P6 (Mrs. Sanders and Mrs. Emmerson) have been set a challenge to create a presentation over a period of time. They can work on their own, in pairs or in threes. It can be anything from sport to fashion, from the Great Barrier Reef to the Smurfs. We will update you about this in a fortnight.

The nursery have been learning about lots of things including “people who help us”. The nursery children told me that they have learned that a nurse makes you better and firemen travels in a fire engine. They have been outside looking at spring flowers and they found crocuses which were purple and white.

On Thursday P6 had a visitor from the Scottish Parliament. The lady told us how parliament works using a slide show. We were divided into 6 groups or parties and we had to pick candidates to represent each group. There was an Animal Welfare Party, a Computer Party, a Music Party, a Save the Earth Party, a School Party and a Sporty Party. The leader had to say a speech about their group. Using a ballot paper we had to vote for the group we liked best. We also learnt about debating. We were debating if we should or should not have school uniform. We decided we should. We all had lots of fun.

Miss Jamieson’s, P6/7 class had a debate over whether homework is vital for a child’s education or not. Half of the class were in the pros team which were the team trying to keep homework. The other half were in the cons team which were the team trying to get rid of homework.
We had 4 pieces of card that said yes, no, abstain and request to speak. We gathered around the biggest table in our class and had a debate. You held your request to speak card when you wanted to speak.
In the end 3 went for abstain they didn’t want to vote
10 went for yes we would like homework
11 went for no, homework is boring.
Although the cons may have won we still get homework.

Primary 4/5 have been learning about the battle of Falkirk. We did computer research, writing and listening. At the Battle of Falkirk the English fought the Scots with William Wallace as their leader. English archers poured arrows down on the Scots schiltrons and William Wallace fled. English soldiers caught William and he was hung, drawn and quartered. His body parts were sent back to Scotland as a warning…
