This week’s Student of the Week is Don! Don has shown such a mature attitude to learning and a real desire to be a leader. He is always ready for a challenge! Don said he is proud of the fact that he perseveres! Read what his peers admire in him above. Keep it up, Don!

On Friday we undertook some Literacy Outdoor Learning. We were using synonyms, antonyms and similes to extend our vocabulary. Here are some examples of what we were learning.

By Oliver and Katelynn.

P7 have been enjoying using the Daily Rigour newspaper to collaborate when solving word problems! We are working hard to apply strategies and record our method of working!

P7 have been learning how to handle the Bible with reverence and to locate and anaylse key passages. We looked especially at the passages in which Luke details Jesus being filled with the Holy Spirit. Many of us are looking forward to making our Confirmation this year!

P7 really enjoyed their first virtual assembly with Mr Hutcheson and Mrs Neil. In the assembly we talked about a growth mindset and that we should not give up. We also learned about being responsibile in our playground. We enjoyed that we could discuss  the topics during the assembly and we also enjoyed the song at the end.

Luke is our most recent Student of the Week! Luke has set good standards for himself so far this term and is working hard to bounce back from minor disappointments that we can all sometimes find tricky. Especially when we’ve been off school for so long! Take a look at the thouhgts of his peers. Keep setting high standards, Luke!

Our PE days for this term will be a Monday and a Friday. In line with recommendations, we are going to try to get outside for PE unless the weather is extremely bad. Please try and bring appropriate clothing for this. In the coming weeks we are hopefully going to get some sunny and warm PE days too (fingers crossed!) so just a reminder that plain t-shirts of school colours are preferable.

Thanks! Miss Mac.

Well done to Oliver who has been chosen as our very first ‘Pupil of the Week’ for this session. The other children said that they feel Oliver is an extremely positive student who remains focused and sets a good example of what you can achieve if you persevere. He also contributed beautifully to some of our class discussion this week and posed some very interesting questions that took our learning forward. Keep it up!

What a fantastic start we’ve had to P7! The children have come into class full of energy and ideas! Have a safe weekend everyone! I can’t wait to get started again on Monday!

Miss Mac.
