School Improvement Pupil Committe Pupil Application 2022-23
Today 2 pupils led the learning and taught the class the basic BSL alphabet.
We learned how to say all the letters of the alphabet and then reinforced our learning with some Bingo activities .
A great morning of fun learning !
Today we were lucky enough to have some sports leaders from Loudoun Academy working with us to celebrate active children month. They led games and activities in the playground.
Fresh air, exercise and fun together , a great Friday feeling !
Maths: Shape
Angles
As part of their focus on shape, Primary 5/6 have started learning about angles. They started off by going on a right angle hunt around the classroom followed by a hunt for acute and obtuse angles. After this they discussed the unit of measure used when considering angles (degrees) and explored the use of a protractor to measure the size of angles.
Today we were taught french by a talented pupil in p5/6 who showed the class how to use Duolingo.
She showed confidence and demonstrated the importance of ambition within our class. We had a great lesson and Mrs Ross learned lots of new french vocabulary too.
Secret Student Class Treat
Primary 5/6 have been working hard as a team in class to demonstrate our school values of kindness, honesty, respect and ambition.
We have worked together and have 20 class points which means we have earned a class treat. We have chosen to watch a film and enjoy some popcorn and drink in the afternoon of Friday 7th October.
Mrs Ross will provide some popcorn and juice but children can bring a small snack in with them if they choose to.
P5/6 have also chosen to bring a small cuddly toy with them too. Please just wear school uniform as we will follow our usual timetable in the morning.
We are choosing our film in the morning. Please let the school know in advance if you would prefer your child not to watch a PG certificate.
Thank you
Mrs Ross

Wellbeing Champion Training
Primary 6 and 7 have been taking part in the East Ayrshire Pupil Wellbeing Champion Training. This week they completed session 2 of 4. During this session they were encouraged to consider different strategies they could use to positively impact upon the younger pupils wellbeing especially if the younger pupils are feeling upset or angry.
At the end of this training all pupils will be trained and prepared to become Fenwick Primary School’s Wellbeing Bees as part of their Primary 7 responsibilities to promote wellbeing across our school.
After an excellent warm up led by two of our superstars, we enjoyed learning some new basketball skills today.
We practised dribbling and shooting. We displayed great sportsmanship and encouraged and supported each other demonstrating respect on the basketball court.
A total of 30 amazing baskets scored between us all !
