We also deisgned and made our own sweets out of clay! In maths we have been working very hard on counting on and back in 5s and 10s!

A short but busy week in primary 3! We have been learning more about symmetry and this week we created symmetrical pictures using paints! We also had so much fun with our topic this week where we got to design our very own sweet – we can’t wait to make them with clay next week! We also looked at ‘World Peace Day’ and talked about what peace means to us – we had some very good discussions on it! Tooday is also Genes for Jeans day! We have all came in our jeans and brought a donation for this worth while cause!
Update of RRSA
We have been very busy in school completing RRSA work! Here is an update of what we have been doing!
In school we have been very busy making our classroom charters that display rights that we think are important.
We have also been learning about special articles like Article 19- ‘All children have the right to be protected from any harm.’ We think this is very important.
Each class have been raising money for peanut paste, just £22.50 can supply a starving child for one month with peanut paste.
We will also be puting up playground charters to be safe in the playground and respect other peoples rights. We have been inventing the perfect teacher in our school topic ‘Every child needs a Teacher’ to raise awareness that some children in the world don’t have a teacher.
Finally we need parents to help us plan and organise fundraising events! Soon there will be a sheet in the school where you can sign up to help! The RRSA club will be having an assembly soon.
We will keep you posted with more updates.
Primary 3 – weekend 13th September
Another busy week in primary 3! We have completed lots of topic work this week where we looked at 4 main characters from the book, Mr Wonka, Charlie, Grandpa Jo and the Oompa Loompas! In maths, we went outside to take pictures of objects that were symmeterical, we had a lot of fun and found lots of symmertrical objects! We are also trying hard to beat our scores in Big Maths! Some of us are very close at getting 40/40! We enjoyed seeing Ian again today from the credit union, where he showed us some amazing magic tricks and encouraged to join the credit union!
Primary 3 – week ending 6th September
Lots of exciting things happening in primary 3! We are just loving our Charlie and the Chocolate Factory topic, we have drew pictures of different characters, written a short story about them and also designed our very own Wonka bars! Miss McKenna has hidden a golden ticket inside one of these bars and we can’t wait to try and find it! If we find it we will get a treat from the treat box!
We have also been working very hard to count in 2s starting from an odd number and at home we have been busy learning our times tables! We have also been experimenting with different shapes and learning about symmetry.

Another busy week in primary 3! We have started our new topic ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’ and can’t wait to complete different activities and tasks! We are also beginning to learn our times tables and are going to be tested every week!

This week we had a very special visit from Mrs Purdie, she did an art lesson with us and we all made amazing pictures of the Forth Road Bridge – it was brilliant! We are all really looking forward to our very last week and can’t wait for Sports Day, T in the playground and looking forward to hearing who is the winning house!

A very busy and fun week! We had a great treat on Tuesday where we got to watch the dress rehearsal of ‘Bugsy Malone.’ The P5 – P7 pupils did great and we know that mums and dads are going to love it! On Thursday we were very ‘eco friendly’ and helped West Lothian Council to pick up litter, we had great fun doing this and worked hard to clean up the park in Fauldhouse! Within our topic this week we have been hearing the story of Greyfriars Bobby, we just love it! It’s a very special day on Sunday and we all made lovely Father’s Day cards which we’re sure our Dads will all love!

Another busy week in primary 3…we have been working very hard on our Scottish Topic, we had fun on Thursday looking at lots of different Scottish instruments, our favourites are the bagpipes, fiddles and the drums! We had fun last night at ‘Danger Night’, we love the shows being in town! We are taking advantage of all this beautiful weather and have been enjoying our PE outside! Talking about the sun, we have had lots of chats about being ‘summer safe’ and have got stickers for all our hard work! Primary 5 had their assembly today on the ‘Scottish Wars of independence’ it was amazing!
