World Book Day – 3 March

World Book Day was on Thursday 3 March. We had a lovely time when boys and girls from Miss Macdonald’s Primary 7 class came to read to us.

We heard a variety of stories such as Thumbelina, Rapunzel, Under the Skin and Jack and The Beanstalk. We also listened to poems from the Ring of Words Anthology. Mark and Elliot also SANG a book to us – Miss McDonald had a class!

Thank you to Jamie and Chloe, Elliot and Mark, Charlie, Victoria and Heather, Archie and Lauren, Ethan, Callum, and Cameron. We really appreciated you doing this for us!

Later in the afternoon, we had to take part in a scavenger hunt where we had to look for certain characters, animals and items, such as a happy ending, a mystery, a moral lesson which can be learned etc.,  in books and say where we found them.

It was an enjoyable day!

Christmas Jumper Day

Today, 11 December, our school held a Christmas Jumper Day in aid of Save the Children. Last week, we had a visit from a Save the Children volunteer (Mrs Strang) who told us all about the work that the charity does for children and their families all over the world.

She told us that a £1 donation is enough to buy two small sachets of Plumpy Nut, which is a high protein food that can save the life of a child.

Today, we all wore our Christmas jumpers and made a donation to the charity. We had fun while helping save other children around the world.
