Our P6/7’s have had a brilliant opportunity leading Kidtastic Time. They have blown our socks off with how well they have organised activities for the younger pupils. They have enjoyed coding, art activities, obstacle courses and bug hunting. After learning about wax resist in Expressive Arts, Heidi and Louise decided to teach the other class how to do wax resist art.
The talk of our class this week is that our chairs have went on strike.


Our chairs were fed up of crumbs, swinging and trumping they refused to work. In their letter, they wanted an apology.
The class were tasked with writing a persuasive letter in return to win their chairs back. Most decided that they did not need their chairs and their letter stated they were finding other ways to work.

So far only two pupils have persuaded their chairs to come back. Next week, they will have the opportunity to win them back. Stay tuned for any updates…
