Thursday chick update

Nearly all of the chicks are hatched ,there are only 4 more eggs to hatch. Today we helped to clean the brooder and we held the chicks and they where chirping. They were very happy to see us and were comfortable enough to fall asleeep as we held them, a part from Allison’s who was a bit jumpy. We think they are very cute and fluffy.

Wednesday Chick Watch!

Our first chick hatched last night and we are trying to think of a name for it.Can you help us please! The chick is starting to become fluffy and is a light yellow colour. One of the eggs has got a  crack  in the shell so it may hatch over night. If you want to see the chicks tonight go on to Glow at home.

Snow day p7

Remember your snow packs. In case the dog has eaten them or they have been stolen by some monster in your room, you can:

  • Write a snow day diary
  • Plan your ideal igloo using perimeter and area
  • Write a snow day adventure story
  • Learn your lines and song words for Oliver
  • Build something in the snow and take a picture to show or add to here.

Hopefully see you tomorrow.

Our chicks have arrived!

Our 11 chick eggs arrived safely yesterday and are currently snuggled up in their incubator at the front office.

The programme designed by Living Eggs (see www.livingeggs.co.uk for more information) aims to promote awe and wonder across the curriculum at all levels. Over the next two weeks the children from nursery to primary 7 will be learning about the life cycle of a chicken by a variety of class work and will provide the children an opportunity to see chicks actually hatching from their eggs.

By next week the chicks will be old enough to be held and handling sessions will be made available to children during school hours and to parents during Parents’ Evening. If you can’t wait until then, or you would like to follow the progress and watch the chicks hatch LIVE! a link is available through our Glow page. You will find a tab on the main page called “LIVE Chicken Hatching”.

We would like to thank the PTA for donating money to the school and making this exciting school project possible.

Comic Relief

Well done and thank you to all the pupils who donated money towards Comic Relief 2013.
This year we came into school wearing red clothes, joined in with the official Comic Relief song and dance at assembly and spent the whole day wearing our red noses! It was a relief to take them off at the end of the day.

Our rough total so far is £140 but we are still counting the money and will let you know of our final total soon.

Thank you again!

Euro Quiz 2013

Congratulations to our P6 Euro Quiz team, Elliot, Alison, Elena and Jodie, who competed at this year’s competition.

The team scored 42 out of a maximum 60 points on the day, placing them in 8th equal place. The scoring was very close with just a few points between the schools who placed ahead of our team, i.e. 43, 44, 46, so very well done to the pupils in what was a very challenging quiz.

The P6 team will be holding revision sessions for P5 pupils later this year to help them train for next year’s competition. If you would like to be part of the team, start revising now!

Snow Day 2013

Well everyone, it’s a bit later than we may have expected but 2013 has seen its first snow day. Hopefully everyone will have a safe day. Don’t forget there are activities to keep you busy on GLOW and the school blog. Perhaps you could visit your class page and leave a comment on what you have been doing today. Or even better, email the school a photo and we will upload it to GLOW for everyone else to see.
