Once again, as promised, some more of our 3D houses that make up our Fantasy Street.
As you can see, lots of hard work has gone into these houses. Some of them even have residents!!! Who would live in a house like this?

Primary 7 have been studying the year of Mercy Logo. Children selected part of the logo that meant the most to them, then they recreated it. Here are some of our beautiful paintings.

Last week we were treated to not one, but two super Workshops. First of all, we learned all about the amazing work of the SSPCA and what we can do to help animals that are in trouble…
After that, we had some lovely ladies from Santander Bank in our classroom teaching us all about money. We learned how to budget by selecting some items for our imaginary bedroom. We all wanted a TV but came to realise that our budgets wouldn’t allow it!

As part of the year of Mercy, we have been looking at the story of The Lost Sheep. We know that the message God is sending us from this story is that even if we wander away from him, he will always love us. Here we are making some little sheep. First we made the body using cotton wool then we stuck on legs and our own faces! Check out our wall display.

As part of our topic “My School” we made a graph recording how we get to school. It had been a while since we made a graph but we remembered that a graph gives us information. After making the graph we chose a feelings face to show how successful we thought we were!
Gathering information
Answering questions about our findings
We feel proud!
We are happy
During literacy time we have been making sentences. We find using “roll a sentence” helps us. Here we are below. We have to remember capital letters and full stops because the dice don’t give us them!

In Spanish we have been learning all about clothes. We can label all our clothing in Spanish and can talk about colours and clothes we like.
Me gusta Zapatos- I like shoes!!!!!!
In art we have started looking at landscapes. We are working very hard trying to create perspective, light and shade, texture and realism. Eventually we will create a World War II landscape!

Primary six and seven were visited by the childline team who told them all about how to cope with worries and what treatment is ok and not ok.
Santander also visited the children to teach them all about money and how to budget. Great advice!
The SSPCA also visited our school and told us all about their organisation, how they help animals and they were able to answer our many questions about pets! We even finished with a great wee game about all the different animals.

Primary seven have came to the end of their God’s Loving Plan lessons. Our beautiful baby feet and baby pictures are shown in our display above. It has been very interesting learning all about marriage, creation, and God’s plans for us all.

This week in Primary 2/3 we have been busy learning about the story of The Rainbow Fish. We became familiar with the story and characters and explored one of the important messages behind the story; the importance of sharing.
We used card templates, lollipop sticks and lots of sparkly bits to create our own Rainbow Fish stick puppets.
We then used our puppets in drama to re-enact parts of the story. We added our own dialogue and some of the class were confident enough to perform to the rest of the class.
As well as thinking about the characters and story, we did some research on the setting of the book. We looked at videos and picures of some famous coral reefs and decided to make our own masterpieces. We used modelling clay to design our own coral reef then filled them carefully with water.
Mrs Maclean was so proud of our hard work that she decided to display it for all to see. We definitely are a talented bunch!
