In Number Talks we learned loads of new strategies in mental maths like making a friendly number.

Our reading homework was to do an illustrator task using a book we have read. They were all really spectacular. Here are some                                                                                                                                                                          011

This week in health and wellbeing we are learning about the green cog. The green cog is behaviours. We used the movie Inside Out. We drew around some P1s for the outline of the characters. We added behaviour words to them.                                                                         019 016

JYHS Cluster Successful PolliNATION Bid

The James Young Cluster Schools have made a successful bid for funding for a polliNATION project to plant wildflower meadows to attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies.

Children from all four schools met in Williamston Primary for a celebration photograph. We are all looking forward to saving our bees.

Many thanks to Ben Mason and Emma Colligan for representing Bankton.

Andy Murray Watch Out!

Primary one had a fabulous opportunity today when they were given a taste of the skills needed for playing tennis.  Coach Ian complimented the children on how hard they had worked and on how well they were controlling the tennis balls.  Josh showed off his knowledge when he confidently named some tennis players and Jason was really impressed by coach Ian’s skills saying that he was awesome!  The children are very much looking forward to session two next week.     100_3719100_3727100_3722100_3726100_3720
