A huge well done to the children that are members of the Barrhead Youth Football Team. They were presented with their participation trophies at the weekend for all of their amazing efforts 🏆.

We are all super proud of your hard work and are so glad you brought these trophies in to share with the class for ‘Show and Tell’ 👏.

P5b have been learning about climate change as part of fair trade fortnight.

We learned about two different climates and how they are important for the growth of different plants.

We made posters with the heading ‘Tropical Rain forest Climate’ and ‘Temperate Climate’ and had to sort which fruits would grow in each kind of climate and identify the different types of weather in each climate.

We worked in teams to do this task :-).

Thank you to our Brownies who wore their uniforms and brought in badges last week for World Thinking Day 🤎💛

P5 and 6 had a visit from author Teresa Breslin today in preparation for World Book Day 📚. The children asked so many insightful questions and we were very lucky to find out about Teresa’s newest book! She even shared her top writing tips for young writers ✍️

P5b were challenged with a loose parts task to create a mini golf course! The children worked in groups to collaborate before we then went around testing each of the courses, all of them were a big success 👏✅

We have conducted the last of our parent interviews and want to say a huge thank you to Mrs Dziobek and Lena for coming into the school to share their stories and be interviewed by the children. P5 have learned so much from this experience 💫.

P5b loved trying some traditional foods and wearing some traditional clothing from a variety of countries today as part of languages week 😊.

We have been working on our facial expressions and body language to portray freeze frames in drama.

 

 

 

 

 

P5 had an amazing time at their Burns Day Ceilidh. Here are some videos of the Scottish Country dancing we have been learning in PE in preparation for the event 😊 but I think everyone’s favourite part was getting the eat the yummy Scottish tiffin that we made in class especially for the occasion 🤤

A huge thank you to Benjamin’s mum and dad for coming in to speak to us today. The children loved being able to ask questions to find out about their experiences of moving to Scotland.
