Learning in P5-7 20.11.2025

 

Good morning P5-7,

here are a few activities for you to work on today, should you get the chance.

  • Sumdog challenge- log on and have a go at the practice task or the competition. If you can’t remember login details, send me an email and we will get it to you.
  • Snowflakes- find out all about snow here.
  • Check out the snowflake shapes above. How many different symmetrical snowflakes can you draw?
  • 3D shape snow city – Build a city from snow using only 3D shapes (cubes, cuboids, pyramids…)  You could use tupperware, cups, buckets to mold the show. Remember to take a photo of your creation!
  • Observe the birds –  Sit near a window and make a note of how many birds and which different species visit your garden. If you have bird seed, put it out to attract the birds to where you are watching them.
  • Click here to learn how to talk about the weather in Gaelic.

Children in Need

A big thank you to everyone who sent in a donation for Children in Need on Thursday. P5-7 did a great job organising games and activities and judging the competitions. We had jokes, dancing, drawing and designing, a quiz and some fantastic outfits! We raised £45 this year, a fantastic amount for a wee school!

 

PC Cain visit to Room 2

Today we had a visit from our local police officer PC Cain. In the playground she showed us her police car, the important things she carries in the boot such as a broom and traffic cones and she also put the siren on. It was very loud! After that we went to the hall and tried on some pieces of police uniform.  We had so much fun trying on coats, hats, vest and learned about why she carries handcuffs, radio and a baton.  This visit concludes our IDL topic: People who help us.  Thank you PC Cain!

RHS Level 5 Award

We were delighted to receive our RHS Level 5 Award this morning from the RHS Schools Gardening Programme. As well as a certificate, digital badge and a sign for the garden, we received a selection of seeds and £150 of garden vouchers. We will let you know in the coming weeks how the children plan to spend their vouchers to support next season’s gardening.

Well done to all the children involved in Garden Club and to those who helped to keep the polycrub watered over the summer.
