SPRING IS DEFINITELY HERE!

We explored the garden and playground for signs of Spring this morning as part of our topic ‘Living Life!’

We found lots of interesting things that we know are to do with Spring – lambs in the field, daffodils, dandelions, buttercups, caterpillars, buds, leaves on trees, blossom, green grass, sun high in the sky, tadpoles, bumblebees and plants beginning to grow.   The caterpillars were very popular!!

Da Voar Redd Up

We enjoyed a dry and bright window of weather on Tuesday afternoon – which luckily coincided with our Voar Redd Up slot!

We were teamed up with our talking partners and a pair from Secondary 1A.  We had a great time ‘hokking’ around for bruck and managed to fill a few bags although there wasn’t too much to find.

 

 

 

Memory Boxes

We had a lot of fun decorating our Memory Boxes today.  We each took in a box which we were able to decorate and label with the art materials available.  It was a lot of fun and the children were all attentive at their task.  We also learned about using apostrophes!

A Memory Box can be used to store your memories so you can come back and look at it whenever you like.  You might put in it favourite toys from when you were younger, books, drawings, cards, or maybe something to remember a loved one by who is no longer with us.

Thank you Dylan for originally sharing the idea with us :-).

RNLI colouring in competition

Elora and Thomas M were delighted to receive their RNLI colouring in competition entries back framed.  They had been chosen as the top two colouring in entries in the class!  Well done.  Thank you to Ian Derbyshire for coming down to deliver the news!

P2/3 Class Assembly

We would like to say a huge thank you to parents and families who were able to  come to our assembly today.  We know that it is not always possible for everyone to come.  Thank you  for all the support from parents in learning lines and song words too.

We began our assembly with ‘Welcome Everybody’ from http://www.fischy.com/ an  upbeat welcoming song which all the pupils and staff joined in with – and maybe some parents too – it is hard not to!

We then shared what we have been learning about Islam,  as part of our RME curriculum  – click on our parents web to find out more about our RME this term or feel free to ask Mrs A or Mrs B.

Next we  shared a movie of us participating in our Fresh 15 minutes of exercise everyday.  This movie was a lot of fun to make….and  watch!  Our Fresh 15 minutes of activity each days helps us to have healthier bodies and minds which helps us learn better at school.  It’s win-win all round!

We finished off our assembly with another Fischy Music song – ‘I feel good’.  It’s a cracker as well, acknowledging the different emotions we go through.

We really enjoyed our assembly and hope you did too.  The pupils all showed how their confidence is growing in speaking on stage (with microphones!) to a whole hall full of people!  Amazing. 🙂

Well done P2/3

Happy Holidays from P2/3!

We have enjoyed meeting Santa today and all received really cool books.  Thank you Santa.
