In the spirit of the Winter Olympics, Mrs McAdam our PE specialist encouraged the children in Primary 1/2 to participate in indoor curling where they were learning to combine simple skills to demonstrate an effective performance.
Our afternoon children were keeping Blackburn tidy today when we did a litter pick. We picked up empty bottles, empty crisp packets and lots of other rubbish. We made King George park nice and tidy. We even managed a wee play in the park!
P4/5 have enjoyed going outside to help boost our numeracy skills. We took part in a scavenger hunt and developed our teamwork skills.
A1 and A2 celebrated Chinese New Year on Friday in style by enjoying a feast of different Chinese foods! They enjoyed all the conversation with their friends and finding out all about which Chinese animal year they were born in.
Rachel from the Dogs Trust brought in Bennie the Dog to visit our school today. Bennie loves listening to stories and we loved reading stories to him! He also enjoyed getting brushed, clapped and cuddled. We can’t wait to see Rachel and Bennie again next week!
Our launch of the Bookbug Explorer Bag was well attended by the parents and pupils of Hopefield Nursery. Everyone enjoyed the singing and the stories before a special visitor arrived to hand out the special Bookbug bags.
We look forward to hearing all about the stories which you received in your bag. You could even draw us a picture of the Bookbug with the pencils from your bag and bring it in for us to see.
We had a fantastic experience when our Primary 6/7 pupils came to read us our favourite stories. Both primary and nursery pupils thoroughly enjoyed this experience and we even had a shadow story from one of the boys. Iris chose “a girl” to read her the Giant of Jum book and Esme liked the shadow story but really enjoyed the Giant of Jum. Chardonnay and Frankie enjoyed the story about the Snail and the Whale. Mason loved Craig reading him a story about a teddy bear. Oskaras was so excited when he heard the story about the pirate. Kaeden and Cameron were finding out about the Dragon!
Looking forward to next week!
