It’s a hive of activity today in the P5-7 classroom….. or should I say newsroom! 
The children are working very hard at putting together not one …not two ….BUT  THREE class newspapers!! 
Each year group have a deadline of Wednesday 22nd of March to get their magnificent media masterpieces finished. Copies will be available when they are hot off the press during the last week of term.
Good luck teams!

In our lunch hall we have a food waste trolley. It has 4 different compartments they are –
When we are finished with our plates we sit them on a shelf for the lunch lady to wash them for the next day.
We go on the trim – trail every time we go out for break time and lunch time. It was installed in 2014.
We are doing ‘The News’ for our new topic. We have already got a few articles on the P5-7 wall.
The P5’s are learning decimals in Maths. I really enjoy doing it. I don’t know about the others.
We have just finished doing time for our maths. I found it okay.
P5-7 have started rugby every Tuesday with Aiden. Even though I was not there I will be doing it next week.
