Primary 1 Library Trip

Today Primary 1 went on a trip to the Ewart Library.  In our language work we have been looking at the difference between fiction and non-fiction books so we thought it would be a good idea to go to the library and ask questions about how the library organised the books.  The lady was very impressed with our knowledge  and explained to us that the fiction books are organised in alphabetical order and the non-fiction by topic.

We listened to a great story and then got to choose books to read ourselves.

After the library, we got a lovely treat of juice and cake at the Doonhamer which set us up nicely for our long walk home!

World Book Day Fun!

Today our school looked like a very different place, when children (and adults!) came to school in their pyjamas with their favourite bed time stories.  This was all part of our World Book Day celebrations.  In Primary 1 we welcomed Primary 6 to share our stories.   It was a great opportunity to talk about our favourite stories, settings and characters.  Here are some photos of our shared reading time.

Primary 2 Super Computing Teachers!

Today Primary 1 had a super new set of teachers in the class when Primary 2 children came in to give them a computing lesson!  Primary 2 showed Primary 1 how to log on and then gave them a quick tour of Kodu Game Lab and 2simple 2paint on the laptops.

Primary 1 had a great time and were very grateful to Primary 2 for sharing their knowledge.  Mrs Davidson and Miss Guy learned some new computing skills too.

Thank You Primary 2!

Amazing Speech Makers

On Thursday 26th January, four of our talented pupils from P6 and P7 performed in the Rotary Club Speech Making Competition.  The title for their speech was ‘What Makes a Good Neighbour?’

The  children entertained the audiences and the judges were very impressed with the standard of all the children.

A special congratulations goes to Matthew who will now represent our school in the final in March.

Well done we are very proud of you all!

Primary 1 Celebration of Learning

Yesterday Primary 1 had a very busy day as we had our Celebration of Learning.  We invited our grown ups in to share the learning we have been doing in our Health and Wellbeing topic.

Our activities included a food sorting challenge, creating an eatwell plate, using our senses to describe different foods and making some very yummy fruit kebabs!

It was great fun sharing our learning and we think even the grown ups learned a few new facts about keeping healthy!

Scots Assembly

Today we held a special assembly to celebrate the work we have all been doing connected to the Scots language.  All classes have been busy looking at this and we decided it would be nice to share with everyone.

We had Scottish songs and poems and our Nursery children even gave us a bit of exercise as we all joined in with ‘Heids, shooders, knees and taes!”

Primary 5 have kept their special performance of a Scottish dance for Mr Valentine at tomorrow’s assembly.

It was great fun and a lovely celebration of the country we are all part of.
