We started our new block of PE today. We are focusing on gymnastics this term. Today we have been discussing the importance of warming up and stretching, being safe and being aware of others.
We learnt the 5 basic shapes – straight, tuck, straddle, pike and star. Everyone did such a fantastic job that we were able to try some more advanced shapes – the dish, arch, front support and back support. Pupils worked with a partner and gave each other feedback on their body positioning to help them improve.
As part of our Scottish fortnight, P3/4 are learning about different Scottish Inventors. Today we learnt about John Logie Baird who invented the first TV.
After learning about his life and creating a timeline of significant events, we worked in groups to create our own mini TVs!
On Friday 20th December, Primary 3/4 are planning to watch ‘Saving Santa’ (rated U) as a class. Pupils are welcome to wear a Christmas jumper and bring in a small blanket and soft toy if they wish. Pupils should bring the same sized snack as they would on a normal day. Please inform the office if you have any issue with the film in question being shown.
We have been exploring the water cycle and created an experiment to see the processes involved. We looked at the different states of water – liquid, water vapour (gas) and solid and discussed the processes of evaporation and condensation.
Fenwick Primary School Christmas Fayre Please see below a reminder/update regarding our Christmas Fayre which is this Friday. We can’t wait to welcome our families along to join in the festivities.
Also, we have been very lucky to secure prizes of vouchers and gifts for our raffle at the Christmas Fayre. Tickets can be bought this Friday 6th December during the Christmas Fayre. If any local businesses or families would still like to donate prizes, these would be more than welcome (please contact the school to do so). We also have house coloured treat hampers along with a selection of other prizes that have been kindly donated by our pupils and their families that will be up for grabs!
