Well done P1B on a wonderful assembly all about Scotland this morning. They did a fabulous job saying their lines, singing and reciting their poems. Thanks to all the parents, carers and grandparents that came along to support us!
P1 have been working hard at their phonics sounds. Look at their super writing of the sounds! Amazing!
1st star We enjoyed playing handball at P.E. this week.
2nd star We were delighted when we received a letter from Willy Wonka asking us to help his recruitment team. We worked in teams to produce posters advertising the skills required to work in the Chocolate Factory.
Wish We are looking forward to our assembly next week.

1st Star: We had a great time making Scarab Beetles from clay. The Egyptians used Scarab Beetles as lucky charms!
2nd Star: We have really enjoyed doing addition in maths this week, especially learning Egyptian numbers and solving tricky sums!
Wish: We can’t wait to paint our Scarab Beetles yellow, green, blue and red to symbolise the sun, growing things and the River Nile.
In Term 3 Primary 3/2 have been learning about dinosaurs. This week we have been looking at dinosaur fossils, what they are and how they are made. To develop our understanding of this we recreated how fossils can be made by layering slices of bread (to represent soil, sand, rocks, etc) one of top of the other and inserting a dinosaur shape. We then squashed down each layer as it was put on to show the pressure that layering of soil could do. We carefully took off each slice and found our fossil shape at the bottom.

The netball team are training hard for the forthcoming netball festival. We have been practicing every Tuesday over the past few weeks. We have been learning to develop our netball skills including ball control, defending and shooting. We have been supplied with new training bibs. Do you like them?
This week’s team challenge was to build a house out of paper using only 2 sheets of A4 paper, 2 paperclips and 50cm of sellotape. Teams had 15 minutes to complete the challenge. Skills needed: collaboration, creativity, communication and resilience.
Well done to Primary 5 who had the winning team!
