At the end of November P7 took part in different World of Work workshops.
We learnt about cracking different codes in the Cryptography workshop. We had great fun coding and decoding different messages.
We then took part in a games design workshop and we created our own maze game. We were able to control our character to solve the maze and then we were able to play each others games. It was super cool!
P5/6 have been learning about right angles, acute angles and obtuse angles (definitely not angels). We went outside to see what angles we can find around the playground!
Primary 5 and Primary 6 pupils are busy rehearsing for their Christmas performance. This year, we are doing A Matchgirl’s Christmas, which is based in Victorian times.
We have been busy completing an online workshop on Cracking Cryptography through My World of Work. We are doing another workshop tomorrow on Game Design.
Primary 6 has been designing and testing rockets as part of our STEM challenges. We predicted whether they would fly. Our next task is to redesign our rockets based on what we now know.
Primary 6 has been learning to use different pieces of apparatus in Gymnastics with Mr Sharp. We spoke about safety aspects when using larger pieces of equipment.
On Tuesday 14th November P7 attended Dumfries High School to take part in a cluster Health and Wellbeing Day.
The children were split into different groups and got a chance to meet children from different schools across the Dumfries High School cluster primary schools.
Throughout the day P7 took part in different activities including working with the school captains, the sports leaders, the school Police Officer, PC McKerlie and different teachers from Dumfries High School.
Everyone had a great day and this gave them all another chance to experience life at secondary school.
