On Monday we went to the Baptist Church and took part in the Advent Trail. We walked to the church and we started by playing a game where there were multiple choice questions, we had to go to the correct corner and if we got the answer correct we’d get a marble which counted for one point. There were six different stations, some of them were about Bible stories, one was a video about the birth of Jesus, we had a quiz, drinks and cupcakes and we decorated a tile with a candle, stable or present. It was an awesome trip! We also watched the drama team do a performance of the nativity. They were very good!

Euler has started to learn about algebra, it’s really fun and we have realised that it’s not as hard as we thought it would be.

Pythagoras has started to finish their time topic. They’ve been learning about time durations and using stopwatches.

We have been working hard this week with the nursery as we are going to Greenlaw care home next week to sing songs to them and recite T’was the Night Before Christmas.

We found out that the Braehead Clan are coming to visit us before the holidays during our assembly. We are really looking forward to meeting them. The choir also sang at assembly in front of the whole school and they were wonderful!

In writing we wrote a letter to Olaf to try and persuade him that he didn’t want to find out what summer would be like! We tried to use persuasive language.

We have been doing some topical science this week; we looked into whether dolphins and whales have accents and how they communicate with each other. It was very interesting.  

Zamin won the road safety competition and we are all very proud of him!
