Primary 4 – Update
We are looking for cardboard boxes to make Roman shields. If you have any left over packaging at home then please send it in.
Primary 4 have earned their whole class reward of a “comfy” day. On Friday 9th June, pupils may wear pyjamas, onesies or play clothes and bring slippers for indoors if they wish.
Thank you.
Kelpies Trip
Another busy week in Primary 4.
We had a fantastic trip out to the Kelpies on Thursday, and would like to thank our drivers Bobby & Davie.
Today we took part in some fabulous royal celebrations ahead of the King’s Coronation this weekend. We hope you like our crowns that we’ve created.
We look forward to seeing parents and carers at our open afternoon next Friday between 1.30pm and 2.30pm.
Have a lovely weekend,

Update from P4
We have had such a busy couple of weeks since our return for Term 4! We have been making artwork and decorations for the upcoming Coronation celebrations and are looking forward to ‘Kings and Queens day’ this Friday.
We have been out and about in the community which has been great. You may have seen us out on the big litter pick or down at the cattle show. This week we are so excited to be going all the way to the Kelpies in Falkirk!
Here are a few pictures from our music session with Mrs Hill & the last of our Scottish Myths & Legends lessons.

March fun in Primary 4
This term we have enjoyed Rugby sessions with Cumnock Rugby club. We have also had lots of fun learning about the myths and legends from Scotland, we even created our own mythical creature and wrote our own super stories about them. We are enjoying having music sessions with Mrs Hill on a Friday morning and these will continue next term.
Today we voted on our new topic which is going to be the Romans! We took part in an Easter Egg hunt with a maths twist! We had to answer the questions before we could crack the code!
Well done to all of Primary 4 for working so hard this term, we hope all parents and carers were pleased after parents night 🙂
Have a lovely spring break and I look forward to seeing you all back in April.

Scottish myths and legends with Primary 4
Pupils have been throughly enjoying their new topic. We have learned all about Nessie, the Kelpies and enjoyed the story of ‘The Wee Bannock”.
We are debating wether or not Nessie is real, what do you think?
We have been very lucky to have “Harris’s Mum” come in and show us how to make 3D models of the Kelpies using a really cool substance called Polymorph.
Harris and Flynn made a battle of the Bannocks at the creative area, and you can also see Eilidh working hard researching facts about our mythical creatures.
Have a super February break everyone!

P4 Musicianship Sessions
Primary 4 pupils will be starting music sessions with Mrs Hill after the February break. The sessions will focus on rhythm skills to help prepare pupils for learning a string instrument when they move into Primary 5.
Scots activities & more from P4
We have been enjoying gymnastics in P.E, so far we have been working on our rolls and jumps. We can’t wait to get all the equipment out!
We have been learning about the Loch Ness Monster as part of our new topic. Do you think she is real? We can’t decide! We created these pictures of “Lady McNessie”, inspired by Scottish artist Steven Brown.
Happy New Year
Welcome back and a happy new year!
Mrs Bell and I, would like to thank all of Primary 4 and their parents & carers for our generous Christmas gifts. We hope everyone had a lovely break.
The children have been hard at work this week and have settled back into routines (there may have been some tired faces come Friday!).
Our Scots poem is “A Dug, A Dug” by Bill Keys and pupils have taken these home today to start learning.
Have a lovely weekend!
Sharing the Learning with P4 & P1/2
Thursday 8th December
Primary 4 took the opportunity to teach Primary 1/2 all about James and the Giant Peach. They chose their favourite activities from their recent topic, and in groups, delivered these as ‘mini lessons’ for the younger pupils.
We learned how to mix the perfect peach colour, create a rainbow, demonstrate how rain is made and took part in the ‘Stop that peach!’ challenge.
We ended the day watching the movie. A great time was had by all! Click on the SWAY below to see more.

More from Primary 4
This week in Primary 4 we have been busy learning how to grow a rainbow during our STEM session linked to our class novel. We have also been learning about the Haka and have used some of the movements to create our own routines. Of course, we have managed to squeeze in plenty of literacy and numeracy whilst rehearsing for the nativity too! To see more click on the link below 🙂
Primary 4 – Update
This week primary 4 have been investigating weather and learning about how rain is formed. We made cloud jars and studied how the water droplets made the clouds too heavy which produced raindrops.
We have also been learning about Remembrance day; we made Playdoh poppies at our funky fingers station and in art created Pointillism poppies.
In Numeracy we have been learning about doubles and near doubles.
Another busy week in P4
Take a look …………..
Primary 4 Update
Primary 4 have enjoyed investigating the different parts of a peach today. We looked at, and felt, the skin, flesh and pit before having a little taste of course!
