Primary 7 assisted at the school’s annual Scots afternoon for invited visitors from our local community on Monday. They were gracious hosts and represented our school in a mature and respectful manner, as well as piping in the haggis !
All pupils have now been informed of their roles and characters for our senior school and rehearsals will begin in earnest. The subject of our show is gaming, a hobby close to many of our pupils’ hearts, they are keeping the teacher up to speed where necessary!
Your child was given a new identity this week …during our WW2 topic sessions, each pupil was told their new age, which family they belonged to and where they lived. The pupils had to think of a name and create their home or place of work. Using our magical powers we also transported them back to 1939. We will be following the lives of their new characters through the war years.
As you are aware each pupil has a novel to read as part of their homework each week. A plastic wallet was given to each pupil to keep their novel and literacy circle work together. It is imperative that each pupil keeps up the necessary reading so that can fully participate in our reading sessions.
