We loved participating in the Rights Respecting School day and learning about “Global Goal 4 – Quality Education.” We also got to spend time at the wishing tree to make wishes for the world, cook dishes from around the world, create a Rights mosaic and enjoy learning some traditional Indian dance!                                                          “That was a great day!” -Derry Finnigan

We recently enjoyed a trip to Edinburgh Castle as our social studies topic this term is ‘Knights and Castles.’ Firstly, we got to create our own crowns and then we dressed up as Kings, Queens and Knights and were able to show off our costumes in the Great Hall!                                    “This was my favourite trip.” -Ana Hearns                                                             “I loved Edinburgh Castle and want to go back again” -Addison Coubrough

We enjoyed our trip to the library on Friday where we listened to a story and then got to choose a book to take back to school! Thank you Neilston Library!

Primary 2 have had a very busy week and had a fantastic time celebrating Roald Dahl’s 100th birthday on Tuesday! The children all made an excellent effort to dress as a Roald Dahl character and enjoyed a variety of activities throughout the day!

Our topic for this term is Knights and Castles. We have been exploring the features of castles and thoroughly enjoyed creating our very own medieval castles using chalk and painting techniques!

Primary 2 have worked very hard this week across all areas of the curriculum so we decided to finish the week by decorating our own  gingerbread men!

Primary 2 have had a very busy first week back at school! They were able to show Primary 1 how to complete the daily mile and also showed off their knowledge of ‘tricky words!’  A fantastic first week!
