Here we are busy in class learning about sounds and capital letters.

We had  a great time at the Problem Solving day . Everyone worked together and soled the shape puzzles.

At art time we painted pictures of ourselves. You will see them when you come up for our assembly on the 29th September.

We were so pleased to have our parents and carers at the Stay and Read again.

Then we all went to the hall for the big maths quiz.

On Friday afternoon we went to the computer room and learned how to switch on the computer and use the mouse.

We’ve had a very busy week jam packed full of different learning activities.

We have been busy in class. Primary 6 have been learning all about mixed numbers and improper fractions. The primary 5’s are working on place value.

During art we created drawings of a knight using chalk pastels

Super drawing

We were celebrating Mary’s birthday.

It has been another fun filled week for the children in Primary 4! On Monday we were at Alan’s Road Safety Magic Show in the hall where we learned lots of important tips about staying safe on the roads. On Tuesday we made fruit salads during our cooking lesson, they all looked and tasted great! On Wednesday we got to do some problem solving activities in the hall for maths week. Yesterday we made glitter bottles as a craft activity and today we had the family maths quiz in the hall. Phew! What a great week!

Everyone has settled in well to school life and we are all enjoying learning with Mrs Carlin. We really love having our parents come along to our Stay and Read Sessions on Friday mornings – it’s great to have a little extra time together to read.

Not only do we have the right to learn in Primary 1, we also have the right to play! As we all enjoy running around outside at playtime and lunchtime, we also enjoy the play area outside our class where we can choose who to play with and where to play.

Keep up to date with our learning by visiting our blog regularly!

A  Great start to Primary 5/6!

This week was a fabulous week for us as we had an amazing visit to the zoo. The weather was not great but we managed to stay dry and didn’t let the lack of sunshine damped our enthusiasm.

The birds we saw were very beautiful and well looked after.

There were a lot of surprises in the reptile house.

Can you spot this Ruffle-necked-lizard?

Shshshshsh! We don’t want this guy to waken up…he’s huge!

Look at this green lizard waving at us!

A bright and colourful parrot.

Two giant tortoises were fast asleep.

These crocodiles were so still they looked likes statues….but they weren’t!

Can you see this crocodiles eyes peeping up above the water?

At the petting zoo.

This reindeer was losing its warm winter coat.

This reindeer wasn’t too interest in us.

The rescued lions were amazing.

We couldn’t believe how huge they were.

The secret garden was beautiful.

We all loved this little pagoda.

A beautiful place filled with gorgeous plants.

This emu made us laugh.

Handling a milk snake with one of the zoo keepers.

Handling a cockroach…it was very tickly.

Everyone fell in love with this little spikey tenrec from Madagascar.

We all had an interesting and exciting time at the zoo and learned lots of new information and saw lots of new animals and plants. This will help us in our living things topic this term. Thank you to the people at the zoo and thank you to our parent helpers for helping us enjoy our day.
