P5 Photography skills

This term, P5 have been improving their photography skills using their iPad cameras. They have looked at how to frame their photo, using the rule of thirds and how different angles can change the perspective of the photo.

Here are the incredible results.


Eco Committe Biodiversity Fact Files

Eco Committee

♻️🌍🦜🐛🐞🦋🐝

The Eco Committee have been busy!

They have been making biodiversity posters. We have spotted many of these birds, insects and animals that share our playground during eco meetings. We wanted to create posters to help everyone learn a bit more about them and encourage everyone to look out for our visitors🦜

They are now installed on the fence at the Urban Jungle, and we hope the children enjoy using them!

Showbie Class Groups

This year we will use Showbie groups to communicate with you at class level.  This will be for class information, reminders, photos and anything that applies to the class, that doesn’t need to be shared with the rest of the school.

To join your class Showbie group, your child will give you a code.

Further help about joining a group can be found via Showbie’s website  – Showbie groups help

The class group will be announcements only, so any help you need or to alert the class teacher to something going on, should be directed to the management team via the school office 0141 637 6798

or by email to the Head Teacher via this form.
