Thank you to everyone who bought 1kg of rice from P4 Fairtraders. We have sold all 90kg which means a child can go to High School for a year in Malawi. Enough money has been made by the farmer to pay the school fees.

Fairtrade Art Competition
Every class took part in this year’s competition which was to draw and colour a picture which included the Fairtrade logo. Every class had one winner and the overall winners were Dylan P4a, Jennifer P6a and Sofia P5b. The prizes were Fairtrade chocolate and key rings. The judges were the P4 Fairtrade committee. All the entries were very good and the best are now on display in school.

Road Race Stars
Primary 6 and 7 pupils did us proud last week at the Renfrewshire Schools Road Race when they swept the board, coming in 1st overall in the P6 Girls, P6 Boys and P7 Girls events. A special mention must go to Sarah Lyle who came 1st and Caitlin Mackenzie who came 3rd in the P7 Girls race and Josh Buchanan who came 2nd in the P7 Boys event. We think you are all stars!

Marvellous Malawi
We had a brilliant visit from Caesar and Martha all the way from Malawi. They taught us some words and phrases and then we had the chance to make some noise by drumming and dancing! Our art work inspired by Tinga Tinga impressed our visitors too. We enjoyed blending warm colours for the background and used solid black to create body parts. Miss Adam brought in fabrics to show us which helped bring our art to life.
Footballs – Malawi style!
As we are looking at Malawi as part of our Global Citizenship topic, we found out children there enjoy playing football as much as some of us do in Scotland.
Using newspaper, recycled bags and lots of string, we set about making our own footballs. Some of us got into a bit of a pickle tying the string but under Miss Adam’s guidance, we all managed to achieve success. We then had fun in the sun playing a variety of games with our hand-made footballs.
