These children completed fantastic biographies on current famous Scots for their topic homework. They presented them confidently to the class yesterday and Mrs.Fisher was very impressed! We found out some interesting facts about Billy Connolly, Calvin Harris, Sir Jackie Stewart and Sir Alex Ferguson to name a few!

Some of us wanted to find out more about things that float on the water, so we did some investigating.

We found out that a plastic cups, pencils, counting cubes, wooden sticks and lemon float in water.

We also found out that limes, pennies,cotton wool, crayons and elastic bands will sink.

We had great fun doing our active spelling tasks this morning. One group did Secret Agent Spelling and the other did their Graffiti Walls using our Scots language spelling words!

A wonderful vision of red in Assembly this morning to support Comic Relief. Thank you to everyone who has taken part.

An extra well done to our competition winners who designed fantastic entries!

P5 have enjoyed their first few visits to the Time Capsule! Here are some of us practising our athletics in the dry side!

As part of World Book Day, p6/7 enjoyed taking photos for the ‘Get Caught Reading’ challenge – here are some snaps…

P6/7 began recreating Roy Lichtenstein’s artwork, ‘In The Car’ during the school open event last Friday.  Each pupil had a small section of the original to redraw to a bigger scale and when complete, we put everyone’s pieces together to create a class mural. Here is the pupil’s work placed together, along with the original we worked from.

We have been learning about the Battle of Stirling Bridge this week and how the bridge was significant in the outcome. William Wallace’s army beat the English with the help of the weak structure of Stirling Bridge.

Mrs Fisher challenged us to build a bridge that wasn’t weak! It had to hold a certain weight and we worked together in teams to create and design different bridges thinking about what structures would be best!

Have a look at the results.

A huge thank you to all of the parents who came to P4/5 today and helped us with our Gillian Kyle inspired tunnocks artwork. The children loved having you all there and the finished pieces are fantastic! Photos of the children’s artwork have been sent to tunnocks to see!
