Back to work!
The primary 4/5 class have been showing some impressive football skills this week. We focussed on how to use different parts of our foot when dribbling and how this can help us to demonstrate close control. I think that the future of Scottish football is going to be very bright indeed!

Primary 1 at The Five Sisters Zoo.
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.

Jennifer Thompson- Scottish artist pr5
We have been looking at the art work of Jennifer Thompson who is a Scottish artist.
We loved how her work is so bright and vibrant and we did a little research into her paintings. She likes to paint family days out. Visits to the beach, picnics and so on. Her work has a lovely happy feeling.
We loved her painting of the Forth Road Bridge. She has actually painted her own family into this.
We then began making our own umbrella pictures. We can’t wait to share our finished designs next week!

Learning with primary 1.
This week we had our last Stay and Read. Thank you to all of the parents and carers who came along over the sessions to read with us. We have loved it.
Also this week, we had a taster session of Komodo Karate. Look at the skills we learned and the fun we had.
In the computer room this week, we have been showing the teacher how much we know about the seasons and the weather before we move on to another topic next week.
We finished off our Weather topic by looking at hot and cold countries. We packed our suitcases for different climates and made a colourful map of the world showing the hot and cold areas.
We have been reading some very tricky books this term. We are definitely ready for primary 2!
Look at this super girl. She ran the Race for Life and raised a great deal of money for cancer research. We are very proud of you.

Celebrating Mary in pr 5
This week we have been learning about Mary. We have been looking at the mysteries of the Rosary. We started by looking at the joyful mysteries. We were looking at the joyful times in Mary’s life.
We then started to investigate Mary further. Did you know that it is exactly 100 years since Mary appeared to the children in Fatima? We were learning all about the story at Fatima and all the amazing things that happened. Later on in this month we will have our own celebration for the 100 years anniversary!
