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!
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.

Primary 5 have been working very hard during their first week back. They have been learning to convert times between 12 hour time and 24 hour time. We are now experts at reading and writing analogue and digital time! We have also been working in partners assessing each other’s learning. Well done P5 on being successful learners. Keep up the hard work!
Primary 4/5 and 5 have been enjoying homework club. They have found it useful using iPads and getting their homework complete at the start of the week!
Primary 5 had a fun first day back as they used the school’s new IZAK 9 resource for maths. The class were split into teams and had to solve challenging tasks working as a group. Primary 5 enjoyed the challenge and we can’t wait to use IZAK 9 more in class!
This term primary 5 will be given a homework grid working in 5 week blocks. Below the homework grid is attached for week beginning 19th October 2015 until the end of the week beginning 16th November 2015. Please can I ask for homework to still be handed in on a Friday.
Thank you,
Miss Gillespie.
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.
P4/5, P5 and P6 had great fun this morning on a trip to our local library. We had a special trip to see the author Robert Harris. He read us some of his fantastic books and even got some of us acting out scenes from them.
We were then able to buy one of his books and get it signed by the man himself! Some of us are really looking forward to reading his books and the release of his new book next April!
Primary 5 and Primary 6 received a card today from the Bay City Roller’s lead singer Nobby Clark. He sent his best wishes to the two classes as well as sending a photograph with Miss Gillespie’s dad! Let’s hope we can do him proud on Thursday!
