Today our P5/6, P6 and P7 classes were fortunate enough to take part in a music workshop with Callum and Lucy from the Benedetti Foundation.
We took part in learning about different beats and rhythms and listening carefully to patterns of sounds which were made. We had to identify the different instruments which were used and some of us even had turns at leading the rest of the classes. Everyone loved it and participated extremely well!
We had lots of fun celebrating World Book Day this year, from dressing up as book characters or in our comfy pjs ready for a bedtime story, taking part in activities in class, joining live lessons and visiting the Book Fair.
Thank you for your support in purchasing from our Book Fair. Your purchases will contribute to funds towards our school which will enable us to buy more books for our school and class libraries.
Our P7 helpers, school choir members and class winners from our school Poetry Competition will soon be lettered to invite them to perform at our next annual Burns Family Night on Thursday 26th February 6-8pm. (Please see the poster above for more information)
Tickets to attend must be purchased prior to the event. Performers do not require a ticket to attend.
We would encourage family and friends to purchase a ticket to come along and show their support. Be quick so as not to miss out!
