Primary 7/6 have been very creative this term painting and creating their pictures for the flower show. We were inspired by the artist called Steven Brown who creates paintings of Highland cows called McCoos. We sent our pictures to him and he messaged back saying

“Wow, amazing. Really talented pupils you have. I love that my art makes people smile.”

“To your pupils, continue to go for your dreams. I would never have thought I would have achieved my dream if you had asked me, I am thankful that I persisted and that my artwork means so much to many.”

The pupils are desperate to get these home, they are up in the classroom just now and I will send them home for the October break.

This is Steven’s first Highland cow he painted called Harris McCoo.

This term so far we have been writing persuasively for house captains and head boy and girl. We have begun thinking about our topic World War II. We have been learning some multiplication strategies. In PE we have been learning netball and bench ball/handball. Some of the Primary 7s and 6s will be attending the school Netball, Football or Handball festivals.
