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.

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!

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!

We had a visit from a karate specialist who taught us some moves and some Japanese. We had great fun training with him.

This week the children have been taking part in a very worthwhile life skills block on budgeting in Maths. They have been comparing costs of the same items from different retailers to work out the best value. They are now taking part in a budgeting challenge to source and “buy” items from a wish list with a budget of £300. The tricky part will be deciding which items to leave off their list if they cannot afford everything!

The children in rooms 13 and 14 made these super posters illustrating the phases of the moon.

We have been learning how we can make our writing much more interesting by using adjectives.
