Today we took part in a whole School Teams Call with the author Richard O’Neill. We learned how he plans his stories and publishes his books. He shared lots of the stories that he has written and let us ask lots of questions about becoming an author. 
Primary 7 have been exploring angles and learning how to measure and draw them. Lots of fun activities to consolidate our knowledge and challenge our understanding.
Amazing effort in primary 7 today! Fantastic costumes and most importantly, lots of books and reading!
We had loads of fun leading our houses in World Book Day activities across the school. Well done to Dunlop who won the book treasure hunt and Fowlds who won the WBD Kahoot quiz.
Primary 7 have been learning about Shrove Tuesday and the religious beliefs and traditions behind it.
We discovered that Shrove Tuesday is a Christian celebration that takes place the day before Ash Wednesday, marking the beginning of Lent—a time of reflection and preparation leading up to Easter.
We explored how, traditionally, people would use up rich ingredients like eggs, milk, and sugar before the fasting period began, which is why pancakes became associated with the day.
After learning about its meaning and history, we put our knowledge into practice by making our own delicious pancakes. We really enjoyed eating them too!
We love working with our Primary 1 buddies. This week we have been helping them to log on to the Chromebooks and access their Sumdog Accounts.
We then invited them along to learn some Scottish Dances with us at PE.
