Ballroom Dancing
For P.E. primary 6A and 6B classes have been doing ballroom dancing. We have been learning the Elephant Walk- it is very funny to do or to watch, also the song is very catchy. The Quick Waltz is very elegant, then there is the Mambo which is very hard and you need to be fast at it.
Mr.Robertson has been teaching us the dances, it is fun.

Swap ‘A’ Book Day
The learning Council have organised “Swap a Book day” to coincide with world book day. Swap’ a’ book day is when you take in books that you dont want anymore and that your parent says you can take them in. You can take one book in (or you could take as many as you want) and then you will be able to choose a book to take home. All books are free. Swap ‘a’ book day is on 6th March 2014. We hope we get lots of books to swap, so that everyone is able to choose a book that they really enjoy!

Chinese New Year and Robbie Burns
Primary 6A from Gordon Primary school were wondering if you would be kind enough to include in your article about our Chinese day on Friday 31st January 2014. With a chinese pupil joining our class we decided to base our topic on a trip that starts in Huntly and ends in Fujian, China. We worked in our co-operative groups to pull it off and produce our very own travel guide. We started off the day by doing some Chinese homework talks including some power points and a song composed by a pupil. Then we went on to dressing up in Asian and Scottish clothes.
We have our very own China wall in our class with some pictures we made in homework. Some of us chose to write about how people in China live and work. We also got to learn a Scottish poem for homework that we would read to the class. We had to include actions and the best three will be chosen as winners. then one of them will read their winning poem at Assembly.

Nursery
The nursery children have been making puppets at home with their parents. They also built a car for Mr Mole so he can get home and they have been introducing Mr Mole to new friends. They have all been very kind to him. They have been telling everyone about their animal, like what its name is, what it is and loads more about their animal. There teachers were very impressed and very pleased with their animals.
