Jack, from P1/2, was the lucky winner of the cuddly giraffe in Primary 4’s raffle. Thank you to everyone who bought a ticket. The money went towards paying for the class’s Zoolab visit.
Primary 5 have just finished taking part in a set of rugby lesson taken by a specialist coach. They really enjoyed these lessons and completed many rugby activities. The children fully participated in these lessons and learned about rugby and how to play.
Primary 5 had a great trip to Stirling Castle to learn more about their topic The Wars of Independence and about castles. The first part of the day was led by a tour guide who took the children to different parts of the castle and then allowed them to look at and touch some of the weapons that would be used in the battles. The second part of the day the class split into three groups and we explored the castle ourselves. We looked at the kitchens, the rooms in the palace and the children got to play many games. All of the children had an excellent day.P
As part of their Five Senses theme, Primary 4 carried out a test to see which combinations of tastes they liked. As you can tell by their facial expressions, some children were not impressed!!!
We would like to say a great big thank you to Greenside Nursery, Newhouse, who donated over 200 plug plants to the school. Every child in the school has planted up their flower into a bigger pot. When the weather improves, and the danger of frost is past, they will be planted our in the garden. Here are some photos of Primary 4 busy gardening!
