Here are some photos of the Christmas events from this year

We sang at the Christmas tree lighting, and P7s switched on the lights.

We had Christmas lunch with the Lunch Club, and then sang for them in the Clubrooms afterwards.

We had a couple of trips, with the Nursery children going to soft play and the Primary children meeting with the children from Rousay School for a session on the inflatables and to watch Paddington in Peru at the Pickaquoy Centre.

The Nursery children have had fun printing their own wrapping paper.

In Science this term the primary children have been learning about Sound. Here are some photos of what the children have been doing

The children learned that you can see sound vibrations in action, using rice and musical instruments.

The children learned how sound travels in waves. They experimented with seeing whether sound travels best through solids, liquids or gases.

The children learned about pitch.

Barbara Balcombe came in to teach the children about hearing loss and what can help people with hearing loss. The children looked at some different devices and learned some signs.

As part of our topic about France, we tried some French food. We had to ask for what we wanted in French, and then say whether we liked it or didn’t like it. We used “je voudrais” to ask for our food, and “j’aime” or “je n’aime pas” to say whether we liked it.
