Food bank donations Christmas 2020

Our school community have been collecting food items and toiletries over the past month. P6/7 sorted the items into sections and we have passed them on to an organisation called Positive Action Housing. Positive Action Housing do fantastic work supporting refugees and migrants to rebuild their lives.  Thank you to the St. Albert’s family for your generous donations. These items will go a long way in helping people this Christmas.

Filming for the Nativity 🎥🎞

Here is a sneak peak of some of our filming for our Nativity Scene.

Our scene told the story of Mary and Jesus travelling to Bethlehem. As we have been learning about different genres of music this term, we decided to tell the story of the journey to Bethlehem through music. We chose songs related to travel, being on a journey and going somewhere.


We travelled in the snow, through space, under the sea, in the woods and in the jungle, all to get to Bethlehem. We used props to enhance our scene and carried our movements for whichever way we wanted to travel. Mary and Joseph wore face masks along the way, used hand sanitiser to stay safe and faced some obstacles when trying to pass through council borders as this is against Covid 19 guidelines.  Oops!

We had fun working with the filmmakers and can’t wait to see the finished product. Watch this space for the link to St Albert’s Nativity Performance 2020.

Just when you thought St Andrew’s day couldn’t get more fun…🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🦄🦌

We were visited today by two gorgeous reindeers! They certainly made us feel a lot more festive and made for a FUN afternoon; visiting reindeers, Scottish Ceilidh dancing and then having some well deserved Irn-Bru and shortbread, yum!

If you’d like to buy a printed copy of your child’s photograph inside a frame with a glossy finish (£3) – please let me know!  📸 The money will go towards the school’s Parent Council.

Creating music on Garage Band 🎼🎷🎻🪕🪘🪗🎺🎹🥁🎸

We’ve been learning how to use the features of the Garage Band App to create our own piece of music. 

We listened to different instruments and decided what instruments would work best in our piece of 1960s music. We considered the rhythm of our music as well as making sure the beat of the music sounded good.
Also, we chose the genre we thought fit best in with our 1960s music sound.

Videos for Fire Safety.

We used our creative digital skills to make videos to inform people how to stay safe during Bonfire Night.

We had to work together in our groups, read and follow the instructions and then decide how we were going to deliver the information via video.

It was fun to act out the instructions and good to use our digital skills to film and edit our clips.
