P1C have been having lots of fun learning through our story of Super Tato! Our classroom has been filled with exciting, themed activities that help us learn across different areas — from making traps for evil pea in the construction area, weighing veggies, threading evil pea,  counting potatoes in maths and creating our own superhero characters.

Also a big thank you to all the parents and carers who came along to our Pop in and Play session. It was so lovely to share our learning with you and show you all the super things we’ve been doing in class.

P1C had an amazing time taking part in the Crookfur Primary Colour Run. We loved running around the school with our buddies, getting covered in lots of bright, colourful powder along the way. There were big smiles, lots of laughter, and so many colourful clothes by the end!

P1C took our measurement learning outdoors to the school woodland! We’ve been learning how to compare length, weight and capacity  using words like longer, shorter, heavier, and lighter.

In the woodland, we searched for natural items like sticks, leaves, trees, and stones. We compared them to things we know — some sticks were longer than our hands, the trees were taller than us and some stones were shorter than our thumbs!

It was a great way to practise using our measurement words while having fun exploring nature. Well done, P1C!

This week in P1C, we had a special visitor – our French puppet Eiffel! We had to use our knowledge of the French language that we have learned so far as Eiffel would only speak to us if we spoke French to him.  We love learning French each week so we had no problem saying hello and telling Eiffel how we felt. Additionally Mrs Grieve and Eiffel, taught us how to sing  the colours of the rainbow in French. We cant wait to see Eiffel again next week!

Primary 1 have been loving taking part in P.E this session. We’ve been focusing on how we can improve our fitness through games and keeping active. Learning through games has been effective to  practise turn taking, understanding the importance of trying our best, and how to handle winning and losing with good sportsmanship. Great job P1C!

In Primary 1C, we have explored our vision, values, and powers at Crookfur, which underpin all that we do at school.

Using this helped us to create our Class Charter and consider what we would like our Class Charter to look like. A class charter is a collaborative agreement between the class and their teacher, outlining a set of shared values, rights and responsibilities to create a positive, happy and respectful learning environment.

We decided we would like to create an Elmer-themed charter, which is currently under construction as we speak!

We also discussed how our school vision, values and powers are supported by our school House System.  Excitingly, in Primary One, we were all assigned a house and given our coloured badges! We can’t wait to make a valuable contribution to our houses and class as we progress through Primary One!

Primary 1C have been busy settling into school life and getting to know their new routines. The children have enjoyed exploring their classroom, learning where everything belongs, and discovering favourite areas to learn and play. It’s been wonderful to see them growing in confidence and beginning their learning journey at school.
