Rangoli Patterns

As part of our RME topic this term, we recently learned about Diwali and how it is celebrated around the world. During Diwali, Hindus draw bright Rangoli patterns to encourage the goddess Lakshmi to enter their homes.

The class had fun creating their own designs.

Lighthouse

P5-7 recently worked together to design and paint a lighthouse. The lighthouse will be part of a ‘Lighthouse Trail’ organised by CLAN and in association with Wild in Art. The class enjoyed working on their lighthouse in groups, with every pupil contributing to the final design. What a beautiful job they have done!

Ollaberry Primary School would like to say a huge THANK YOU to everyone who made a donation to our foodbank collection.

The bairns were so happy when they saw how much they had collected. We really appreciate each and every donation.

We will be delivering our collection to the local foodbank in Brae this week.

Thank you!

Planting Bulbs

P5-7 had fun this morning tidying up the pots around the school and planting some bulbs. The class worked together to clear out the pots and plant daffodils.

They then chose where they wanted the pots to go. We’re looking forward to some bright, cheery flowers in spring!

Practical Maths

As part of our practical maths this term, P5-7 are learning about volume and capacity.

They were set two challenges today:

  1. To create shapes using different numbers of cubes and work out their volume.
  2. To calculate the volume of the classroom.

Everyone had great fun working together to solve the problems.

Festivals and Celebrations

Our topic in P5-7 this term is World Religions: Festivals and Celebrations.

We are learning about different world religions and how they celebrate important events throughout the year.

Today we learned about the Hindu festival of Navaratri. We made our own Navaratri sticks.

Drama Club

As we are unable to put on our usual Pantomime this year, the bairns have decided to create a Drama Club!

They have written their own plays and are working together to direct and produce their creations.

The older pupils are supporting younger pupils to join in and everyone is having great fun.
