Pyjama Day Fun!

The Eco Committee wanted to raise awareness of the benefits of having a healthy breakfast, so children were invited to come to school on Friday 13^th September wearing their pyjamas. 

We had a morning exercise class with Mr. Milligan.

Then we had breakfast.  Yummy!

3rd Green Flag

Houston Primary School is delighted to announce that they have achieved the prestigious Eco Schools Green Flag status for the third time! The coveted Green Flag is awarded to schools who exhibit pro-active environmental work covering topics such as water, health and well-being, waste management, litter, transport, school grounds, bio-diversity and energy. The Eco School's assessor, Miss Love, came on the 28th May and was most impressed with the projects which Houston Primary School's Eco Representatives and Eco Rangers spoke so eloquently about. She particularly enjoyed her tour of the school grounds: Eco Greenhouse 'We made this using 2 litre plastic bottles and recycled wood. It took three years to build!' Gym Equipment 'We love it! Mrs. McPherson applied for a grant from the Big Lottery.' Orchard 'We planted 16 fruit trees this year.' Raised Beds 'Each class has its own raised bed. This year we had a country theme.' Bird & Beastie Box 'We collected Morrisons vouchers and got this special home for birds and beasties!'

Harvest Time!

The tomatoes have grown extremely well over the summer months in our greenhouse made from recycled materials.
