On a Friday, selected Primary 6 pupils assist Mrs Montgomery during assemblies. We help setting up the projectors and speakers in preparation for the assembly. We sing songs about our school and my job is to scroll through the lyrics to make sure everyone can see the words and participate. Another role is to control the sound system. This is an important job that requires focus and concentration. As responsible citizens Primary 6 are the class for the job.
Our next assembly is on Friday and will be hosted by Primary 1.

Fully focussed P6 pupils
P6 visited Inverclyde National Training centre in Largs to develop our skills in a range of sports. These are some of the sports we participated in. The first day we participated in orienteering, archery and gymnastics events such as high bars, low bars and the rings. We also developed our trampolining skills and learned various jumps including the seat drop. During our next session we learned the rules and how to play table tennis, badminton, handball and basketball.
This was a great opportunity to learn different sports and use professional equipment that famous athletes train with. We learned from experts and challenged ourselves by trying new activities and pushing ourselves to the limit!
In Wemyss Bay Primary we celebrate Grandparent’s Day each year. Our families visit our school and take part in our co-operative learning activities. This year we made pom-poms developing our technology skills and turned them into spring chicks and Easter bunnies.
We also took our learning outdoors and created bird feeders by measuring our ingredients and using fractions.
We celebrated our learning by singing to our families in the afternoon over tea and coffee. It was a successful day which was enjoyed by all!
Wemyss Bay Primary celebrated Literacy Week last week through a range of contexts and themes. The aim of this post is to enable our Primary 6’s to develop their technology skills and evaluate their learning by leaving a comment on our post below.
Good Luck P6, I look forward to reading about what skills you developed and what you enjoyed about our Literacy learning.
Here are some pictures of our learning in action for you to enjoy…
