Well done to these superstars who have been recognised at our assembly over the last two weeks
. We really are proud of them all.
Room 7 visited the Sky Academy in Livingston today. The children were given a challenge to design a piece of technology that could help someone with hearing/sight difficulties. They had the opportunity to use cutting edge technology to create their own adverts for the products. We seen some excellent teamwork with children working as presenters, directors, camera operators and we even had some special effect technicians. Well done everyone!!
Miss Devoy and Room 13 worked very hard last week to organise a fantastic MacMillan Coffee Morning within the school. It came with the usual array of entertainment and let’s not forget the ‘The Great St Augustine’s Bake Off’. The children in Room 13 worked hard to prepare a song showcasing their admiration for the nurses and the fighters and survivors. We had some fantastic entries from children throughout the school for our Bake Off, from Unicorns and Books to Tree-house Tea Parties and Cheeseburgers & Chips. Thank you to all who attended and donated, we raised an amazing £552.71!
As you can see our characters are taking shape. We got to photograph our characters against a backdrop this week and watch some of the animations we made last week. Great fun!
Vickie from the National Coal Board came to share her expertise on the history of coal to enhance children’s learning in their Canal project. As you can see we look the part!
Last Thursday Primary 6 Room 16 started their canal project. They were able to dress u as Glasgow gentry and navvies exploring the history of canals. Later they constructed bridges from pasta and marshmallows. This week they began their animation project………….in 6 weeks time they will showcase their work to parents at Summerlee Heritage Park!
Our P4-7 Assembly was an opportunity to discuss our school values and how it is important for us to have self belief in our own abilities and judgements. We learned how it is important for us to keep going when things get tough.
At our assembly we also recognised those who demonstrated resilience, hard work, the ability to try their best and also those who challenged themselves. We are so proud of all our award winners.
This week, the children in room 7 enjoyed creating and sharing their own theme park designs. They had to work with a budget of £500,000, work out the opening costs, profit and losses after their opening and advertising costs.
