It has been a fun 2 weeks here at Palnackie, although we did say goodbye to two of our P7s, Hlib and Vsevolod. We wish them all the best in their new home and schools.
We have been working on a wide variety of different tasks this week, many relating to our topic of Space. We had a playground litter pick while the weather was nice and then some fun and games in the woods. Grant has visited twice as part of the Feis Rois music offer, and we are busy rehearsing for our upcoming performance.
We also had wider achievements this week for sailing and Star Reader badges. Our pupils of the week were Harris and Joseph for working hard on maths, reading and top tasks!
Today is Hlib and Vsevlod’s last day at Palnackie Primary. We have all loved getting to know them over the last two years. Hlib has said he’s a little bit nervous about moving but he is pleased that there is a big park near his new house.
We all wish Hlib, Vsevlod and his family good luck at their new school.
Palnackie’s P7s have had some transitions to Dalbeattie High School. We have also had some teachers from the high school come and talk to us about going to the high school. Lachlan is looking forward to woodwork, but is a little nervous about maths. Isla is a little worried she might miss the bus, but she can’t wait to meet more new people.
Today Mrs Graham showed P4-7 how to create a blog post for our school website. We learned how to add a post and upload a picture . Look our for future posts from our Digital Leaders!
A great time was had by P6/7 who went to Lockerbie Manor for a residential visit with Auchencairn, Kirkgunzeon and Palnackie. Lots of fun activities including abseiling, campfire building and marshmallows, raft building, blind trail and of course the yummy food!
Thanks to Miss Rooney from Auchencairn for the photos below. More to follow……
P4-7 worked with Mr Dinning last term to create their very own musical tracks using Soundtrap software. They then created their very own radio show to showcase their tunes, and Mr Dinning has uploaded them to Spotify ! You can listen to them here…
P1-4/6 and P1-4 at Auchencairn had a great trip to the Cocoa Bean today. We all made 2 chocolate treats and had a play inside and outside. Very hot, very busy and great fun! Thanks to all the adult helpers who supported on the trip , and to Miss Ross for organising it, we had a great time!
Thanks to Vsevolod and Miss Pringle who have been diligently feeding the birds in our playground each day, we also had another visitor to the bird feeder…. we all loved this furry little friend! Click below to see who appeared…
