Primary 4-7 go outdoors every Friday. We love to explore our local area. Recently we have been learning how to build a fire and we have been playing games at the football pitch. We care for our environment and have been litter picking around the village.

P5/4 Term 3
This term has been a very busy one for Primary 5/4. We started our swimming sessions and have had lots of special events such as our Scottish Assembly, World Book Day, Red Nose Day and Science Week.
We started the term by learning about Scotland and Scots Language. We have now moved on to learning about our local area and castles. We completed lots of different activities during science week and we have been investigating with magnets.
In RME we have been learning about the story of Joseph and Easter. We will also be learning about Ramadan.
In PE we have been using the apparatus to work on our gymnastics skills. We have some excellent gymnasts in our class!
Scott Morrow (maths development officer) has been working with us to learn more about using concrete materials and pictorials to help to solve problems in different ways.
We have teamed up with p7/6 to work on the project “Make £5 Grow.” Keep an eye out next term for our enterprise ideas!
World Book Day
All of the children got to enjoy an Alice in Wonderland themed party and treasure hunt and there were lots of reading activities happening in classes throughout the day. We also held a Talk for Writing workshop for parents.
Fun Day
Primary 6/7 had a great time during our special treat day.

P7 Trip
Primary 7 had a great day at Dean Park then The Garage for go-karting and bowling. This was a special treat for them as they have missed out on the usual end of year celebrations due to Covid restrictions. It was a very busy and very fun day!
P7 leavers’ Presentation
Today was our presentation for our primary 7 children. Parents joined us via a live zoom link. The children received their gifts and trophies and certificates were awarded.
The children have been working hard this term making their own “Gogglebox” themed movie. Here is the link to watch it:

P7/6 Home Learning
More activities for children to do at home and links for useful websites have been added to Microsoft Teams. Children can access the class teams page by logging on to Glow and going to the Office 365 Microsoft Teams app. Children can also use this app to chat to each other and to ask their teacher any questions about the work they have to do.
