We hope you are enjoying the Blog.  There will be more to come next session as the Blog follows the class through their time at Cross Arthurlie.

We had a great day celebrating our learning all about Australia.

We enjoyed sharing our own Australian artefacts, making cork hats and trying Australian fairy bread (Yum!).

We had great fun learning about the Australian musical instrument, the Didgeridoo. We used different materials to create our own and even got the chance to use a real one!

Today we had a great first bike ability session. We learned how to check our bikes by doing an ‘M’ check had fun taking part in different cycling activities to improve our balance and control.

We have enjoyed taking part in lots of different Mandarin Art activities this week!

One of our activities was learning more about the Chinese dragon and creating our own dragon puppets. Here are some of our finished products! We even used what we have learned in Mandarin to write the colours of our dragons using Chinese characters.

We were very lucky to have Cheryl and Susan from Santander to come into our class to give us some information about banking.

We learned about making sensible money choices and understanding the terms budgeting and saving.

We worked together in groups to select items for our bedrooms while trying to stick to a budget of £150. Some of our bedrooms were empty as the TV cost £100!

Another fun morning of sports! This time gymnastics….have a look at us in action!

Primary 5 have enjoyed learning and playing lots of different Chinese sports.

Here are some photos of us in action!
