Our budding racing drivers thought they’d like to have a look at a Grand Prix, to perhaps gain some useful tips. So, the class planned a wee jolly to Abu Dhabi to watch the race, this weekend. Pupils were tasked with pricing flights and a hotel for 2 or 3 nights. They had to ensure they chose flights that allowed them to see the Grand Prix on the Sunday. No budget was given for this task, as the last minute nature of the task meant that well priced flights were not available. It also proved tricky to find a hotel in Abu Dhabi, obviously this is a busy weekend over there!
Switch Off Fortnight!
Primary 5N are organising Switch Off Fortnight which is taking place between 21st November – 4th December. Switch-Off Fortnight is going to be a fantastic opportunity to get the whole school learning about energy and thinking about how we can cut down on the amount of energy we use both at school and at home. We are going to be coming into classes and monitoring how much energy is being saved!
Ocean Measuring
P5n went out in the playground and measured the size of underwater creatures and some of them they were very large. The Great White shark can be up to 10 metres long! We used a trundle wheel and a metre stick to measure the size of them. Then we used chalk to mark the size of the sea creatures. It was fun. 😀

Map Making P5N
We have been working in our co-operative learning groups to make maps. We use maps in Endless Ocean. We have been learning about co-ordinates in maths and turned these into real 3D maps!
