P7 are visiting the high school as part of our transition. Today is technology and we are drilling, hammering nails and using vices.

This morning, children from Cross Arthurlie Primary are debating whether AI and digital technology are making improvements to our lives. We are arguing that they are improving our lives and the children made some good arguments towards St John’s Primary. The event took place with the Lord Provost Mary Montague leading the event.

Day 2!

Day 1!

The Primary 7’s have been making scribble bots with the Primary 4’s. They have created the Scribble bots from a range of electrical components, a plant pot and some pens.

Primary 7 had a very successful day selling their products for Make £5 Grow. Well done everyone! All of your hard work has paid off.

Primary 7 enjoyed their visit from the Fire Brigade! They loved getting the chance to explore the fire engine, learn about the important work firefighters do, and see some of the amazing equipment up close.

P7 conducted a science experiment to see how fertilisers affects plant growth. We first planned the experiment then planted our plants. We will have to wait until they grow to find out the results!

Happy Summer Primary 6.1! I will miss teaching you, but I know you will all be a brilliant Primary 7 class. Have a fantastic break over the holidays💕

Primary 6 have started working towards their Bikeability Level 2 award.

In the playground we have been demonstrating safety checks on our bikes, clothing and helmets.

We have been developing our skills before we get to the road sessions. We are working on-

• Taking off safely – performing checks and signaling.
• Signaling accurately.
• Stopping safely.
• Left hand turns.
• Right hand turns.
• U-turns.

Primary 6 are having to use a lot of risk-assessing skills and on-the-spot thinking during these sessions. We are looking forward to putting our new skills to use on the road!
