Energy Agency Visitor to P6/7

On Tuesday 18th November, P6/7 were lucky enough to welcome Stephen Brindley from the Energy Agency. We had a very busy morning learning more about ways in which we can help to conserve energy. We watched a powerpoint presentation, video clip, took part in online voting and played the Energy Game. Kerri, Tommy, Ben, Wilson, Cameron McKie and Callum were members of the victorious team – well done to them! Big thanks to Stephen for coming along and working with us. We all learnt a lot!

Remembrance Day

Glenluce Nursery and Primary pupils walked to the Glenluce War Memorial today in order to observe the 11 o’clock two minute silence. Mr Ferguson explained to everyone the significance of 11th November and, in particular, this year as being the centenary of the outbreak of World War 1.

Fraser and Ruth are coming into P6/7 Class every Tuesday afternoon to teach us about traditional Scottish music and playing the tin whistle. Today was our 2nd lesson and we are making great progress! At the end of our 8wk block, we will be bringing our tin whistles home too. Mrs Ferguson and Miss McGeoch are learning alongside us. Mrs Ferguson has taken a video recording of our early attempts so we can compare this with our end results. Great music-making fun!
