P5a have enjoyed designing their own mascots for the Commonwealth Games. This is our topic for this term.

We used our ICT skills to find out about the Scottish Parliament and the various meeting rooms. P5 are preparing for their own elections – they have designed a leaflet to promote their party and come up with their manifesto. Using persuasive language has been tricky. Ben M said, “Politics is confusing.”

Last week everyone enjoyed street dance, fencing, gymnastics and handball as part of Health week.

We also got to make our own paper which was part of Eco week, although some is still drying out!

We welcome Morgan, a new girl to the class.
