P1 Nativity

On Tuesday 17th December the Primary 1 Classes did their Nativity, they did one show for the parents and another for the school! The parents and all the pupils thought it was great!

There were 5 children in Pyjamas narrating the story of the first christmas, the singing was great and they remembered the words really well, the songs were very merry! The Nativities are always good but this was one of their best ones!

P3 Assembly

Mrs Jamieson’s Primary 3 class shared what they have been learning in a very interesting assembly attended by staff, pupils and P3 parents.

The children had been watching the Nutcracker ballet.

The children thought about the main characters in the ballet, (Clara, the Nutcracker, the mouse king) and thought about wow words to describe them. They also described the setting of the story.

They wrote their own endings to the story of the Nutcracker. In science they made simple circuits, drew pictures of the Nutcracker and used the circuits to light up the buttons of their Nutcrackers.

They also really enjoyed watching the ballet and listening to the music.

Well done Primary 3; thank you for sharing your project with us!

p7 assembly

Last week in assembly the p7 Mrs McIntosh’s  class did an assembly about World War two. They even made up their own play by making their own script. It was a really good play, there was even a song that they sang. Ellie  made an Anderson shelter; she told us what an Anderson shelter was for, and interesting facts and information about the anderson shelter. Duncan  made some food for his family using the kind of food that were available during WW2, and he said it was lovely.  Chris made a aeroplane and it was very good. Duncan also made all of the backrounds that were on the power point and it was very good. Some of their parents attended the assembly and were very impressed.

Last Thursday Mrs Chalmers and Mrs Pettitt came into school to help P4B finish their crow masks.

The children decorated their masks with black feathers and glitter. They looked very effective!

The class then sang the scottish song “Three Craws sat upon a wa’. ”

Thank you Mrs Chalmers and Mrs Pettit for coming in to help us.
