A busy day to welcome our Primary 6/7s back into school today. After a holiday check in and catch up with each other, we were straight to work with spelling and continuing developing reading skills with our novel ‘Wonder’. We have also started learning about the Scottish Parliament and linking our learning to the upcoming elections. We are looking forward to finding out the roles within the Parliament and impact this has on our lives.

Happy Easter
Happy Easter to everyone. Thank you once again for your fantastic support this term We ended the term on a high investigating the fantastic ships from our home school learning.( please look out for the photos .)
Enjoy some outdoor time and relaxation with your family. The children have all been working so hard in school and amaze me everyday with their capacity for resilience in the face of very difficult and strange times.
Hope the Easter bunny is hopping around your garden.

Thinking about Easter
A big thank you to Jean a friend of Eve’s gran who very kindly sent us in Palm crosses for Easter. This week we have been talking about the Christian Festival of Easter and all the customs associated with it. The crosses provided a great discussion point when we explored this theme today. The children were so enthusiastic and earnest in their thoughts and their learning.
P1 Easter Poem
Good morning.
Children in Primary 1 are learning an Easter Poem to recite for our virtual Easter Assembly. Please ask your child about the actions which go along with this poem. Have fun practising!

A big thank you for all of those who have sent in their pirate ships. You are such a talented bunch,…….. we have some designers of the future in our mist that is for sure. I am still refining mine so don’t worry you have another week to get them into school for testing!!
The online reading books appear to be going well and I have just had a peek to see who has been doing their reading regularly. I am interested in your thoughts on this and please let me know if you haven’t been able to access. I see they are some pupils who have not yet been using this. Any problems please get in touch and we can sort something out.
Our grid has lots on it so this will take our learning up to Easter break. Once again the wee p 1 are amazing in their resilience and their learning and are working very hard and playing very hard to make up for all the days we could not be together in class. Thank you for your continued support. learning plan22.03.21
