Primary 1 enjoyed their visit to Busby Library yesterday to receive their Bookbug bags. We read all three of the stories, One Button Benny, I am Bat and Eric Makes a Splash, and we will be voting for our favourite in a couple of weeks.

As part of Book Week Scotland, we will also be taking part in a competition to design a book cover – check back here next week to see some of our fabulous entries!

Primary 1 had a great time this week learning about Japan as part of International Week.

We had a visit from Skye’s mum, who showed us how to make origami cups and later in the week we made origami monster bookmarks in class. We also recreated Hokusai’s famous painting, The Wave, and tried our hand at Japanese calligraphy.

Miss Paisey and Miss Wight were really impressed by the homework submissions, lots of children did fantastic research and pictures. Well done!

Have a look at some of the spooky activities we have being doing this week!

We loved writing our own potions, decorating ‘pumpkins’ and making pumpkin lanterns.

P1a and P1b had our assembly on Wednesday 31st October. We worked so hard learning our lines and our songs, and we loved being able to share our learning with our families. We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did!
