Sports Day 2016
Thank you to everyone who helped to organise, participated in and supported our Sports Day on Friday. Unfortunately our races had to be cancelled due to the field still being wet and then it rained too! We were able to have our Potted Sports in the playground. There were 9 stations that teams went around. It was great to see the teams of pupils from P1-7 help each other and cheer each other on. Unfortunately the midges also decided to visit us which was inconvenient but it didn’t dampen the kids spirits! Teams were all working together to get as many House Points for their Houses. The winners will be announced at our Celebration Assembly on Monday.
Animation P4 group
The P3s were on a trip today so the P4 boys had a day of experiments and challenges. One of our activities was animation. First we had to make our own playdough. We made a special kind using cornflour and conditioner which was silky smooth and smelt lovely. We then put this into balloons to make our characters. We planned what we wanted to do in our animation. We knew it had to be lots of little movements and photographs so it was best to keep it simple. Here is Leland’s animation clip.
Nursery Trip to Five Sisters Zoo
Here are some of the pictures from the Five sister Zoo trip. Hope you all enjoyed yourselves.
P2 football
On Friday, Alasdair, Adam and Luca played in a football match to raise money for new football strips. Adam scored 3 goals, Alasdair and Luca scored 1 goal each.  The final score was 5-1 to their team and the boys were presented with medals by Ms Benson. Well done to everyone who took part in the fundraising event!

Healthy wraps
Today we made healthy wraps as part of Health week.
We discussed why it was important to try and eat healthy foods.
We had different things we could put in it:
- tomatoes
- cucumber
- ham
- chicken or turkey
- cheese
- mayonnaise
We really liked making and eating our wraps.
” I liked eating it” – Elise.
” My wrap had lots of tomatoes and cucumber in it. ” – Eeman.
” My wrap had mayonnaise in it which made the cheese soggy” – Morgan.
Some of us tried new things in our wraps too.
” I tried lettuce. I really liked it” – Rafael
We are hoping we can make them again and try and make them at home too.
Ava’s medal
Ava was very pleased she won a medal at the Gala Day football competition.
Well done Ava!
