We can’t believe we are starting week 4 of school already! The P1s in our class started school full time today which is very exciting. The P2s are looking forward to showing them how we spend our afternoons in P1/2. This week the P1s will have their first PE class with our PE specialist Mr Friel. We have been learning all about movement, balances and gymnastics. It has been great fun!

Last Tuesday some of our P1 parents came into school for a curriculum talk and then had lunch with us in the dining hall. They were very well behaved. It was exciting to try it on our own today!

We are all really enjoying our book study topic at the moment, reading lots of different Julia Donaldson books. Last week we read “Sharing a Shell”. Then we decorated our own shells and wrote down different things that we can share with each other in our class. Our sharing shells are now up on our classroom window for everyone to see.

This week we are continuing with our Julia Donaldson stories, looking at “One Mole Digging a Hole”. The P1s will continue to look at their numbers to 5 and P2s are starting to look at counting on and back in 2s.

Watch this space as we continue to share more of our learning with you!
