Une vie de chat!
FAIRTRADE CHALLENGE – Well done to all of those people who have submitted answers in the Fairtrade Challenge below. No one has managed to find the common theme I’m looking for between the three places. Have a go – we’ll talk about it tomorrow!
Today we went to watch ‘Une vie det chat’ (A Cat in Paris); it was an extremely enjoyable film. It was great to hear the French phrases and watch along with the English subtitles.
Watch the trailer below:

FAIRTRADE CHALLENGE – Well done to all of those people who have submitted answers in the Fairtrade Challenge below. No one has managed to find the common theme I’m looking for between the three places. Have a go – we’ll talk about it on Wednesday!
Just as we thought that Mother Nature had blessed us with Spring, down came the snow… A reminder that tomorrow we are walking to Eden Court for ‘A Cat in Paris’. It is important that you have sensible walking shoes, in case the pavements are slippy. A jacket is also a must – the minus temperatures require suitable clothing.
The Loch Insh meeting is tonight at 7pm in the hall. If you are unable to attend the meeting, we will send the information pack home with your child tomorrow.
Good news – Thanks to Mr Nairn, we will be able to provide each pupil from P6/7 with a copy of Rock Challenge. This will be given out at the end of term for you to enjoy over the Easter break.
We’ll see any primary 7s who are coming to the meeting in a few hours, and everyone else – we’ll see you in the morning.

Fairtrade Friday – CHALLENGE BELOW!
REMINDER: P7 Loch Insh Meeting – Monday 11th March @ 7pm. Pupils are welcome to attend.
The aliteration of Fairtrade Friday is a phrase which we all like to hear after such a busy week. The P7s, who were not swimming this afternoon, used our Fairtrade packaging to create an information board for display in the corridor. P6/7 managed to collect 48 pieces of Fairtrade packaging; an excellent result. Many of these were hot chocoalte containers – a clear favourite amongst the class.
This weekend’s challenge:
Go back to the Fairtrade post from Monday. Look at the three countries which we studied. Apart from them being Fairtrade exporting countries – your task is to find the common theme between these three places. Post it on the blog. We’ll let you know who our Fairtade Fanatics are on Monday.
Have a great weekend & to all the Mums – Have a lovely Mother’s Day on Sunday.

Fairtrade Fortnight – Monday 25th February to Sunday 10th March – are two weeks in which we can put an emphasis on Fairtrade within the classroom and the school, with a hope to it being part of our daily routine.

Today we learnt about Fairtrade Fortnight through three different ways.
1. Watching the French video: Mange te banane – this told us about the story of Javier
