Muirtown has been very active with its Gaelic learning since the beginning of the 1+2 language initiative, which aims to provide all children with the opportunity to learn two additional languages in their primary years.

This book is a must have for Design and Technology in primary. Explains the concepts of how these “Simple Machines” work and challenges children to use them in creative ways.

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.
