The boy and girls loved getting to visit the library last week. The library committee helped support the P1’s to select a story and read it. The children especially loved getting to sit in the staff room to read their stories.
P5’s treat afternoon!
Before Christmas the primary 5 classes ran their enterprise. With the money they made they decided they wanted a ‘pizza party’ treat afternoon. We waited for the nicer weather and What a beautiful day we had for it today! Outdoor play and Dominoes pizza ….and lots of fun had by all! 
We still have money leftover and have decided to buy some more outdoor play equipment after the holidays.
Easter
This week P2b are learning through play with an Easter theme. The boys and girls identified and grouped odd and even numbers in an egg hunt. Practiced their fine motor skills by building origami eaters bunnies and drew symmetrical pictures.
Digital committee
The digital committee ran a competition about ‘safe use apps’ where children could choose their favourite app to recommend or design their own. The entries were all fantastic and the digital committee had a very hard job choosing the winners. There was one winner for each class p4-7 and our overall winner! Well done everyone!
Last Week in P3a
After the success and hard work of our showcase we had a more relaxed time last week doing a little bit of revision at the start of the week. We wrote a setting description of Andy’s room from Toy Story and worked on our different multiplication and division strategies. Later on in the week we were looking at number patterns and worked on our fitness in PE. In our topic work we learned about the Viking Longships and made information posters.
They children also had fun working together to see how big a tower they could build with the straws. They managed to get it to reach the roof!
Compass Points
P2b had fun working with P5 pupils learning how to use a compass and follow directions using directional language. P2b were able to find North South East and West using their compass.

We’re going on a bear hunt
Last week p1b listened to the story We’re going on a bear hunt.
We went on our very own bear hunt around the school grounds. The children loved retelling the story in real life. This inspired our writing and art for the week. Check out our fantastic story maps.

P1b
A fantastic few weeks learning about changes and livings things as part of our topic we have been looking at how things change around us with each season.
We looked at the water cycle and how rain is created as part of this. We are learning words like evaporation, condensation and precipitation. We also explored living things and enjoyed learning about the life cycle of the butterfly and frogs.
P4a Update
It has been a busy and exciting couple of weeks in P4a! In writing, we have been creating engaging non-chronological reports, developing our research and writing skills. We have been focused on using connectives and different openers to make our writing even more interesting.
In maths, we’ve been exploring 2D and 3D shapes while continuing our work on fractions.
During PE, we’ve been lucky to have a football coach helping us develop new skills. As part of our Viking topic, we have advertised Viking longhouses and learned about the Battle of Largs. We even wrote diary entries from the perspective of Scots preparing for battle.
We have also had the chance to visit our lovely library and choose some new books to enjoy!

Singing our hearts out!
An end to another busy week in Primary 1a.
This week we have been revising number, writing our predictions for the story of Tadpole’s Promise and learning about living things.
We have been learning about the Sikh festival of Vaisakhi.
In amongst all of our hard work, we have created some spectacular art which helped us to label the parts of a plant.
We also recorded The Glasgow Song which we have been practising with the help of our fabulous music tutor. This song has been written to celebrate the 850th anniversary of the city.
