Over the past couple of months, P5 have been learning a lot about the Titanic and have even made a huge wall display of it; each making their own cabins and\/or lifeboats. Did you know, there were only 20 lifeboats on the real Titanic but it should have had 64?!<\/p>\n

The children also took part in a STEM activity to see if they could make a tinfoil boat that floated and could carry coins. We certainly have some budding engineers in our class!<\/p>\n

In Health and Wellbeing, we each created our own Colour Monsters to explore feelings and emotions. They’re on display outside our classroom if you’d like to come and meet them.<\/p>\n

In RE we listened to and discussed the story of Father Damien who lived with sufferers of leprosy. He was such a kind and inspirational man; he made a real difference to this outcast community.<\/p>\n

As part of our topic The Titanic, the children worked in groups to try to put the inventions\/events in order. It should give some parents out there a wee chuckle!<\/p>\n
