Scottish Parliament Visit
Mairead McKechnie from the Scottish Parliament visited Primary 5 on Tuesday afternoon. The pupils participated in a workshop and learned a huge amount about the Scottish Parliament and how it all works. Pupils got the opportunity to work in small groups to present their political party and views. There was a democratic vote and the Animal Rights Party won! Also, Primary 5 took part in a debate. The question was, “Should first aid be taught in schools?”. It was a very informative and interesting afternoon. Thank you Mairead!
Halloween Poetry
Pupils had a spooky themed Halloween in class on Wednesday. They used eerie and wicked voices to recite an extract from Macbeth. Also, they produced some fabulous poetry of their own titled, “Witch’s Brew”!
