They performed, sang and danced their hearts out, bringing Aladdin and Toy Story to life with confidence, colour and plenty of sparkle. Whether they were soaring on a magic carpet or channelling their inner Buzz Lightyear, they made the whole school proud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the spring sunshine finally making an appearance, we\u2019ve been outdoors as much as possible. Rounders season has officially begun in PE, and the children have thrown themselves into it with enthusiasm, dramatic dives and the occasional friendly debate about whether someone was truly out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Inside the classroom, the children continue to shine with their sign language skills. They\u2019ve been using BSL to practise spelling words, communicate with each other and show off their growing confidence. Their hands are working almost as hard as their brains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We also wrapped up our topic on Scottish inventors this month. The class loved discovering the brilliant minds behind everyday items and surprising creations. It\u2019s been full of \u201cI didn\u2019t know that\u201d moments and lots of admiration for Scotland\u2019s inventive spirit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now we\u2019re looking ahead to May, where we\u2019ll be diving into the exciting world of natural disasters. From volcanoes to tornadoes, the children are already super excited, with lots of questions and curiosity. Don\u2019t worry \u2014 all eruptions will be strictly imaginary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>April has been a fantastic month in P5v, full of energy, creativity and sunshine. Here\u2019s to an exciting May and even more learning and laughter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111510\/5-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-71\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111510\/5-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111510\/5-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111510\/5-800x1067.jpg 800w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111510\/5.jpg 945w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111533\/Image-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-72\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111533\/Image-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111533\/Image-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111533\/Image-800x1067.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111533\/Image.jpeg 945w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111606\/2-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-73\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111606\/2-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111606\/2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111606\/2-800x1067.jpg 800w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111606\/2.jpg 945w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111848\/3-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-74\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111848\/3-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111848\/3-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111848\/3-800x1067.jpg 800w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111848\/3.jpg 945w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"945\" height=\"1260\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111941\/4-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-75\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111941\/4-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111941\/4-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111941\/4-800x1067.jpg 800w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/nl\/public\/stgerardsp5\/uploads\/sites\/40360\/2026\/04\/29111941\/4.jpg 945w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 945px) 100vw, 945px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>April has been an absolute whirlwind in P5, the best kind of whirlwind, filled with music, magic, sunshine and just a sprinkle of delightful chaos.
