Thank you very much to the Learning council for organisisng Swap a Book day earlier this month. It was a great event and Gordon Primary hope it will happen again next year. The left over books were sold for 10p or 20p on the 28th March to raise money for the Learning Council. They raised £180, which will go towards Driel, Gordon Primary’s sponsored child.

P4 Library Visit
P4b went to the library to learn about gladiators or markets for our Roman project. We learned a lot about the gladiators and markets. Most boys chose to study gladiators and most girls studied markets. We all wrote some interesting facts and learned more from each other. We are enjoying doing Romans. We also wrote about the gladiators and markets and made our own villa. We had to choose a book and find the right information. After that we could look around the library. It was a big library for Huntly. Some of the people looked at some very interesting books. The people that worked in the library talked about getting a library card. Some of the people chose very interesting books. After a while William came back from the weekend with a library card that the workers at the library were talking about. We had a fun time at the library when we were searching for information about gladiators and markets. If you haven’t been to Huntly library then I think you should go to the library. You can borrow and use books,talking books and DVDs. There are non – fiction books and fiction books. When it was time to go we didn’t want to leave. We had a brilliant time.

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!
