What a great day! We all loved it despite some of the tired faces 😴🤣

Outdoor Classroom Day – May 8th 2025

We had a brilliant day being outdoors for nearly the whole day!

We loved working in teams to make dens and then we created an amazing bubble mixture and tried to blow BIG bubbles!

We made our own bug hotels to provide shelter, comfort and a safe place for a variety of insects.  We made sure to use recycled materials to make them ECO friendly.

We learned where the best place would be to put our bug hotel to ensure to attract a variety of animals.

In the afternoon we used the muddy mover area to learn how to work as a team to build an assault course using the skills of balancing to travel across a range of equipment. We learned  to take risks and assess dangers.

We also planted sunflowers.

 

 

We had a great day in the sunshine!

Well done to everyone for taking part with lots of enthusiasm!

WE ARE GOING TO HAVE SOME OF OUR POEMS PUBLISHED!

We entered a competition which was organised by Young Writers. We had to create a monster and then write an acrostic poem about it.  Our poems were fantastic so they were all entered into the competition.  We received an email which said …

We’ve got some fantastic news for you, we’d love to publish your pupils in “Monster Acrostics – Fangtastic Poems”! We’ve posted a package out to you today, which contains awesome bookmarks & certificates to be handed out to your pupils, letters for parents and a letter for you that explains everything, including the next steps. We can’t wait to publish your pupils and I hope they’re excited to receive the news!

AMAZING! Great work p3/2! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Monster Acrostics Poetry Competition

 

Big Walk and Wheel 2025

Today we had fun in the playground on our bikes and scooters. We took part in activities organised by the Junior Road Safety team. We enjoyed trying the slow race, slalom and the obstacle course.  We have made posters in class to try to encourage people to switch off their engines and travel to school in a healthier way.

 

 

Today we had a special treat when the firefighters from Barrhead Fire Station came to visit us at school.

We got to sit in the cab of the fire engine, learn about lots of life saving equipment and best of all, spray some water!

Thank you to the firefighting team for a fun session 🚒

 

 

 

   

 

 

 

 

 

 

   

 

 

RSPB Fundraiser 2025

WOW! What a brilliant day we had!

You all worked so hard to raise money for the charity which has helped us learn so much about birds and protecting nature.

You are all  superstars! ⭐️

We raised £160 which is a massive total and all the money has been sent to Mike at the RSPB.  He is very impressed with  our achievements.

 

 

World Book Day 2025

We listened to a story called Handa’s Surprise.

We then tried all the fruit from Handa’s basket.

The pineapple was our favourite but most of us disliked the avocado!

We also visited the travelling Book Fair and made some very lengthy wish lists!  I hope your book dreams come true P3/2! 😉

 

 

Well done to our amazing K!

You were fantastic and we are all very proud of you 🤩⭐️

There is a video clip on our Google Classroom.

 

Languages Week Scotland

We have been thinking about different languages from around the world.

We made a display of items which are made in different countries and then learned how to say hello in the language of that country.  Great work from everyone!

BSL – I can sing a Rainbow
You were all brilliant at learning this lovely song using sign language.
Well done! 🌈

If the link doesn’t work, you can watch on your Google Classroom.

We have also been learning a new song in French which we will sing at our school assembly on Friday and we have been learning Mandarin with Ms Xu.  So far we have learned numbers, tones and greetings.  We also learned lots of new facts about Chinese New Year.
