As you know, Primary 7 are hosting the Scottish Showcase on Friday 30th January from 9.15 – 10.40am.
We have been very busy rehearsing for this morning and we are excited to perform at it.
As we are sitting at the top table we have decided to dress in a white shirt/polo shirt. We have plenty spare polo shirts and white shirts in class for anyone who does not have one. We will wear our usual uniform on the bottom half – unless you have a tartan skirt/ trousers that you would like to wear.
We have tartan sashes and ties in class that we will put on in the morning.
As we have a dress rehearsal on Thursday afternoon this week, it would be helpful to wear your Showcase Outfit on this day too.
We have really enjoyed learning about the traditions of a Burns Supper. We put our heads together to write a Toasts to our Lassies and a reply from the to the laddies. We look forward to reading these to our audience at our Burns Supper on Friday 30th January.
Welcome back Primary 7 to a very exciting and busy term for us.
Firstly, a great big thank you for my very generous gift card everyone! It was a lovely surprise to come back to in January and I will look forward to a shopping trip to Silverburn this month!
I have added some photos from December to see lots of the fun activities that took place over the festive period!
This month we look forward to hosting the Burns Supper and Scottish Showcase and we are busy preparing for that day, learning poems and songs written by Robert Burns.
We are lucky to have coaches from Kilmarnock Rugby Club coming to deliver 4 x PE sessions throughout November.
Today Adam taught us how to throw the ball from our “pocket”. We learned lots of games to practise this skill. We all thoroughly enjoyed this first session and we can’t wait for next Friday.
We have used the cut willow in our garden to try our hands at willow weaving. We have been practising this skill over the last two afternoons and are very proud of the willow wreaths that we have created to sell at the Christmas Fayre. Here is a sneak preview of what we will be selling after we add some Christmas touches.
On Thursday we entered 2Primary 7 teams in the East Ayrshire Schools Cross Country Competition. We were very proud of our super ambitious runners! They ran 1400m with determination and speed. Well done to them all! There were some busy washing machines after this muddy event!
