Rehearsals went well today! The member of staff from Scottish Opera was very impressed with us! We can’t wait for our performance next week!

Thank you.
Graffiti spelling in P5E
Today P5E did some active spelling to practise our phoneme, ow. Pupils created a spelling ‘Graffiti Wall’ and wrote their focus words using different styles.
Organs in the Body
Miss Ellis wanted to check P5E’s knowledge before investigating the organs in the human body. Pupils were to stick pictures of the organs on another pupil, who had offered to be the model, to show their location in the body. Some of their ideas were spot on and others were…interesting!
Over the next few weeks P5E will be investigating some of the organs in more detail such as learning about their functions.

Hair today. Gone tomorrow.
Cerys from P5i did something many young girls wouldn’t dream of:
Had inches cut off her glowing locks!
Cerys had 9 inches (23cms) chopped off her hair all in aid of charity, The Little Princess Trust, and raised over £400.
Very well done Cerys.
And don’t you look good with your munchy bunchies!

P5i calm before the show
This morning, all children were a touch nervous before their big show, so calming lessons were the order of the day. What better than some active spelling in pairs, creating words then checking each other’s work.
And did this help the pupils? You bet it did!
Once on stage, they performed like true professionals: cool, calm, slick and word perfect. They did themselves, and us all proud.
P5i, I told you, you would be incredible! And you were.
What a show! Well done to all P1-7s and absolutely everyone involved in making the whole day such a success for pupils, parents staff …

P5i Birthday Show
As the big show day approaches, children are getting nervously excited. I was delighted to hear so many have learned their lines and are word perfect. It was a pleasure listening to them during our rehearsal today.
Costumes
Tomorrow (Tuesday 30th) is our one and only dress rehearsal. Could I remind parents that boys should bring (or wear) a shirt and tie and girls a nice top or blouse. As newsreaders, they should be formally dressed so if dads or grandpas could lend boys a tie if they don’t have a school tie, that would be great.
We now look forward to seeing as many parents as possible at the show on Wednesday.
Which way? P5DN
We have started our new maths topic with Mrs Newall. We are learning about compass points, angles and giving commands using directions. Let’s hope we don’t get lost!
