Today primary 5 used balloons to paint. We made a drawing of an autum tree silhouette . So we cut the drawing out and stuck them on to a piece of black card. We then we blew up different coloured balloons. We then we dabbed them into yellow, orange and red paint. Once we finished we took the tree we had drawn off the peice of black card and they all looked fantastic.

A huge well done and congratulations to all children who took park in the 50th Anniversary Concert! Your singing and dancing was fabulous! Well done to Primary 5 who worked hard with Primary 6 to showcase songs from the 70’s. Here are some photos of the performers before and during the concert.
Looking fabulous for our final performance!
Rehearsals for our school show are well under way! Some amazing costumes and our very own John Travolta!!
P2/3 have been very busy practising for their concert next week, but they have also been busy designing posters for a Road Safety Competition. Here they are proudly displaying their hard work.
Please send your child’s concert costume to school in a labelled plastic bag as soon as possible.
If you are unsure of what your child has to wear click on the link below.
Senior choir members should wear their costume for all performances and not their school uniform.
We have been researching different bands and artists of the 1960’s in our co-operative groups. We have been taking notes under sub-headings and created information discs (in the style of LP’s) to share with the class.
The children really enjoyed researching the ‘Pop Art’ style invented by the famous American artist Andy Warhol. Then they looked at iconic computer games characters of the 1990’s, such as Mario Brothers and Sonic the Hedgehog. Finally, they used the unique features of pop art and applied those to their designs, using brightly coloured felt pens and coloured pencils. The final results were amazing!
Primary six threw themselves into our cooking challenge this week and made ‘Patatas Bravas’. We used the potatoes and onions that we grew in our own school gardens! End result got the thumbs up from our official taster, Mrs Martin.
Pupils have been busy at home creating excellent posters displaying their knowledge of various aspects of the 1970s. Pupils have worked hard and made some fantastic posters.
Great moves today. This dance is really shaping up for the concert!
