P2/3 Winter Topic
As part of our Winter topic we have been looking at the weather and how to stay warm. We have had great fun designing winter woollies to keep us warm. Here is a selection of our finished work so far.
P2 and Remembrance Day 2015
Over the past few days, the boys and girls have been learning a bit about Remembrance Day.
“I know the fighting happened in Flanders Field” – David Young
“I learned that we wear a poppy because they grew in the place where a war was” – Stephanie Gibb
“There were bombs and it was Germany we were fighting in the first war” – Andrew Armour
They created a fantastic display to showcase all their hard work.
Primary 2 also created fantastic acrostic poems using the word “REMEMBER” as a stimulus.
The children made personal message poppies to thank the soldiers and servicemen who gave up their lives for their country.
P5 Dry Brush Lesson
P5 learnt a new technique in art today called dry brushing. Dry brushing is when you don’t use a wet paint brush or lots of paint. We used red, orange, yellow, blue and white paint to make a beautiful picture. The picture was of an autumn sunset that Miss Gillespie took out of her window. We copied the picture that Miss Gillespie took and this will be an art project for the next few weeks.

Art From The Garden
Our garden club and primary 1a worked together to make some very interesting pictures. We collected natural items from our school gardens including colourful leaves, twigs and fruit . These items were then used to inspire pupils to create their own works of art!
