House Teams – STEM Challenge

Our whole school STEM challenge involved all pupils across all 4 “houses”.  This one shows some of the children making a game out of basic resources.  They worked well together as a team to make a catapult to launch the frog onto its lily pad.  Younger and older children mixed together to share skills and ideas to meet their targets.

Inclusive Culture

As part of our Health and Well-being lessons, Primary 5 have been thinking about how to help create a more inclusive culture for the school.  We spoke about some words to get a better understanding of what they mean, like culture, inclusion, misunderstood, alone.  Then we spoke about some tricky playground situations that might happen, and what ideas we had to improve things for everyone.  Finally we designed posters to put up and help remind us of our approach.  Here are 2 examples.

Animation

We have started exploring how to created animations.  There are so many different areas of the curriculum that we can bring together in this learning.  Click on the text below to see one of our first steps into the world on animation.
