Saturday singing at M&S!

Leave a reply

What a fantastic Saturday morning at M&S with our school choir! The store manager, Nick, said we should go down everyday until Christmas! He said that the customers and staff loved hearing and we had everybody in the store dancing about. Nicola and Georgia spoke to him and Carolyn at the end to thank them for having us and for more yummy snacks.

 

Thank you also to Mrs Burgon, Mrs Seawright, and Miss Bethell for coming along to support us! We also want the thank all the pupils,  parents and siblings for giving up their Saturday morning – Keeva and Demi-Leigh were great singers too!

What an amazing effort from our amazing choir this morning at Marks and Spencer’s in Livingston! We had such a fun time singing to the staff and customers – one little girl in particular loved our singing! We were lucky to be given a yummy “posh” snack which helped us sing for over an hour! Here are some pictures of us enjoying our treats and singing our hearts out – Mrs Duncan enjoyed joining in with ‘Unto Us’.

 

A big thank you to Mrs Thomson and Mrs Roy who counted the money we raised – an astonishing £350!!

 

Another big thank you to Mrs Duncan and Mrs McAlpine for coming with us today!

Primary 6 – Screen Printing week 3!

Leave a reply

Wow what a week! We were given a design challenge to create stain-glass window style art using the stencils that Bernie had ready for us. We could figure out they were letters but were not sure what we were going to spell…. after a lot of hard work (and mess!) we all peeled back the tape to find we had the letters to spell B O G H A L L. We carefully carried these outside and tied them to the fence, then stood back to look at what we had created! Thanks again Bernie, Fran, Patrick and Chris!

 

Primary 6 – Screen Printing Week 2!

Week 2 with Patrick, Chris, Fran and Bernie was excellent!

We looked at pictures of Street Art and discussed why some people call it Street Art while others say it is Graffiti – very interesting ideas and opinions! Bernie showed us some of his art that he creates using stencils which was very intricate and complicated to create. He also took us outside for a demonstration of how you layer the different stencils and colours to create an image – the picture he created he gifted to our class which is amazing! Next we created our own alphabet stencils and had fun experimenting with colour and shape as we layered our stencils on our own master pieces. Lastly we collaborated on a large class stencil which we will finish next week…. What a busy and fun filled day!

Screen Printing fun with Primary 6!

Primary 6 were lucky enough to be chosen to help Chris and Patrick with the design and creation of the our new church memorial garden – we don’t want to give away any secrets but we had such a fun morning screen printing with Patrick, Bernie, Fran and Chris that we had to share some of our photos! We will keep you updated with our progress each week!
