We have had a busy week this week. We have been working on the kit car portfolio and design of the car. We have also been practising our new song and dance for GLEE. We have also been working with our buddies to design Easter bonnets for our Easter service.

On Tuesday we had our first transition visit to Madras and took part in rugby, Scottish Country Dancing and a STEM activity.

In Maths we have been working on Algebra and Percentages. In French we have been learning the alphabet, comparing France to Scotland and learning about masculine and feminine words.

Maths: In maths this week we did RRR which was about percentage decimals

and fractions we also did a maths assessment for Madras. People also came in

on Monday from other school to do private talks.

Art: This week we have been doing a lot of stuff about the kit car from making

it to producing designs. When everyone had made their idea for the kit car,

they would introduce it and tell what it is about then after that we would vote.

Morag’s and Murryn’s kit car design won so those are going to be our designs.

PE: This week we started our new dance for Glee, and the song is called I lived

by one republic. We already know about a half of the dance with the girls help.

We have also been practicing our spring service which we will be doing with

our buddies.

Trial: Next week someone from the court will be coming

and showing us what happens at court during a trial. We will be acting out

parts from trial like sheriff, witnesses, prosecutors and more.

Newport got talent: For a few weeks now, the whole school has been doing

different skills and preforming them to judges who rated them, after that the

judges would pick 17 people from all classes and they would be in the final

preforming to the entire school.

Novel: This week we finally finished our novel Skilleg and after finishing it we

had to do a test about what happened in the book. After that we learnt about

the next book we were reading which is going to be the wrong shoe and every

P7 that is going to madras is going to be reading this.
