Pupil voice groups met today to take our ideas forward. The eco group were auditing our playground equipment and the St Andrew’s Ambassadors were raising awareness of the Hospice by colouring logos to display around the school.

Today we took part in a science experiment to find out whether we are non tasters, tasters or super tasters. We had to coat the front of our tongues in food colouring then count the number of papillae in one small section. These are the tiny lumps that cover our tongues. Those of us who have five or fewer in the small area are non tasters, if we have between six and ten we are tasters and if we have more than ten we are super tasters. We discovered that in Room 13, two of us are non tasters, ten are tasters and we have seven super tasters!

We have been learning how to multiply and divide decimals by 10, 100 and 1000. We had a fun tarsia activity to match the questions to the correct answers. Me and my partner  completed the tarsia in under 10 minutes. We are the champions of tarsia.

Here are some pictures from our fabulous P6/7 panto.

We went onto big huge labs.com and created our own posters   for Escape from Planet Earth.

We were learning about the movie “Escape from Planet Earth” and I made a movie poster about the movie!

The Senior Department has been very busy preparing for our pantomime. While the actors and chorus have been rehearsing on stage, the backstage crew have been working hard preparing the scenery, tickets and programmes. You are in for a treat!

Room 13 have been very busy interpreting information  from different types of timetables. They have been working hard to read timelines and convert between 12 and 24 hour time.

The children in Primaries six and seven have been learning all about Armistice Day and the importance of remembering all of our fallen soldiers. They have written reports and poems and have created some amazing artwork, including a giant stained glass window scene!
