VALUES

At Lundin Mill  we believe that our positive school ethos and climate of respect and trust under pin the learning in the school.

• We value our school and community
• We value respect
• We value responsibility
• We value friendship
• We value honesty
• We value ourselves and each other

Our school aims are based on the four capacities.

As a staff team in partnership with pupils, parents and the community we will work together to ensure that our vision, values and aims are reflected in the daily life of the school.  We are committed to recognising pupil achievement and positive behaviour.  Every pupil belongs to a House, Links, Keil, Selkirk or Massney, and collect house points.  A House Trophy is awarded at assembly.  We also have various events throughout the year when houses compete against each other.  We have a very effective Buddy system where P1 and P4 pupils are buddies.  Each week the buddies meet for a shared literacy or numeracy time. Pupils can achieve a Headteacher Award for a variety of reasons, e.g. citizenship, contribution to the life of the school, successful learning, etc. These are presented at whole school assemblies. Out of school achievements are recorded by pupils in their Learning Logs.  We also value our community links and participate in community events.  Our school chaplain, the minister of the local parish regularly visits the school.

Lundin Mill Primary School was built in 1974. The main block is circular in shape. The six semi-open plan teaching areas all lead directly into the central hall, which is used for PE, drama, assemblies and school meals, with each pair of rooms sharing a tiled wet area and a set of toilets. The rooms are carpeted and have an outside wall mainly of glass which gives them a bright open feeling.

The semi-open plan nature of the main building encourages classes to work together and enables children to get to know other staff and pupils. The school is situated in very attractive grounds and there is an extensive grass area which is used for outdoor activities.

Our nursery accommodation is in a hut within the school grounds. It has its own entrance and an outdoor play area.

Within our school grounds we have developed a wildlife garden.  This area is used by classes to study insect and plant life. We are also developing other areas for growing our own food stuffs
