Well done to Blazej who successfully picked our hidden square.

Thanks to everyone who took part in our Egg Decorating and Easter Pixelated Art competitions. Mr Martin had a very difficult job but eventually decided on our winners.

Our Egg Decorating winner was Bradon in P3.

Our runners up were Priya (P3) and Farrah (P5).

Our Pixelated Art winner was Amelia (P5)

Congratulations and a huge “Thank you” to everyone who took part.

Here are some of the children with their certificates and a few of the fabulous eggs.

If we missed anyone, don’t worry you’ll get your certificate tomorrow.

All eggs are being proudly displayed outside the school office and will be returned to their owners on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Thanks for participating.

Quick reminder that our hard boiled egg decorating competition will be judged on Monday.

Please bring your egg plus £1 up to P5’s class on Monday morning.

All entries for the Pixelated Easter Art Competition are also due on Monday.

Both winners will be announced on Monday afternoon.

Good Luck!

Today our P5 class visited the Scottish National Portrait Gallery and were asked the question, ‘Does a portrait need a face?’

Mrs Wards’ group visited the library first.

After discussing portraits and looking at some examples in the Library we went into the gallery and looked at some modern portraits.

The Three Oncologists’ painting was fascinating.

Our final task was to describe a portrait painting to our partner and then ask them to draw it. This was great fun!

Thank you very much to the staff at the gallery who looked after us so well.

Wow! How fantastic do these look?

P5 are getting their bunting ready for Spanish Week next week.

The children have taken responsibility for their own learning and given Mrs Wards a (long) list of topics they want to cover and things they want to learn about.

PHEW! it’s going to be a busy week!

 

Well done to the boys and girls from P5 who took part in today’s Handball Festival.

Our four teams won 11 out of their 16 matches! WOW!!!!

As always they behaved impeccably, displayed excellent teamwork and supported each other. They also took responsibility for organising their teams and substitutes to ensure that everyone got a turn.

Today, P4 went to visit the Kelpies. We found out lots about the sculpture and had lots of fun in Helix park

.

We have been learning:

• about quarters and halves of shapes
• to compete in an egg rolling contest
• to prepare for a public performance
• to work together with our P6 friends to complete a school survey
