Halloween Disco

Thanks to everyone involved in making our Halloween Disco a huge success last night. The children had a great time, their costumes were fantastic and their behaviour was excellent.

Thanks to our wonderful PTA for organising the event and preparing the goodie bags. Thanks to the great turn out of parent helpers who came along to help. Thanks to the teachers who gave up their own time to support the event and to ‘Disco Dave’ for making it a great night.

Happy Holidays

Happy holidays to staff and pupils at Wallace Primary and Nursery! Thanks for all your hard work and for  making me feel so welcome.  A great first term! I look forward to seeing everyone back on Monday 23rd October, have a great holiday! #luckyheadteacher

Paper Chain Challenge

Primary 5 were set a tough challenge today… Miss Montgomery asked everyone to try and create the longest paper chain possible using only one sheet of A4.  To make it even harder, each chain had to be exactly 2cm wide! Each pair had the same materials to work with: one A4 piece of paper, one ruler, scissors and glue.  As pupils only had one piece of paper, they spent time discussing their ideas and strategies with partners before beginning to assemble their chains.

Everyone had different ideas and it was so interesting to see all of the different designs.  We all came together and used our estimating skills to guess which one was the longest before comparing the paper chains.

And the winner was….

 

 

Well done Primary 5!! Your ideas for creating your paper chains were all brilliant.  Good luck in the next challenge…
