Sports Relief Fun
We had fun during our sport relief fun day!
Tallest Freestanding Tower Challenge
Challenge- To build the tallest freestanding tower in 25 minutes using 20 stick of spaghetti, 1 metre of tape and 1 metre of string.
Problem-The tower has to hold a marshmallow at the top.
We used teamwork, communication, co-operation and various problem solving strategies to create the most successful tower.
The winning tower was…….41 cm tall!
Bouncy Egg
Today we went out to bounce eggs as a continuation from our science fair last week.
Pascal’s Triangle
Today we did some problem solving involving the Pascal’s triangle. We used a variety of problem solving strategies to solve the problems:
- Act out the situation
- Look for a pattern
We learned about triangular number, tetrahedron numbers and square based numbers.
We then learned ways to work out many real-life scenarios using the Pascal’s triangle. For example choosing a set number of books or balls from a pile. We were blown away!
Easter Code
P7 are having the best time at their Easter Code trip. Learning so much about the story of Easter.
The adults are loving life too and being totally spoiled with lots of yummy goodies.
Thank you so much for having us!
VE Day Party
We have had the best VE day party today. We took part in a quiz to demonstrate our learning of our WWII topic.
Look out for the winners! 🏆🥇🥈🥉
We also bid farewell to Miss Barrett, who is going off on maternity leave to have her baby. We wish you all the best in the coming weeks and we are looking forward to baby cuddles. 👶 🍼
We will miss you! 🥰

Author Visit
Primary 7 were very fortunate to be visited by a local author called SF Mazhar. She is the author of the Power of Four series and The Elementals.
She gave us an insight on how she was inspired through her Fan Fiction writing online.
Primary 7 were lucky to have a writing workshop with her. We learnt how to structure a ‘Plot Arch’ and ‘Emphasis’ in our writing.
‘We look forward to using this in our writing!’ Ailis.
