We were lucky enough to have Louise Renicks from Team GB come in and visit us on Friday. She lead a fitness lesson and then told us all about her career and training. We got to see her Commonwealth Gold medal.

Congratulations to Harley who won “Parents Player of the Year” with his football team.

We have been practising for the Picture Book Competition. We can’t wait to read to the Primary 1s!

In ICT we have been using Textease to create posters about the first moon landing.

Today in IDL we looked at Vincent Van Gogh’s “Starry Night”. We experimented with brush techniques and paint patterns to create our own versions.

We have been working with partners to develop our racket skills. We have been working on badminton skills already and now we have moved on to tennis. Watch out Andy Murray!

We try to walk at least three miles each week. Since August we have walked over 60 miles! That’s the same distance as from Dundee to Edinburgh!

As part of our IDL we designed and made our own rockets as part of our homework. Here are some of the super examples! There’s even some in Russian

We have been looking at non-fiction texts in Literacy and Language, with our learning partners we designed websites for Stage and Sports Schools.

We are taking part in the Picture Book Competition where we will each read four different picture books to the primary 1s. Along with other schools in Dundee we will vote for our favourite and the winner will be announced at a special event in the Whitehall Theatre.
