Being the teacher!
Primary one and two are getting the chance to become the teacher this week and are teaching their literacy group some letter sounds and words. The children who took a turn today had great fun being in charge!
Primary 1/2 and Miss Coyle really appreciated the help from our primary sevens at art time.
P1 finding out who is behind each door!
P1 and P2 pupils were exploring the school and searching for animals on the doors. The P2 pupils modelled good manners by knocking on each door and everyone went in for a visit. Here are some photographs to show you who they found. 
P1 & P7 Buddies
We enjoyed our first Assembly today when Primary Seven pupils were introduced to their Primary One Buddies. Here are some photographs.
Each child was also presented with a pencil case with eraser, sharpener, ruler and two pencils as a result of Write Start and Cllr Mark Kerr determined that every child in Ward 1 started with the same resources, and so were equal. Thank you for this positive initiative.
Primary 1 Transition
It was lovely to welcome the nursery children back into the classroom for their final transition visit. They were concentrating hard to pinch and control their pencil so that they could write their name and draw a face. Thank you to the Primary 1 buddies who helped them. Following their time in the classroom the children got to experience eating their lunch in the dinner hall. They learned how to collect their food, where to sit and how to clear up after themselves. Great work! Well done boys and girls!
Primary 1 Transition – Numeracy
It was lovely to have our nursery children back into the classroom for another visit. Today we were exploring numbers and shapes and were practising using the computer mouse. This was very tricky!
ROOM 2 – FARM VISIT
We visited Cairnfold Farm as part of our topic. We learned lots about how to look after animals, what they eat and what food we get from them. We loved seeing the animals and even got to touch and feed them. It was a great morning. Thank you Mrs Duncan!
HEALTHY SCHOOL WEEK – FOOD TASTING
Room 2 have been tasting a variety of different foods as part of healthy school week. The children tasted a selection of cheeses, wholemeal breads, salad leaves and fruit. The children who were very daring even tried the sardines and loved them! Well done to everyone for taking part and trying new things!
HEALTHY SCHOOL WEEK – BADMINTON
We enjoyed playing badminton today as part of Healthy School Week. We learned how to hold the raquet and hit the shuttlecock. We even tried to pass it over the net. Some children managed to complete 4 consecutive passes! Well done room 2!
