We have been working on learning to tell the time with Miss Clark, our Student Teacher. Today we were learning about 5 minute intervals.
P4 and P4/5 joint P.E
We had great fun in P.E today learning some badminton skills. We were practising getting used to using shuttlecocks and working as part of a team.
Co-op Local Fund £900 Grant
We are delighted to announce that we were successful in receiving a £900 grant from the local co-op fund. Our application was to fund a potting shed and poly tunnel. This will help to develop our ‘Grow It, Cook It, Eat It’ aim for all. Many thanks to our parents and partners who took the time to vote for our application. It is very much appreciated!
P5’s Super Homework
Well done to these two children who have worked hard at home to complete their topic homework tasks! P5 were very impressed with your artwork. Well done!
P5 Target Games
In primary 5 we have been working on our target games. We played a hockey game, a bowling game and a bean-bag throwing game. The way we played it was we set cones and had to dribble a ball with a hockey stick around the cones. We then had to shoot at the goals as our target. For the bowling we set up five bowling pins on each side we played in two teams. The first team to knock down all the other teams bowling pins won! And, last but not least, the bean-bag throwing. If you managed to throw your bean bag into the first set of cones you got 10 points, the second set of cones you got 20, and the last set of cones you got 30 points. If it slid past all the cones you got 0!

Active Spelling
P1a have been working hard learning their common words with our student teacher Miss Riach.
Primary 4 – Wonderful Weather
We have been working extremely hard today on researching various types of extreme weather in the world. We worked in our co-op learning groups to research storms, hurricanes, tornadoes, tsunamis and lightning. Did you know that tornadoes can reach up to speeds of 483 kilometres per hour? Did you also know that thunder and lightning happen at the same time, but because light travels faster than sound, we see lightning before we hear the thunder?
Fairtrade Pancake Party
The P4/5 worked really hard this afternoon to make Fairtrade pancakes for themselves and P5. The theme of this year’s Fairtrade Fortnight is ‘sit down for breakfast, stand up for farmers’ so we used Fairtrade products to make some pancakes! We thought about how even before we finish our breakfast in the morning we could have depended on half the world already! Have a think about where your breakfast comes from – you will be amazed!
We then watched a Fairtrade video about the farmers and scoffed our pancakes! Well done P4/5!
