It has been a busy few weeks counting down to Christmas. We have been rehearsing lots in preparation for our Advent Assembly and successfully performed our show in front some of the classes in the school and then again in front of our parents. From the huge round of applause that we got, we think our audience enjoyed our performance.

In class, we have been enjoying writing and receiving letters from our pen pals at Miss Stephen’s previous school in Edinburgh. The children in P4 at Abbeyhill Primary have become our pen pals and we are loving finding out about our new friends and having a real life purpose to our writing. We look forward to writing to them again in the New Year.

We have been finishing up our ‘Where in the World Shall we Go?’ topic by looking at India and have enjoyed learning about Hindu God and Goddesses, learning about the world famous Taj Mahal (and doing some amazing art work of the Taj Mahal) and finding out about Indian cuisine. We even got to sample some homemade Chapatis made by a Mum of the class. They were delicious.

We are looking forward to having a well earned holiday but we are also looking forward to finding out what 2020 will bring for us.

Happy Christmas!
