Fab Kids have Fab Time at FABLAB

For the past ten weeks a group of P7 children have visited Strathclyde University FABLAB. They have learnt to use Tinkercad 3D design software and created lots of models using 3D printers. The children were wonderful ambassadors for our school and have been invited back for extra sessions. They will share their knowledge and skills with the rest of their year group and their friends in P6 by participating in the Education Scotland event-Build It Scotland.

The Tombola was very popular…Ms Hutchison and Mrs Blakemore thought they were coming to drink coffee and eat cake!!
Well done and thank you to everyone who came along on Saturday morning – it was lovely to see so many parents, children and staff.  I have never known the Coffee Morning to be so busy for the whole time.  Thank you to everyone for all of the donations we received – without your support we would not be able to organise such a worthwhile event.  Once we have counted all of the money we will announce the total raised.

Tortilla Pizzas 🍕

Primary 6 made tortilla pizzas as part of their Fractions topic. They cut them in different ways to show examples of equivalent fractions.

The pizzas were delicious, we enjoyed them so much we wrote an instructional writing piece on how to make them!

We would be happy share our recipe with you, just find your nearest P6 pupil and we will fill you in on how to make them 🍕🍕
