This week in Primary 7, when we weren’t out of school galavanting, we were doing the following fun tasks;

• Working with Ben from the Village Storytelling on our first session of Gender Stereotypes. We played categories, we discussed the different assumptions people make about males and females (in fiction too), and we heard an amazing traditional story about a Scottish man who goes on an adventure in a boat. It was called ‘The Man with no story’.
• We hosted a FABULOUS class assembly on ‘Homelessness’. I can’t get ‘Happier’ by Bastille and Marshmallow out of my head now ha! Zeenat received some extra special news from Alice (Social Bite Representative). She is going to the BIG SLEEP OUT on Saturday evening to present her story to thousands of audience members. We could not be MORE proud of her – a brave, resilient girl!
• We went to the Tramway on Tuesday morning to see a production of ‘A Christmas Carol’ by Charles Dickens. It was amazing, and the set and props were out of this world! Little bit scary at times…for Miss Cohen mostly!
• We hosted our school’s Christmas Fayre on Friday morning where we sold deluxe hot chocolates on our Polar Express train, and homemade gingerbread and shortbread cookies. It was a lot of fun!

Have a lovely weekend, and enjoy the winter sunshine who will be making a welcoming appearance!
