Primary 2 become Toymakers!
As part of our Toys topic, Primary 2 have been very busy designing and making their own toys. They worked collaboratively, in groups of 3, to carefully design their toys before making them, using household junk.
What a fun (and messy) day!!
Space
Primary 5 have started their journey into space through their topic. We have discussed what we already know and what we would like to know. We added this to our floorbook and we can’t wait to add lots more information and facts to it as we go along.
What we know:
- space has no gravity
- Neil Armstrong was the first man on the Moon
- there are craters on the Moon
- there are 8 planets
- the Earth was made by the Big Bang.
What we want to know:
- what are the planets made of?
- more about all the planets
- can we live on Mars?
- when is the next eclipse?
- Are there more than 2 galaxies?
- How hot is the Sun?
- How big is the Sun?
- Why are there craters on the Moon?
We can’t wait to share what we learn about space with you.
Gliding into the New Year.
Primary 5 would just like to wish everyone a happy New year and we hope that you all enjoyed your break over the festive period.
Primary 5 have been sharing their stories about Christmas with each other and even managed to write a recount of Christmas day.
They have also been looking forward to another fun- filled and jam packed term and have been busy creating targets for their curricular areas that they would like to work on and have already managed to get a new display up in class.
We are looking forward to sharing all of our activities and news with you over the coming term.
New Skills in Primary 2
Happy New year from Primary 2.
Today in PE we practised lots of different skills such as running, aiming, balancing, skipping and ball skills.
Lauchlan explained to us that he had never tried skipping before but with a lot of hard work and determination, by the end of the lesson he was beginning to skip independently! Well done, Lauchlan!
Happy New Year and best wishes for 2017 from the pupils and staff of St Joseph’s Primary School
Happy New Year!
Primary 1 started off the new year with a bang! They worked so hard on their Elkonin boards building words using phonemes and we practised reading some common words. This is going to be a super term with lots of learning and fun!
Merry Christmas
Primary 5 have been getting into the Christmas spirit again and have created lovely snow globes with snowmen in them.
We would just like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas
The pupils and staff of St Joseph’s Primary would like to thank our parents and community for their support during the festive season events. It has been a very busy and exciting time. We wish you a happy and peaceful Christmas and look forward to an exciting New Year.
