Primary 4b had a great morning making bird feeders – an experience from their ‘Make Your Mark’ passport. The boys and girls had a go at using the ‘make do’ resources to cut and slice through the cardboard and the end results were fantastic! Tomorrow afternoon we will hang the bird feeders outside and take part in the RSPB birdwatch campaign.
Primary 4b had a busy first week back at school after the holidays! They enjoyed learning across the curriculum, particularly exploring new activities in DLL, starting a new class topic and revising Measure and Area in Maths.
It was a really exciting day in Primary 4b to mark the start of the Christmas Holidays. We started the morning with a fun STEM activity where each group had to design a maze for a furry snowball. After break the class split into teams to compete in a Christmas themed quiz, team Snowman were the winners.
We finished off the day with a fun afternoon of party games and dancing. A great start to the holidays indeed!

The children have been learning about the Christmas Story and in particular, the account of the Magi. They have been discussing that, just as the Magi journeyed together to Bethlehem, so during Advent we are all journeying towards Christmas. In order to demonstrate their understanding of the events, the children will be creating their very own stop motion films, which will focus on the journey The Magi took to meet the Baby Jesus.
In preparation for filming, they have been working hard scripting and preparing backdrops for each scene. Keep your eyes peeled as the completed videos will be posted soon!
Last week everyone took part in presenting their treat presentations to the class. Everyone presented with a loud, clear voice and confidently answered any questions asked. I was blown away with the ideas shared during the presentations and found it very hard to chose a winning team!
The children in Primary 4b have been learning about the purpose of information reports. Everyone could identify the main parts of a report and carried out some research in preparation for creating their own report this week!
World Children’s Day is UNICEF’s global day of action for children. An important part of World Children’s Day is children and young people learning about their rights and raising their voices on issues that affect them.
In Primary 4b we had a discussion about the importance of all children having an awareness of their rights and how powerful a child’s voice can be if there is an injustice or rights are not being upheld.
Anti-Bullying Week took place from the 13th – 17th November 2023 and focused on the theme of ‘Listen Up! (Respect our Rights)’ – because bullying is never acceptable.
Primary 4 spent time discussing what different forms of bullying may look like and who they can reach out to if they need support. Everyone enjoyed taking part in drama activities to explore the topic further.
Primary 4 have been working hard to prepare for their class learning assembly which will take place on the 8th December. In preparation for the assembly, the children have been learning about symbols of Advent. Last week they learned about the Advent Wreath and had a chance to make their own.
