In P5/6, we created Newsround style dramas in groups based on our UNCRC rights! We had a lot of fun and enjoyed watching each others’ performances and guessing the right that they chose. We all especially enjoyed Connor, Seth and Eli’s performance, we think they will be film stars one day.
As part of skills academy for term 1 our topic in primary 6/7 was the solar system. The class were set a challenge in groups to create a real life model of the solar system using items which were found in the classroom. The groups were challenged to think about the size of planet, the colour of planet and the order in which they appear in the solar system.
As a class we worked together to talk about our Rights and Responsibilities. We looked at the UNRC articles and discussed what we felt was most important in our classroom.
Have a look at our Class Charter to see what we will be focusing on…

Primary 3 have been learning about 3D shapes and their properties. Recently, they were given a challenge to create 3D shapes using straws and playdough. They had to think about the number of edges, faces and vertices of each shape. Look at the results!
Primary 3/4 have been learning more about the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.
We discussed Articles 7 and 8 (Right to a name and identity) and we took part in learning singing games and French games involving our names, wrote our own wee book introducing ourselves, made our names using different materials and created our Superhero Selfie artwork.
We have been carrying out lots of different activities as part of settling into our new class. One of these activities involved going outdoors and creating a stone representation of our family.
Briony from Sustrans came in to carry out a puncture repair activity. We were given the chance to locate and repair a puncture on a bike tyre.
We enjoyed this and hopefully we will be able to use these skills in the future.
