On Friday 19th December, Primary 3 have requested to watch ‘Home Alone’ in class. This is a PG film. If you have an objection to the class watching this movie, please get in touch with the school.
Pupils in P3 can bring in a blanket or small soft toy tomorrow but no additional snacks please.
A reminder also that school will finish at 2.30pm.
I hope that all Fenwick families have a safe and happy Christmas! See you in the New Year.

We enjoyed learning about ‘Frosty the Snowman’ this afternoon. P3 have been introduced to what sheet music looks like and learned how the tune moves up and down the stave. We then made our own snowman themed sheet music art and used chalk to decorate the background with snowflakes.
Primary 3 have been loving ‘The Night I Met Father Christmas’ by Ben Miller. The book has allowed us to have some very good discussions about a range of important themes as we learn how Father Christmas became Father Christmas. We looked closely at the beginning of chapter 10 and picked out the important descriptive words that help us visualise the scene. Afterwards, we drew our own visualisations of the scene and presented them to the rest of the class. It’s amazing how we can all picture things a bit differently!
Primary 3 were over the moon to find Elfie hiding in the cupboard along with some Christmas decorations. We think Elfie was trying to tell us to get decorating for Santa! One kind pupil decided to leave her Elphaba ‘Elphie’ in school over the weekend to keep Elfie company. We wonder what the Elfie and Elphie will get up to.
Primary 3 have been learning how to use multiple features of Word documents, including how to highlight text and change fonts, text sizes and colours. We are becoming more confident with finding the different keys on the keyboard. We put all of these skills to good use and practised our spelling words.
Primary 3 will be making their lanterns for ‘Light Up Fenwick’ this coming week. Please send your child in with a prepared plastic bottle by Tuesday.
Thank you!
As we approach Christmas, we have been hard at work creating our ‘Christmas Through the Window‘ artwork. See if you can spot the finished pieces around the village in the near future! Well done, P3!
Primary 3 took part in a variety of Children in Need activities to help highlight the important work that Children in Need does each year to ensure that children in the UK get their rights met.
Our ‘Challenge 25’ activity was to run 25 laps of the gym hall each!
We took part in the Blooket competition in our House teams. Dunlop were the P3 winners! This helped us learn about exactly which rights Children in Need can help with.
We also took part in a Pudsey bear Scavenger Hunt and played ‘Bear Pong’!
Thank you to the Rights Respecting Schools committee for organising such a fun and educational day!
Primary 3 enjoyed playing ‘The Traitors’ on Halloween. We also had a great time at the Halloween party.
