Primary 4 have been learning about the human body as part of their science topics this term. They have been learning about bones and how they make up the skeleton.

Whilst learning about Scotland Primary 4 had the opportunity to make some yummy shortbread of their own. They had to learn how to read from a recipe, measure out ingredients and combine them together to make a dough. Thwy worked in groups and all had a turn doing all of the jobs. The dinner ladies very kindly baked the shortbread in the oven and in the afternoon the boys and girls got to sample some of their delicious creations alongside some other traditional Scottish foods.

Primary 4 set up their shop called Reindeer Wonderland on Thursday. They had been very busy making all their products over the past few weeks and were excited by the great turnout they had from customers. They made Christmas cards, magic reindeer dust, edible reindeer noses and reindeer poop (don’t worry, it was just pretend!). To date out profit is exactly £100!! We still have a few items left which will be on sale again on Monday. Thank you so much to all of the customers who bought some of our items. All the profits we made are going to be donated to Yorkhill Hospital. 

Primary 4 have been getting into the Christmas spirit!! We put up our class Christmas tree and have been opening our advent calendar. Our practising for the concert is coming along great and we can’t wait to perform in front of our audience on Monday night at Brannock.   IMG_1511
