Christmas Kindness Mail all ready to be sent in the post 🌟🌟🌟.

Today the children created their own 3D pop up Christmas/Winter cards to share with friends and family.

This afternoon, P7.26 using oil pastels, paint and glitter to create their own ‘Grinch Pinch’ inspired artwork. 🌟🌟

The house captains met today to sort through the huge amount of kindness mail received for our Christmas House Challenge. Unfortunately, due to the COVID restrictions, these will be posted this year. The captains will collect the remainder of submissions tomorrow morning, before sending to their chosen care homes.

We spent this afternoon creating our very own Christmas tree decorations using twigs. The children had the opportunity to use the glue guns for the first time, which they really enjoyed! Other activities included creating paper chains, snowflakes and decorating the class Christmas tree 🎄.

Primary 7.26 have concluded their Campaigners Mearns Masters by sending persuasive formal letters to Boris Johnston, Nicola Sturgeon, Jackson Carlaw and CBBC Newsround. The children want to see their fantastic ideas from our Designers pathway come to life. This includes solar panel cycle lanes, compulsory grass roofs on all new developments, solar filtration systems, sustainable sports stadiums and much, much more!

The children of P7.26 have been working hard to design and build their very own WWII models. These include 3D printer sirens, Lego tanks, tin foil wrapped boats, paper mache helmets and lots, lots more. We enjoyed showcasing these models to various classes within the school, before evaluating these.
