Last day of Primary 4  – so sad😔. Happy holidays, everybody!

Here are some photos from our trip to the Science Centre. We had a fabulous time and enjoyed so many hands on activities as well as a Bodyworks presentation.

Here is a flavour of our school show performance, these photos are from Tuesday night, so I hope to have even more children on the stage tonight. Many thanks to those who are coming in for the evening performances, we really appreciate it.

Today in French we were having a revision of some basic conversational vocabulary and worked in pairs or a small group to practise. 

Today we continued with our Impressionist style paintings.

We are taking our time to focus on the colours and forms of Claude Monet’s original painting.

We are looking forward to our show tomorrow and can’t wait to show you our performance.

Today in art we were looking at another painting by Claude Monet, this time his “Poppies” painting from 1873. We could choose which medium to use, either watercolour or poster paint. Here are two paintings at the beginning of the process.

Thank you to those who have brought in their Show clothes and please could everyone else bring them in tomorrow. Thank you.

Please could everyone bring their own water bottle filled with fresh water and this should last the day unless it is exceptionally warm.

A reminder that show clothes should be brought in as soon as possible because we have a dress rehearsal later on this week. Please put the clothes into a named bag: blue jeans, dungarees or leggings, glittery hair bows and accessories, glittery or shiny soft shoes, sand shoes or school shoes. Thank you.

Primary 4 has been very busy recently.

We were learning about pitch with  Clare in Kodaly music.

In Science we have been learning how to classify different living things and checked the facts for different animal groups to help us create questions for animal flow charts.

Here we were writing our recounts of Sports Day, applying the skills that we have been practising through the year.

Once we had finished writing, we carried out our self and peer assessments.

In art we learnt some facts about the French painter Claude Monet and used finger painting to create an Impressionist style picture.

Here are 2 finished copies of the lilies under the bridge in the garden at Giverny.

Congratulations to one of our pupils who won 2 medals at a gymnastics competition at the weekend. Well done!

This afternoon we were invited to an Art Exhibition held by Primary  7. It was great fun and we learnt about different styles of art.
