Please have a peek in your child’s homework folder. Parents’ Night return slips are due on Thursday 14th March and we would hate for anyone to miss out on their desired appointment.

Joyful Joins
Primary 1
Here are our new joins from the week.
Colour Mixing
Primary 1 have been busy learning all about mixing colours this week. We read Mouse Paint, a story about naughty mice mixing paint. We mixed paint, we used coloured goggles to mix colours and we used different coloured lens to mix colours. Ask us about the primary and secondary colours.
World Book Day
Primary 1 looked amazing in their World Book Day costumes. We went to different classes in the afternoon to hear a story of our choice.
P7 Character Analysis
In our shared novel ‘Kensuke’s Kingdom’, we have looked closely at the character of Kensuke. In our most recent chapter, we’ve seen a different side to him and some of our opinions of him have changed. We discussed his various personality traits and used evidence from the text to support our opinions.
The following day we wrote a persuasive essay to answer the question ‘Kensuke is a kind and caring man. Do you agree or disagree?’. We structured our arguments and wrote detailed points.
Finally, we then held a mini debate to argue for and against the question! Each side made their points really well and had challenging questions from the audience.
Our Chairperson did a fantastic job of ensuring a balanced approach to the debate. In the end, the vote was 15-4 to…the For side!
Minutes of Anti-bullying consultation and PC AGM
Minutes attached of last PC Meeting. This was consultation on the anti-bullying policy and our AGM.
Fairtrade Fortnight
Primary 6 and some of the boys and girls from the Nursery had a go at baking a Swiss roll. We used Fairtrade jam as our filling. It certainly was a sweet way to start off our Monday morning!
P7 Maths Journals
@AttainRen Primary 7 have recently begun using Maths Journals as a way to explore Maths concepts and ideas in more detail. The class have ownership of their Journals and the way in which they choose to present the information is entirely down to them. The pupils were really excited to share their knowledge of Area in their Maths Journals…we can’t wait to see what goes in them next!
