P7 took part in the Rotary Quiz. It was on Wednesday the 12th of March at Saint Andrews primary school
The schools participating were Saint Andrews, saint francis, Easter Carmuirs ,Comely Park, Bainsford, Carmuirs and the winners were Bantaskin.
Some of the questions were very very very hard but we still did well, we came in 5th place out of 7 schools. After all of it we went to get something to eat it was good, all the other schools had really good general knowledge and the rounds were maths and numeracy, language and literacy , science, expressive arts and pot luck it was really good and we were all very tired after it. Cameron, Blair, Grant and Duncan represented our school.

We went to Netball practice and then we went to a tournament and only 7 of us were allowed to go. The teacher had to pick who was going there was Naomi, Teegan, Cara, Grant, Dylan & Duncan and Kyle who is in primary 4. We were competing against primary schools. We had a lot of games and out of all of the primary schools we won all our games. Easter Carmuirs won and I enjoyed playing all different schools and would like to do it again.

On Wednesday 12th of March P7 did a k-nex challenge. Stem ambassadors came in and told us we had to make David Livingstone’s cottage out of K’Nex. First we had to draw a plan on what we had to make and it had to be similar to our real thing. It also had to have a moving door or stairs to get up into the cottage. It had to be 10mm off the ground and 25cm square. It was a competition to see who did the best within a time limit which was 50minutes. Then we had to make the cottage it was really hard. Everyone in P7 had to get a partner and all took part. Everybody’s was amazing but the people who were the judge had their eye on one. First it was down to 3 – Aiden and callum – Blair and Andrew – Teegan and Caitlin.Then it was down to 2 – Blair and Andrew – Teegan and CaitlinAnd the winner were TEEGAN AND CAITLIN! We got extra points because our picture looked exactly like our drawing!And in a couple of weeks we will be going to represent Easter Carmuirs Primary School in the k-nex challenge at the Falkirk wheel and there will be 30 different schools competing!

P7 have circle time every Thursday and we have circle time rules.1 of our rules are don’t talk when other people are talking, good eye contact, good listening and don’t laugh at other peoples comments. We do a game then a round then a activity and if we have time at the end we do another game. Our games are usually something like elephant and mouse, splat, look up look down, novelty voices and the sun shines on. Our round is something like how we feel when someone wastes time…… or how well we concentrate in class…… and our activity is something like what’s on your mind or memory games and listening skills. We all enjoy circle time and would like to keep on having it.
