As part of their project about the senses and Living Things, primary 2 have been growing herbs. They grew parsley, basil and chives.
They enjoyed smelling and tasting the herbs.
On Monday they held a plant sale, selling their plants for 20p per pot. The plants were very popular and sold out quickly. Money raised will be donated to a charity.
The nursery took part in celebrations for the queens jubilee. Children and staff dressed up in red, white and blue and wore crowns that they made themselves. They played party games, and enjoyed food and dancing. Parents were able to join in with the celebrations too. The nursery raised £110 for The Archie foundation.
Primary 1, 2 and 3 classes also wore royal outfits and crowns to celebrate the Jubilee. They all took part in a royal parade.
The Gordon Primary PTA generously gave every pupil in the school a Diamond Jubilee commemorative coin as lasting reminder of the Diamond Jubilee and their days at Gordon Primary. Thank you!
All the children from primary one and two have been working very hard practising for their nativity play. The children will be performing for the whole school on Tuesday the 20th December and will perform again for parents on Wednesday 21st December.
The Nativity tells the story of what happened on the first Christmas when Jesus was born in a stable in Bethlehem. The children are all very excited about dressing up and performing for you all. I’m sure it’s going to be a great show!
On the 13th of December P3B, P3A and P3/2 are going to do a play about The Little Fir Tree for parents and pupils. They have made invitations for mums and dads to come see the play.
The date for pupils to see the play is on the 13th of December and parents on the 14th.
In the cast there are 2 nurses, 5 children in the hospital, 5 sun dancer’s, 31 narrator’s, 6 snowflake dancer’s, 10 dancers, 3 fir trees and 1 little fir tree which make a total of 63 pupil’s performing.
We are all looking forward to seeing the show because they have worked so hard at it.
