This week P6B completed their mountain landscape pictures. We used crayon and pencil to create our picture. Well done to Sonia who was voted the overall winner  by the class 🙂

P6B have worked so hard over the last 8 weeks to complete all the skills in Bikeability. Everybody showed off their impressive skills during the test today. Well done, P6B!

We all had a great day today participating in lots of events for Sports Day! In the morning we took part in various activities including the speed bounce and beat the goalie. In the afternoon we had the flat races.

Thanks to everybody who came to support us!

Recently in Science we have been learning about electricity and creating our own series and parallel circuits. We had to use teamwork and problem solving skills to complete the task.

This week we have been developing our atlas skills by looking at the features of an atlas and learning how to use the grid referencing system.

We also plotted all of the commonwealth countries on our own map. This was quite tricky as some countries looked very small on our world map!

We had an exciting afternoon on Wednesday when we took part in a STEM workshop. Primary 6B chose the Womery activity. We got to hold the tiger worms and we helped build a compost heap 🙂 Everybody loved learning new,  interesting facts about worms and their environment.

What a great end to Fairtrade fortnight! We all completed different stations about Fairtrade including a board game,  quiz, drama and creating our own poem!

Thank you to Zara and Erin who brought in some Fairtrade snacks for all us to share 🙂

We had a busy week preparing for our assembly but it looks like all of our hard work paid off as it was a roaring success.

Thank you to everybody who came along to see it 🙂

I’m sure you’ll all be singing “Industrial World” all weekend.

Well Done Primary 6!

Primary 6B are in the middle of an exciting drama block where we are following the story of Robert Watson, a young Victorian boy who was banished to Port Arthur. Robert has now been washed up on a beach and had been accepted in to an Aboriginal Australian tribe.

This week we focused on our mime and repetition skills, thinking about how a tribe would act and move. Everybody was very impressed with the performances!

The highlight of this week was our special Burns celebration where we asked our pupil’s grandparents to join us in a Scottish celebration.

Primary 6B sang the song ‘Touch the Sky’ from the movie Brave.

As usual, everybody was blown away by the lovely sound Primary 6 can make. A special well done to our runners, Charlotte and Sam and our MC, Tia.

In keeping with the Scots theme this week, we wrote our own verse to the song Sam the Skull which is based on a mischievous, Glaswegian cat! Some group’s lyrics were very funny and it was interesting to hear about all the adventures Sam gets up to.
