Hello Primay 5T, 5K and 5i!

It is hard to believe that we are now in our final days of Primary 5…
Details about your final class chat will be posted by your teachers at this week on Teams, so keep your eyes peeled.

Below I have attached the video links from your P6 teachers as part of our virtual bump up day. Primary 5i, Mr McClure is new and he will be making a video today – we will post it as soon as we have it. If you have any questions please just ask, and we will do our best to answer them.

You really are the ‘Fabulous Fives’ and it has been an absolute pleasure teaching you all this year. We wish you well in Primary 6 and we can’t wait to see you around the school when we return! We hope you have a fantastic summer when it comes.  Take care 😊

Virtual Whole School Assembly

Leave a comment

Hi all,

Our first virtual whole school assembly will be taking place tomorrow – Thursday 7th May 2020 – at 10am. It is expected to last between 20-25 minutes and further details will be posted on the school blog.

There will be singing, dancing and more for all of our Onthank families to enjoy! Your families will also be more than welcome to join us online.

As part of the assembly, we have asked for pupils/parents to send us any recordings of dancing, or pictures of the challenges set. 

Fingers crossed all of the technology works and we hope to see you there!

Castle Clues

1 Comment

Primary 5T had a great time today going around the school searching for clues. Each one led to a new room where there was information about different rooms inside a castle. For example, the dining hall told the children about the Great Hall in a castle where banquets would take place. They were successful in finding them all, well done!

Also, we joined up with Primary 5K this afternoon to learn how to setup our target pages and create posts which include media. Watch out over the coming weeks as the children continue to explore Glow blogs and post with Mrs McPhail!

P5i Children in Need fundraising

Pupils had a super day doing various activities connected with Pudsey and to health and well being.  Thank you all for your generous donations.

The day started off well with a school  fitness session and ended  with a gymnastic marathon circuit for P.E., so children should be well exercised – and worn out.

 

Poetry winners

We also watched recording of pupils reciting their Owl and the Pussycat poem and two winners were chosen for their super actions and recital.  Many congratulations to Luke and Ellie.

Pupils are now looking forward to learning our next poem! Go P5i.

 

P5E PowerPoint stories update

Leave a comment

P5E have now completed the first draft of their PowerPoint stories which will hopefully entertain their p2 buddies.

Each group showed and read their story to our class, who then gave feedback-what was good and notes for improvement. Pupils will now edit their stories before showing the final version to p2.

Miss Ellis was very impressed with pupils’ ICT skills, especially how they were able transition from slide to slide using interesting animations.

P5E Relaxing and working in the lovely sunshine!

P5E enjoyed working in the sunshine this morning. As part of digital learning week pupils are working together to create PowerPoint stories to show their P2 buddies.

Today’s session was all about planning our stories using storyboards. Some pupils have started from scratch while others are retelling a fairytale using their own words and images. Our classroom was so warm we took our work outdoors!
