Guide Dog Visit
Primary Two received a visit from Caroline and Dale from the Guide Dog Association Scotland. Caroline explained to the children how expensive it is to train a guide dog and how much time and effort is needed.
The children took part in a number of activities to highlight how difficult life would if they could not see.
We had to put tooth paste on a tooth brush. It was hard.- Yisrael
We matched gloves and socks. I used my sense of touch to help me.- Becca
I used a stick to help me feel where I was going when I was walking. – Jamin
Dale was the cutest dog ever! – Nina
It was an excellent experience that the children all enjoyed and would like to raise as much money as they can for the charity.
Chanukah 13.12.17
Today was the second day of Chanukah. This morning we light the first Chanukah candle in class. Our Menorah is shaped like Nessie the Loch Ness Monster. Ness in Ivrit means a miracle.
This afternoon we went to Shul. At Shul we said prayers, lit the Menorah> We then got a doughnut, a drink and a present. It was very fun!
Squares- 6/12/17
Today in Numeracy we started to learn all about money. We know all the differetn coins and notes and can order them. We used coins to make different totals. We then used different coins to make the same total.
It was a bit tricky at first but now I can do it. Alice
We made the totals in two different ways! Becca

Kabbalat Shabbat
Primary Two had their very special Kabbalat Shabbat this morning.
We all got to sit on the table together and say our prayers before the wine and challah. We got to sing our new dinosaur song to Primary 3, Primary 1, Nursery and our parents. They all loved it!
Some of us got to read out the prayers we had written in class with Mrs Rosenberg.
Some of us told the grown ups and boys and girls about our charity, the Guide Dog Association.
It was great!
Welly boot Garden
Primary Two from Calderwood Lodge and St Clares were working hard to make a beautiful welly boot garden.We donated welly boots and filled them with soil and bulbs so make our playground garden very pretty.
We also pulled out lots of weeds from the flower beds.
We enjoyed working with St Clares!
We hope that in the spring time our garden will be very colourful!
Sukkot
Today we went in the Succah because it is Sukkot. The Succah has decorations and fruit hanging from the roof. In the Succah we said brachot and eat a yummy biscuit. 
The Lighthouse Keepers Lunch
This week we have been reading The Lighthouse Keepers Lunch story and doing lots of fun activities!
Mr Gringling has a very unhealthy lunch so we planned a healthy lunch for him. We had sandwiches, fruit and water.
Mr Gringling is very Industrious! This means he works very hard in all weather. We became fashion designers this week and designed clothes for Mr Gringling when it is sunny, rainy and cold.
Mr Gringling looks out at sea through his telescope. We used binoculars to look at the view from our new school and draw the landscape. We saw lots of fields and farm animals like cows and sheep. We loved looking through the binocualrs!
