Before Christmas, we were in groups and each group had to plan and create their own Christmas themed pop up books.  You all worked really well and the books that you produced were excellent.  The infant classes thoroughly enjoyed the books and here are some photos of your day reading to them.

In school all the primary sevens have been joining in with class art work. We are using half a picture and trying to draw the other side. We have been enjoying this art work and learning about World War Two.

These boys and girls are doing some research about WWII.They are doing research about The Dunkirk Landings.They are using the IPods for their research.

These are some WWII artefacts that Amy brought in – they belonged to her gran and great grampa.  The class sat down and had a look at them.  Some of the things include idenity cards, WWII logbook, photographs and naval documents.  Amy told the class about them.  The class thought that is was fascinating for Amy to bring them.

The class completed charcoal symmetry portaits of key WWII figures.  Here are Dylan,Ethan and Taylor with their potraits of Winston Churchill, Neville Chamberlain and Adolf Hitler.

Dean brought in artefacts from the war belonging to his Great Uncle.  It was great to look at real artefacts.

Jake brought in a model of the German battleship “The Bismark”
