When talking about the features of churches, we wanted to find out more about stained glass window. We learned that they often tell stories and are a way of recording history. We made some ‘stained glass’ style pictures of spring flowers for our class windows! The light shines through them and they look fantastic 🙂

During the first week back after the holidays, P123 were finding out about signs of spring. We  learned more about birds nesting and listened to them chirping, new lambs bleating in the field across from the school, buds forming on the bushes and trees in the playground and looked closely at the colour and shapes of some spring flowers and read about frog spawn and tadpoles. We talked about spring at home as well. Some of us collected things to add to our display, others people took photos by themselves and emailed them to school so that we could show them on the Smartboard and talk about them and some of us made a poster to share our findings.

Well done to Primary 4 and 5. Last term they created a company called 4/5 Snack Attack and for the last week of term they ran the tuck shop selling healthy snacks for Health week. They all worked really well as a team and Mrs Harrison was so proud of them all. Not only did they pay back their loan but they also made a profit of £9.96. Mrs Harrison had agreed to match this and so it was rounded up to £20. As a class the children decided that they would like to donate it to a charity that helps people with cancer. Today Thomas’s mum who works for the Anthony Nolan Trust came into to tell the class what their donation would do.

Well done everybody- great work.
