Primary 7a 2024 – 2025

On Thursday we made our Snowman biscuits for the Christmas Fayre and had loads of fun!

First we had to decide on the price of our biscuits and we all agreed that we would sell 1 biscuit for 50p and 2 biscuits for 80p – we spoke about how this was a good deal and would help persuade customers to maybe purchase more than one. We also had smaller biscuits which we decided we would sell for 20p.

We dipped the biscuits into the chocolate ourselves and decorated them to look like snowmen. We had lots of fun and even practiced our Nativity songs whilst decorating them.

Here are some pictures of us making our biscuits.

Gabriel, Daniel and Nathan were working together to build ‘Blackpool Tower’. They worked really well together and came up with this wonderful creation! Great teamwork and imagination, boys!

Please see below for information regarding Nativity Costumes. Letters will be issued tomorrow.

Primary 2 are performing a Nativity Play called “Little Star’s Story” and every child will be involved.

Today all of Primary 2 visited the Science Centre to learn more about our science topic ‘Forces’. We visited a workshop where we learned about the forces of push and pull through sorting different toys into their category. We also learned about the force of magnetism, we took part in an experiment and sorted different materials into ‘magnetic’ or ‘non-magnetic’. Everyone participated so well throughout the workshop and showed excellent listening and talking skills. Here are some pictures of us taking part in the workshop.

After the workshop we all had the chance to explore the Science Centre and play with the different materials within it. We had so much fun being able to experiment with the different materials within the Science Centre. We had a fantastic day, all pupils worked so hard as a team and showed amazing listening skills all throughout the day. Miss Cathcart took loads of pictures to show the different things that we were doing, have fun looking through all of our pictures 😀.

This week we added some more materials and items into the classroom for everyone to explore and play with. We now have a home corner and construction corner in the classroom which we are all loving! Here are some pictures to show some of the things we have been doing within Primary 2a.
