Today our group began the task of creating our display to let others know what we do during leadership time. We made display lettering from recycled rubbish and began painting the background of our design. Stay tuned to see how it turns out!

Information evening for Primary 7 parents. Wednesday 23rd November 6.45pm til 8.00pm.
P7 Diplomatic Debate
P7 have been learning about the European Union and how new laws are passed. Today we had a mock debate about creating a new EU law for age-restricted books. We heard some excellent arguments both for and against. I think we have a few politicians in the making!
Focus on Food / Fairtrade Group
Today was our first meeting of the Focus on Food / Fairtrade Leadership committee group. We had a group discussion about what we want the group to achieve this year and voted for 3 aims for the year. Some children researched fairtrade snacks for a possible Fairtrade tuckshop while others created a ‘Courgette Loaf Cake’ using produce from our garden in the Learning Kitchen. We can’t wait until our next session!
P7 Captain Elections
On Friday we held our whole school election for the p7 captains this year. Everyone got the opportunity to vote and our eight candidates will find out the results of the vote this week. Good luck to all!

QUAKING TIME IN P7
Today in p7 we had a parent’s open day. Our task was to build an earthquake proof building using marshmallows, straws and toothpicks. In addition the criteria stated that our buildings should be at least 25cm tall and have two stories. Once we had finished our buildings we tested them out by putting them on a tray of jelly and shaking the tray. If the building did not collapse then we would have a second test by putting a weight on it if it didn’t collapse with a weight on it we would put another weight on! During our task we had a false earthquake alarm and we all got under the tables and pulled our chair in, all the parents began to laugh (which you really shouldn’t do if there is a real earthquake.) We had a good result, none of buildings fell down!!!!

Banana Sushi
Last week in primary 7 we were making crepes with Nutella and banana.We made them from scratch with flour, milk and an egg. We mixed them all together and poured the batter into the pan and waited for it to cook. We even attempted to flip the pancakes!
After they were cooked we spread on our Nutella. Then we put our banana at the end of our pancake and carefully rolled it up. Next we cut it into bite size pieces and finally we got to eat them. They were very tasty.
The reason we were cooking this particular recipe was because it has recently been Pancake Tuesday and also because Fairtrade fortnight is focusing on breakfast food. In addition bananas and chocolate are typically associated as Fairtrade produces.
When we were not cooking were writing poems about the things we love and drawing portraits of our self to go with them. (written by Leah and Alexis)
