We have had a very busy week with our Christmas show. We hope you all enjoyed it as much as we did!

We have been exploring toys in the past and thinking about what our parents and grandparents might have played with! Everyone in P1/2 would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

P2a had a great time performing in their concert.

Alexander said “I thought it was great”.

Murray said, ” I thought the turkey dance was excellent”.

Anna liked the turkey dance because she thought it was funny. Isla said ” I liked the loud parts of the poem” Freya said, “I liked how we all joined in together” and Shea said, “I liked the dance because everyone joined in and we were all laughing.”

We have been learning about symmetry in Maths this week. We have been looking at and learning about nocturnal animals. Elliot the Elf has been up to mischief all week! We all really enjoyed our concert performances and hope you all did too.

 

 

Primary 3a

On Monday P3 had their Christmas party where we danced and played games and even had enough time to stop for some ice cream. Hayden said, “The games were great fun”. Douglas said he really enjoyed the dancing. This week the class also worked in groups to research a nocturnal animal and presented what we found to the rest of the class. On Thursday the class went to the Church Service and then came back to school to enjoy our Christmas lunch. Ruby and Hanna both said the food was yummy!

Very best wishes from everyone in the school to Miss Anderson (P3a Teacher) who is getting married tomorrow. We’re looking forward to saying hello to Mrs Boardman on Monday!

Everyone has been making good progress with their class novel, The Midnight Gang. They are becoming faster with the 3, 4, 5, 6 & 7 times table and this will help them with their work on division. The class has also been writing reports on their visit to Loch Trool and have put pictures on the school website for everyone to see.

On Wednesday the class walked to the church to see the Xmas Tree Festival. Well done to Craig who played ‘We Three Kings’ on the piano for the class.

This week P7 pupils had their last Magic Musix Maker session.  Over the weeks the children have created their own music, which was fantastic – Calvin Harris should be worried!!
