As part of our topic on ancient Egypt, we created models of the Nile with examples of the farming which took place there. We added water to our models so we could see how flooding helped the farmers. We learned about the three seasons of Egyptian farming- Akhet, Peret and Shemu.

After our amazing performance of our Nativity this week, we got the chance to make Santa stockings today. We had to sew it together which was a challenge for us (and Mr Murray and Miss Quirk) then we decorated them as a snowman, Santa or Rudolph.

We are so proud of Ava Bett who was away competing in the indoor Brussels International Tournament for Taekwondo. Her team came in second. We’ll done Ava!

We helped Mr Murray decorate the class Christmas tree today because there weren’t many decoration so it. We also made paper chains and put up some other Christmas decorations.

Well it’s that time of year again and we are working hard on our Nativity. Today we spent some time reading the true story and worked with a partner on a sequencing activity.

Primary 3 started their work on subtraction today by revising subtraction from 20.

Have a look at our fantastic bluebells which we made with art straws and garden wire.

Primary 3 spent time planting bluebells as part of their local area topic. We look forward to seeing them grow in spring. While we were outside we repaired the Wigloo.

We used our ICT time today to paint poppy pictures for Remembrance Day.

The whole school had a fantastic trip to the Showcase Cinema this morning to see The Lion King. It was part of film week and everyone had a great time. We would like to thank Mrs Glover and Mrs Baxter who came with our class to keep us all safe. Thank you also to Mrs Brown, Mrs Leggatt, our office staff and all parent helpers.
