Fun building numbers
In P3W we have been looking at all the ways we can represent a number with a special timed challenge!
Nelson’s Tower Trip
We enjoyed our trip to visit Nelson’s Tower in September.
We are learning….
Primary 4FL are learning our tables. We are using doubles to help us eg 4x table is double our 2x table. Sumdog also has tables challenges for us to work on and we have our passwords so we can use this in school or at home.
Remembrance Day
P2C, P4FL and P45C all marked Remembrance Day by doing a 2 minute silence at 11am this morning. We had the radio on so that we could hear Big Ben chiming in London. We made poppies to decorate the stair and laid wreaths we had made as well.
Signs of Autumn
We went outside to look for signs of Autumn and used what we found to write Actostic poems.
The Space Bake Off
It’s been a busy week at home for P6/7M as many of them have chosen to complete the baking task set for their homework. The task was to bake some Space related cookies, biscuits or cakes.
As you can see we’ve had a variety of delights from constellation cookies, moon brownies, nebula biscuits, asteroids to planet cupcakes as well as ones with hidden surprises and popping candy! All were shared amongst the class and each one has been delicious 🙂
Mrs McRitchie is looking forward to receiving copies of the recipes so she can have a go making some at home!
Swim, Swim, Swim
Well done to the 12 swimmers who took part in the Moray Schools Swim Trials today – Ailsa Allan, Ashley Anderson, Lauren Anderson, Josh Angell, Bruce Evans, Rachel Gallacher, Cameron Jones, Erin McIntosh, Roslyn McRitchie. Leigh Morrison, Neve Morrison and Ellie Sutcliffe. All pupils were commended by the parent helpers on both their swimming performance and their behaviour and attidue. They were a credit to the school and we are proud of them all.
Each pupil participated in 2 different events and lots of PB times were achieved. Bruce won Silver Medals in his 50m Fly and 50m Freestyle races and Roslyn won a Gold Medal in her 50m Breast and Silver Medal in her 50m Fly. Congratulations to them both 🙂
The girls relay team of Erin, Lauren, Leigh and Roslyn swam strongly and vame home with the Gold Medal – fantastic achievement girls!
Many thanks to the parents who supported them at this event.
