Hello and welcome back after a  long October break!

We have had a fun and interesting week in primary 6. Let’s start by telling you about our special visitor today…Mr Tompkins, an MSP (and Leo’s dad!) who came to speak to us and P6 St. Clare’s about his job and politics. We have been learning about the Scottish Parliament in Social Sciences and today we got the opportunity to tell Mr Tomkins about what we have learnt so far and also ask him lots of questions. We all really enjoyed learning more about what an MSP does and why it’s important that we get involved with politics. We really appreciate Mr Tompkins taking time to talk to us and help us learn more about the Scottish Parliament.

We also took part the the Shabbat UK Challah Bake as a school yesterday which was great fun. We platted our Challah, sung songs and danced with the Rabbis. It was also a chance for us to reflect and make our Shabbat pledges which we read out at Kabbalat Shabbat.
