We celebrated World Book Day by dressing up.  Primary 7 read stories to Primary 2 and enjoyed time in the class library.

The library has had a make over.  Some new items include, bean bags, pillows and books trays so the children can easily access the books they enjoy.  Some children in the class gave up their lunch break this week to organise the books into different genres .

Primary 7 have been learning about how to run a successful business.  They created their own business and sold pancakes to the school.  They made an impressive profit.  Well done Primary 7.

Primary 7 visited the Lord Provost at East Renfrewshire Council offices today to argue whether or not school uniform should be banned.  What do you think?

We used our technology skills to create out Christmas decorations!
