in so many ways.  Although we have not been able to give them the send off that this talented group of children deserved, they really have left their mark here at Cargilfield and have been amazing in their positivity to keep going right through until the end during this difficult time of Lockdown and social distancing.  They head off to 12 different schools right across the UK, and we do hope that they will come back and see us, so that we can give them the send off they deserve in due course.  Thank you for all that you have done during your time at Cargilfield, and we wish you every success in the future.

Although we were unable to have our traditional end of term and end of year Prize Giving, Forms 4 to 7, and their parents, tuned in to Microsoft Teams to listen to the Headmaster had out various prizes for academic, sport and activities and music.  He spoke to the children about how proud he was of the efforts that they have put in during this time of learning from home, and how the new skills they have learned will help them when they return to school.  All of us have developed new ways of working, including the teachers, and the resilience and positivity that everyone has shown has been truly amazing.  

We wish all Cargilfield families a very happy and relaxing summer holiday and we really are looking forward to seeing all the children back in school in September!

On Friday, we look forward to our Form 8 Prize Giving, which will mark the end of their time at Cargilfield, and will also signal the official end to the Summer Term.

Design Technology at Cargilfield has continued this term, despite the children being unable to access the workshop in school. The children have had great fun learning the new software Tinkercad and their designs have become a reality with over 100 printouts being completed in the past fortnight. Some have been delivered already and the rest will be making their way to the other children soon.  Glow in the dark blue seems to be the most popular choice of colour!

What a year it has been in the Nursery!

‘When the road looks rough ahead, And you're miles and miles From your nice warm bed, You just remember what your old pal said Boy, you've got a friend in me!’

This week back in 1894 the Modern Olympics were born and, of course, the games were due to take place in Tokyo later this summer. P2 have done a topic based on the Olympic Games and have had a lot of fun in their remote learning!

Despite spending the term at home, it has been wonderful to put on a weekly mini concert every Friday during this strange term!  So many children have sent in recordings and we have also had a number of the music teachers perform as well.  In addition, we were very fortunate to put on two concerts from former pupils earlier in the term, and we really did appreciate their support for Cargilfield during this time of remote learning.  There have also been children performing on Thursday evenings during Clap for Carers and our Pipers performed to remember the Battle of Valery in WW2.  A big thank you to Dr Allsop for all her efforts in coordinating all these musical events throughout the term - it has been a lot of fun, and great to see so many children enjoying making music at home!

Do have a look at our Facebook timeline for all this terms concerts.  The most recent one from June 26th can be seen here and here.

Good morning, everyone! As we approach the end of term, it will soon be time to say goodbye to this year's Form 8. They have been a wonderful bunch who have shown incredible resilience over the course of this term, missing out on so many of the traditional Leavers' activities, and yet they have kept going right through to the end.

Today, Mr Walker talks to them about what they learned from their Cargilfield journey and what exciting new adventures lie ahead when they start at their senior schools in September. Listen out for sharks, squids and sole, as well as a very bad Elvis Presley impression!

What a fantastic morning of books, storytelling and so many other activities all focused on books! It was our 3rd Book Festival and despite not being in school this year it was wonderful to see so many brilliant costumes from the children and staff and as well as welcoming a number of authors and storytellers for live sessions, we also dipped in to various recordings from the Hay Festival which has also gone digital this year!

The day was rounded off with the children able to tune in to lots of videos from the teachers who were reading their favourite children’s book in some very strange places!

So much fun and a big thank you to Mrs Lyell for all her hard work pulling it all together.
