Annanhill P2HM 2025-2026

Today we had two visitors. Jim from the Royal Bank of Scotland came in to do a workshop with us. We were pretending to set up our own smoothie shop. We had to count how much money we were given to set up, budget, buy what we needed and then cost it all out so that we made a profit. Lots of discussions and we found it wasn’t as easy as it sounds!

We also had Lorna, who used to be a careers coach but now writes children’s story books come in a speak to us as well as reading her new book, The Cheese Wedge of Doom. She is waiting for it to be published so that we can buy it in the shops. Continue reading “World of Work Week”

Today we came to school with happy feet! It was fun trying to take these pictures!

Freya was at a cheerleading competition in Edinburgh at the weekend. Her team came second. Well done Freya. Here she is rocking her trophy and a

It’s walk to school week. Day 1. Walk  to school wearing a hat and/or sunglasses. Don’t we look cool?

Yesterday we learned all about our sense of touch. We were blindfolded and had to guess what was hiding under the towels on the trays. Some were very easy to guess, others less so!

Last week we went to the Central Evangelical Church to have the Easter Story told to us by the Messengers. The puppets told all about the last few weeks of Jesus’ life.

Sloane’s mum, Erin, joined us today to read a favourite story in their house – Tiddler, the Storytelling Fish, by Julia Donaldson.  We loved it.
thank you to all the grown ups who offered to come in and read to us.

Evie’s dad, Graeme, came in to read us a story on the approach to World Book Day. He brought her little sister, Isla with him.  He read us a story called Which Bum’s Mum’s? We all found it very funny. There seems to be a theme here in the dads’ choices of books! 😂

In Science we were learning all about our eyes and our sense of sight. We were able to talk about the different parts of our eyes and labelled them on a diagram.
We made  lava lamps and watched them work when we put a fizzy tablet into the mixture.  It was fun!
Then we did a magic milk experiment and watched the food colouring mix to give a marble effect.

We couldn’t have done all of this without our sense of sight.

This week we have had some of our parents in class to read us stories in preparation for World Book Day next week. Caleb’s dad read us The Dinosaur that Pooped a Pirate and Aidan’s dad read Dinosaurs Love Underpants!  We all sat beautifully while they read to us.
