Disco – Thursday 14th May
A “Shorts and Shades” disco was held at the school on Thursday evening and there were some very bright and colourful outfits, as well as some trendy shades! The children had a great time dancing the night away!
Eco Garden
The children across the whole school are working in the Eco Garden and using it as a place for outdoor learning. Each class have been assigned their very own flower bed to take care of. The children in Primary 3/4 have visited the garden for an art activity and the have also planted some flowers. The flowers will stay in their class room, where the children can look after them and water them until the warmer weather. Then they will transfer the flowers from their pots into a flower bed in the garden.
Primary 3/4 School Trip to Stirling Castle
Primary 3/4 have been learning all about castles and were able to visit Stirling Castle to learn more. This was the perfect opportunity to combine both the castle and the circus themes that they have explored this year. The first part of the day was set by the children as they led the way around the castle exploring the grounds and getting involved in some interactive learning. After lunch, they had a guided tour by their very own court jester who also taught them some circus skills.
Judo
Primary 3/4 pupils have had the opportunity to take part in learning judo. They have had three sessions, and are already perfecting their moves. The children really enjoyed the experience.
School Show – “Daniel, a hard act to swallow!”
Here are some photographs of the actors, dancers and narrators from out recent school show “Daniel – a hard act to swallow!” Well done to everyone who took part. The show was a great success. The singers in the choir were amazing too!
P3/4 Road Safety Day
Friday 27th March 2015 was Road Safety Day. The children in Primary 3/4 watched a video about Kerr, a young boy who was hit by a car and broke his leg. They discussed this scenario and the different emotions and difficulties around this situation. The children then took turns pretending to be Kerr in a drama activity. The rest of the class interviewed them and asked them about how they were feeling.
In another activity, the children created a story board about a road accident. They wrote about it and drew pictures to go along with the narrative.
They were also able to play a Road Safety game on the smart board. The game is similar to Snake and Ladders but the difference is, they had to answer questions about road safety correctly to be able to move around the board.
