In St Luke’s Cluster we nurture every child’s unique God given talents to enable them to flourish in a climate of high expectations, innovation and creativity.
The pupils have been busy today preparing for Halloween! We made decorations for th classroom and helped to make Miss Jeffrey and Miss McGinlay’s costumes for the parade!
We hope to see you all there at 13:30 on Wednesday; we can’t wait to see all of the costumes!
As part of our science focus on the human body we made our own sets of lungs today! These models include the trachea splitting off into the bronchi and then filling up the lungs. If you hold the bottom of the lungs you can also use your hands as the diaphragm in order to contract and exhale the air from the lungs.
We have had a busy week in Primary 3!
In literacy we have been learning about visualisation – picturing in our heads what we are reading. We have been doing this through drawing and today we had fun acting out a passage in order to help us to think about what might happen next in the story. The pupils loved getting to move around the room and picture the story that way! This visualisation helped us to think of more descriptive words that we could use when continuing the spooky story:
In maths we have been working hard as usual as well as practicing what we have learned once we are finished our tasks. One pupil wanted to show off all of the times tables he wrote down:
We have also been talking about climate change today due to the global protests that are happening, and we talked about ways that we could help. The pupils suggested that they could encourage adults at the shop to buy loose fruit in order to cut down on packaging, re-use plastic bottles, walk more when possible, and many other great suggestions!
Have a a lovely weekend everyone! 🙂
With one week to go before Primary 3 return to school, we would encourage you to take some time to label your children’s clothes, shoes, lunch boxes and school bags.

The school fair is on the 8th June. P2 will be making something to sell at this as part of a class enterprise. If you have any ideas for this and would be willing to help, please let Miss Mckay know.
Cities
On Thursday we will be researching a city of our own choice. It can be any city in the world. It can be a city they are interested in for any reason such as family links, a place they have visited or a place they have heard of through their own interests.
Ideas so far have included London, Madrid, Moscow and Wellington.
