Abbotswell Primary 6/7 (2022/23)

The children worked so hard and were all magnificent meerkats, we decided to go outside for fun in the snow as a treat!

Mental Health Awareness Week! We had a therapet, art therapy, healthy food workshop, kickboxing, dancing and a sing a long. It was a great week for P6/7

We had a food and health afternoon and joined Primary 2 to design and create our own healthy smoothies! The smoothies tasted delicious

Room 11 had a furry visitor this morning for Mental Health Awareness Week. His name is Leo and he is a rough border collie, the class loved having him come and say hello

Congratulations to Natalia for receiving Star of the Week for working extremely hard and challenging herself  to create an excellent piece of narrative writing, keep up the fantastic work!

 

The class focus this term is electricity, waves and forces. We were learning about buoyancy which helped up understand why objects sink or float. We discussed density and water displacement. We made predictions and created a hypothesis. We were challenged to create a boat which floats and we saw how many marbles it could hold before it sank. We recorded our results afterwards

.

We loved having PC Jackson for a visit to our classroom to speak about anti-social behaviour. He even let some children try on his heavy uniform and spoke about the items he is required to carry with him to keep himself safe

Primary 6 and Primary 6/7 hosted a Robert Burns afternoon. We experienced a ‘taste of Scotland’ where we got to try lots of different types of famous Scottish foods and we took part in a Burns themed scavenger hunt! 🍽
