We designed our own Scottish kilts by creating tartan. We used paint to create a tartan effect then cut them to look like kilts. We then added some novelty legs!
We were all very proud of our designs!
We have been learning all about Scotland and famous Scots, so today we had our very own Burns Supper! We made, from scratch, Haggis, neeps and tatties. The children did a fantastic job peeling and cutting the vegetables and thoroughly enjoyed their haggis, washed down with a glass of Irn Bru.
P4/5 and P5/6 have been working hard to learn some famous Scottish ceilidh dances. We completed our block of dance this morning by doing a Dashing White Sergeant. There were lots of red faces and sore arms after it. What an ideal way to celebrate our national poet, Robert Burns.
We created our own version of Steven Brown’s ‘highland coos’! We had great fun using a variety of media to create these colourful coos!
P4/5 enjoyed carrying out some experiments today using electric circuits. They found out about conductors and insulators and had to make predictions on a variety of materials. We discovered that metals are good conductors and rubber and plastic are insulators.
A huge thank you and well done to the very generous children of Glenmanor! We made a whopping £676 for children in need today! Thank you for all of your kind and generous donations!
A big well done to the Pupil Council and Enterprise Leadership Group who did a brilliant job selling the toys and organising the whole day!
The pupil council and enterprise committee did a fantastic job getting ready for Children In Need tomorrow!
Each class will get to visit the toy sale throughout the day, prices range from 50p to £2.50. Thank you for all of the generous donations.
Children can wear something spotty or their own clothes tomorrow and pay £1. No football tops please.
Raffle tickets will also be on sale for 50p to win our fantastic Pudsey balloon!
Next Friday, the 18th of November, we will be celebrating Children In Need. Children are able to pay £1 and wear something spotty. We will also be holding a Toy Sale in which all funds raised will go to Children In Need. A huge thank you to the children who have already brought in some old toys, remember the last day to bring them in is the 16th!
As part of our Space topic, P4/5 were learning about the different phases of the moon. We watched a video, carried out some research and even played a game using Oreo biscuits. The boys and girls will be keeping their eyes peeled to see which phase of the moon is in the sky tonight!
Our new Junior Road Safety Officers enjoyed a morning of training to learn all about their exciting new role! Watch this space to see what they’ll be getting up to!
