Other classes also took the opportunity of working outdoors in the snow, making the most of the fact that the snow was perfect for making snowballs and snowmen. P4 and P3 classes went outside today to build snowmen. P4C worked together in their co-operative learning groups to build and name a snowman. One group made a snow horse. P4B decided they wanted a change from snowmen and worked together to build a snow dolphin and other animals.
The white stuff is back…
…but the nursery children are making the most of it by shovelling it, building snowmen out of it and they made snow angels!
Their outdoor playsuits, that they bought with the money raised from their sponsored walk, came in use yet again.
Most classes in our school are doing social dancing for their Christmas parties. We are all working very hard and having some fun ! 🙂
P6B and P6A are dancing together for our Christmas party and we all cant wait !
It is normally girls pick boys and then boys pick girls but sometimes it is the other way round for partner picking. We are all doing a variety of dancing and we all have a load of fun !
My class P6B are doing Gay Gordon’s, Grand March, Circle Waltz and many many more !

Results are coming in from the FAIRTRADE elections that were held last week. Here are some of the new Fairtrade representatives.
More results are to follow.
New reps will meet for their first meeting next week.
Primary 4A and 4B were very lucky to be able to go down to the meadows to watch the horse logging last Thursday (Nov 30th). The trip was organised by Aberdeenshire Council and the Forestry Commission.
Over a period of 3 weeks about 155 trees had been moved from the Meadows using the traditional method of horse logging.
They learnt about the importance of the woods for encouraging wildlife, the uses of the forest (for paper production and fuel) and why the forest was being thinned. The Clydesdale horse was being used to move the felled logs because it was able to fit into smaller space that a tractor wouldn’t be able to fit into.
The children were able to stroke Wesley, the horse and help to feed him.
Ther outing was very interesting and everyone enjoyed seeing the horse and learning about logging.
The nursery joined in St Andrews Day celebrations by coming to school in a touch of tartan.
