Fun Friday in P3A
On Friday this week the children had a wonderful visit to the community library. All the children were able to choose a book to take back to school with them. A big thank you to our adult helpers who came along with us.
On Friday afternoon we had some very special visitors. Fiona and her wonderful service dog Barnum, came to talk to the children about Canine Partners, the charity who trains assistance dogs like Barnum. Fiona showed and talked about all the special things Barnum does to help her everyday. The children loved seeing Barnum do all his different jobs, and they loved their stickers too!
Another great week in P3a
Following our evaluation of last weeks DYW activities, the children realised how important collaboration and teamwork is. To support this in P.E we completed a range of activities which require communication and team work. The children particularly loved the ball pass game and working with blindfolds.
In Numeracy and Maths the children are learning to recognise different fractions in shapes and have been learning to read analogue clocks. We have been supporting our learning with practical and active lessons which the pupils engage really well with.
We had such a great week and as always the children worked very hard. Have a lovely long weekend P3a!

P3a – Developing The Young Workforce Week
This week this children have been learning all about the wider world of work. We were very lucky to have professionals come to visit and talk about their careers. The children loved learning about being a scientist, and fire fighter. We ended our week by discussing all the skills the children have and used improvisation and role play to create their own mock interviews for their dream jobs! What a fabulous week!
Wildside Nature Workshop – P3
Primary 3 had a wonderful week. The children loved learning about Scottish Wildlife with Donald from Wildside Nature. Ask us about some of the fascinating artefacts we were looking at.
One of our aims on our Eco Action plan is to reduce, reuse and recycle. As part of this the Eco committee have set a challenge over the Easter break for pupils to upcycle some of their rubbish into something useful. We look forward to seeing what you can make and have fun with this challenge. Good luck!
