Tartan Day

During Tartan Day in school we sang a song called The World must be coming to an end, with lots of actions and some people were role playing.

We made props and Scottish flags – Saltires – for the role playing in our song. We also worked in pairs to design our own tartans and wrote acrostic poems about Scotland. We have a great display which parents can see during Find Out More Day in February.

We also took part in some food handling activities. We made shortbread and oatcakes and also made our own butter from cream. They tasted delicious and we were even able to share our shortbread with our families!

Harvest and Sukkot Assembly

Primary 2 led the Harvest and Sukkot assembly. Everyone brought in lots of food which we are going to share with Trust Housing and a Local Food bank. We built a Sukkah and decorated it.

Our assembly went very well on Friday 7th October. We all remembered our words and spoke clearly, Mike and Alan came along and played the guitar and drums. We even got all our mums,  dads and grans singing and doing the actions!

We filmed our performance use the link to see our film.

 

Visitor

Primary 2 had a visit from Mike Gargrieve, the minister at Thornliebank Church. He talked to us about harvest. Haris and Fatima took part in an activity which taught us about helping each other. Mike brought his guitar and we all sang a song. When Mike heard we were having a Harvest Assembly he said he could help us with our songs.102_0470 102_0471

 

Mike came back to our class with Alan to help us practise for our assembly songs. They play the guitar and drums very well. It helped our singing to be really good. Ahmed had a go with Mike’s guitar.
