It has been a very active week in P7 with the Sports Championships getting well underway. P6 and 7 have been competing in the long jump, high jump, over arm throw, basketball shoot and sprint events. Everyone made a great effort for the heats; congratulations to all who have made it through to the finals! We can’t wait to find out who our champions are for 2023.

In numeracy we have been calculating percentages using calculators. Our STATWARS project also links to maths and data handling. We have been collecting data about our energy usage and using a spreadsheet to calculate CO2 emissions, we have discovered that most of our CO2 emissions at home come from our boilers.  As well as this, we have conducted a survey about climate change across the classes and collated the results, next week we will convert the results into percentages.

Science, literacy and art have all been involved in learning about the structure of Earth. Everyone has done a super job of following instructions, making notes and creating a lift the flap model of Earth and what’s below the surface.

Personal research  projects are due in next week but they can be handed in earlier if they’re finished.
