This week we have been having our first “stay and play” sessions of the year. These have been a great success and the children have loved sharing their learning with you.
We would love to hear your feedback of these stay and play sessions, there is a whiteboard in the cloakroom for your comments!
Thanks 
” I can recognise numeral in my environment”
We have been seeing if we can recognise numbers in and outside in ELC.
We have been doing this in lots of different ways.
On our sponsored walk we spotted some numbers in the upper school playground.
Having number puzzles and resources out in ELC.
Using numbers when we have been making snack.
We also did a number game at gym. It was base on the game “corners” but instead of running to a picture we had to run to a number one of the ELC team said. We had great fun! The children have asked if we can do this again!
We all had a great time on Thursday doing our sponsored walk around the school whilst hunting for elves and Gnomes!
We went up to the mugga to at the top of the school and played the ring game “elf, elf, gnome!”
A big thank you to all the parent helpers
Primary 2 and 3 had a fun morning out walking to Spoon Woods to raise money. It was a long walk but, we enjoyed being out in the fresh air and enjoying the Peebles countryside.
A huge thank you to all of the adult volunteers who helped us out on our walk.
On the P2 Science trip to the East Gate last week we learned how to extract DNA from a strawberry. This means we can make more strawberries from the DNA in the future!
P2A painted red and white light houses and P2B painted white light houses on blue backgrounds. We sponged on the crashing waves and flashing lights. We have an amazing display in our corridor. Thank you to Mrs Ryalls for displaying our work so artistically.
We’re back from Dalguise and straight into working on our presentation for the P6 pupils and parents.
Each group needs to
In class we have been talking about different quotes and they have really got us thinking.
Here are some of them.
If you are part of it you put your heart into it!
You can’t blend in when you were born to stand out.
Your deeds are your monuments.
Can you add any quotes that have made you think? Do your family know any? Add them here and tell us what they make you think of and we will discuss them in class.
In Health and Wellbeing we have been thinking about a special place that makes us feels happy.
Mrs Harrison’s is her bedroom. She likes to snuggle down with a good book and a cup of tea and she likes to shut the door and have a bit of peace and quiet!
Tell us about your happy place. Where is it? What do you do there and what does it make you feel?
A red pair of tweezers like this has gone missing in P3B. Its brothers and sisters are really missing it and would like to find it so we don’t have to share them. Any information on the whereabouts of the red pair of tweezers should be directed to Mrs Dundas. Thank you!
