It may have been wet and miserable outside, but there was definitely a lot of fun inside especially when P3b.2 were learning some dance moves from the 80’s. Click on the link to see some cool moves. (Who needs a running man tutorial when there’s Harris!) 😂😂🎶

Well done to the children for their hard work in preparing their homework projects. There were lots of fabulous facts and pictures.  The children were very confident and had fun presenting their projects. Well done!

Thank you to all who returned homework jotters this morning.

We would like to update the jotters next week so please return any homework jotters which are still at home.

Thank you for your continued support!

P3b.2 are enjoying learning about the 80’s! Last Friday, the children were shown a variety of toys from the 80’s and they had a wonderful time playing with the toys.

We had Merlin, Sindy, Sindy’s horse, buggy and sleeping bag, Barbie, a Fisher Price musical toy, a dancing flower, a womble and many more!

The children were very intrigued by the radio cassette player (as you can see in photo 4). We played an old Whitney cassette and had a dance in 80’s style. 😂🎶

Primary 3b.2 were learning about right angles for Numeracy. The children made angle testers and looked for right angles in the atrium.

Ruaraidh met his sister in the atrium and showed her how to use the tester to find right angles.

This Thursday afternoon, Primary 3b will have their Christmas party. If you wish, you may provide your child with a snack and a drink to enjoy at the party.

Thank you!

Christmas Jumper Day

The children may wear a Christmas Jumper to school on Friday.

This is a gentle reminder to return homework jotters to school as we only had a few returned today.

Thank you for your continued support!

 

We are looking for glass jars for one of our Christmas craft activities and would really appreciate donations of glass jars. We are hoping for one jar per child. Please send a clean glass jar with the label removed for next Friday. If you have more at home, we would gladly receive them.
