Over the last few weeks we have been working hard on developing skills in possession games like netball.. We have been learning how to hold the ball correctly, how to pass it and how to defend our goal. Then we used these skills when participating in several netball competitions with our peers.

Our German Visitor
Frau Kusian works at the Goethe Instituit in Glasgow promoting German language and culture and she came to visit P4 and P4/5 today.
We practised the German we had already learned at school and she also taught us some new words. This picture shows her asking us about the German names for pet animals and wild animals and the sounds they make in German. We are learning about these animals with our German puppets Felix and Franzi.
We sang to her in German and told her how we were feeling.
We had a great time and she said that she did too.
Auf Wiedersehen. Bis bald.
Parent Council Halloween Disco Fun
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!
Primary 4 Research 1990s
The children have been working extremely hard on researching important events and significant people of the 1990’s. Then they used their information to create group posters about the World Cup, Princess Diana, the Channel Tunnel, the Internet and Hurricane Andrew. They have also brought in a variety of toys, games, DVD’s and videos of that era.
Primary 4 – 1990’s Topic – Expressive Arts
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!
