We are working to develop opportunities for participation across our school.
Reflecting on The Lundy Model, we are considering how we enable participation through space, voice, audience and influence.
We would love to hear any ideas for how we can extend these areas further.
Our school community have been recognised in 3 categories of this year's Highland Hero Awards! We would really appreciate your votes: Emily Ross - Brave Child of the Year; Chi Meldrum - Primary Teacher of the Year; Muirtown Primary - School of the Year

This book is so easy to get into, informative and inspiring. It is well worth stocking in your upper primary libraries. 😊 #EduSkyPrimary
Speechless by @mrwolfcomics.bsky.social (creator of Mr Wolf's Class) is a masterpiece. So many children, and adults, will be able to relate to Mira and her struggles to speak in public. It's a book bursting with empathy and a perfect graphic novel for the Y5/6 bookshelves. Do track down a copy.
Delighted to receive this from @scottishbooktrust.bsky.social #ReadingSchools @muirtownprimary.bsky.social 💙📚

Big hits are usually the investigators, Pablo and splash, bunny vs monkey, peng and spanners, bumble and snug, Hilda, happy hills and mighty jack.
If it's helpful to schools and teachers, below is the link to a year's worth of picturebook assembly suggestions that have a focus on empathy, diversity, equality and inclusion. They're all books I've used and loved. #edusky padlet.com/Jon_Biddle/r...
