End of Year Party and Goodbye to Hasan

1 Comment

We had a lovely afternoon today. Lots of the class had made or brought in party food 🎉 🍰  🍪 . We said our goodbyes to Hasan and wished him luck in his new school in England.

We had an awards ceremony for achievements for the year, our Accelerated Reader lucky dip and then played Winky  Murder and then Pie Face 🥧! It was so funny!

Then we opened our ‘Go Wild’ packs from Ms Scanlan. Finally we had our party food outside (watching a couple of frogs 🐸). Here are some of our Pie Face photos, thanks for that Faith! 😂

On Monday 4th June, we had a very exciting day at Sandwick, working with some of the Sandwick and Cunningsburgh primary classes to perform The Dragon of the Western Sea.

We met in the games hall first to run through all the singing, with a bit of acting, then we separated off to polish our performances. After lunch we had a dress rehearsal and then at 2pm, the performance in front of an audience of school bairns, family and friends. It is amazing how quickly the final polished performance was put together and we were very pleased with how well our bairns did. What a fantastic day.

Outdoor Classroom Day – Tree planting

Leave a comment

On Thursday 17th May, Primary 5/6 had a great morning planting up a new area of the school grounds with the Woodlands Trust trees that we received last autumn. The grass was strimmed and John made planting holes to put the saplings into. After a quick demonstration  the children soon learnt how to bed the trees in and by break time we had a whole new forest planted up. We can’t wait to see how they grow.
