The upper school classes were lucky enough to receive a visit today from Rong Rong MacLeod. Rong Rong was in to teach us all about Chinese New Year and Chinese culture.  We got to make Chinese New Year cards, money envelopes, calendars and Chinese lanterns. Rong Rong also played the Pipa for us and we performed a lantern dance! Thank you Rong Rong for a lovely day!

Primary 5/4 news

This week we have been; buying red noses (a lot), enjoying Judo taster sessions (so much fun), talking about World Book Day and sharing our favorite stories, finding out more about King Henry VIII, litter picking in the playground, practicing singing  for our Easter Service, learning about fractions in our maths, learning about proper nouns in our writing and practicing for the Handball Festival next week.

 

Thank you to all the parents who have been sending pounds in for Red Nose Day, we made a graph out of ours to show the most popular noses.
