On Friday afternoon, Primary 4 took part in the RSPB Bird Watch which is the UK’s biggest citizen science wildlife survey. By taking part, the children were helping the RSPB understand how our garden birds are doing right now in the UK. Primary 4 have successfully ticked off another signature learning experience from their ‘Make Your Mark’ passport. Well done everyone!
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.
Over the last few weeks we have been learning all about the components of an electrical circuit and today we made our own.
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!
Primary 4b have completed filming their stop motion animations about the journey the Three Wise Men took to meet Jesus.

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.
