Primary 5 were fortunate enough to take part in a Rugby Festival organised by our Active Schools coordinator. They took part in sessions with Rugby Development Coaches and then played some games against each other. Unfortunately the rain ended the festival earlier than planned – typical Scottish weather!
Primary 5 have been taking part in Rugby sessions over the past few weeks. They have been learning the rules of rugby and developing their skills in passing and moving safely with the ball. They are really looking forward to taking part in the festival in a few weeks time.
Primary 5 have been making the most of the lovely warm weather this week and have enjoyed some outdoor learning. They went on a nature walk around the school grounds and made lovely bracelets using all the colourful things that nature had to offer.
They also took their spelling lesson outside, using chalk to practise their tricky words!
Primary 5 took part in a Judo taster session by Destination Judo this week. They had great fun!
Primary 5 were lucky enough this week to Mrisho Mpoto this week. He is a Tanzian poet. They had great fun singing and dancing with him!
Primary 5 have been egg-static at the arrival of our baby chicks. They have been glued to glow, hoping to catch a glimpse of them hatching live online! In class they have been working together as a team to transport an egg around an obstacle course, writing cinquain poems and creating news reports. They are looking forward to seeing the chicks close up next week.
Primary 5 visited Strirling Castle as part of their project. They had a fantastic time and learned a lot.
Primary 5 created this fantastic wall display all about Robert Burns. They found out about his life, his poems and how we remember him every year.
Primary 5 have been busy learning about what it means to have a Growth or a Fixed Mind Set. We have realised that sometimes you need to step out of your comfort zone to push yourself!
We created characters with a Growth and Fixed Mindset so that we know the difference.
Primary 4 and 5 marked the 25th anniversary of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child by choosing the right most important to each of them.
