Happy World Book Day! Primary 3 have been doing lots of research on John Fardell as an author, and the engaging books he has published. In particular, we focused on ‘Manfred the Baddie’, ‘The Day Louis got Eaten’ and ‘Jeremiah Jellyfish Flies High’.

Primary 3 had lots of fun using their imaginations to create book boxes based on John Farfell’s books.  Each group had to select a scene out of the above books and recreate it in the box.

We also created monster book marks for our new books we exchanged at the book swap

Primary 3 had a very special piece of rock brought it by one of our pupils. This rock was from the volcanic eruption years and years ago.

Primary 3 have had even more wonderful achievements this week!  Pupils were very pleased and proud of themselves for receiving an achievements certificate within school.  Well done for demonstrating the school values!
