P4/5
Primary 4/5 worked together with their shoulder partner and used their problem solving skills to investigate who stole Mrs Claus’ Christmas pudding.
P4/5 Dear Mrs Claus…
Primary 4/5 were inspired by the 2016 M&S advert featuring Mrs Claus https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5QPXhStb5I. We discussed the importance of thinking of others at Christmas. Everyone thought about someone they would like to send a present to and wrote a letter to Mrs Clause asking for a very special gift.

Christmas Baubles
Primary 5 have been designing Christmas baubles. They each got a quarter of a bauble and were asked to design it. They enjoyed the activity and put a lot of effort into their designs.
They were then put together to form a whole bauble and look fab!
A special visitor arrives….
What a lovely surprise for all the boys and girls!!
Party time in P1, P1/2 and P2
We all had so much fun at our Christmas party. We danced, played games, ate yummy party food and we even had a special visit from……….SANTA!!!!
Nativity Time!!
Primary 2 were raring to go on Thursday morning for their final Nativity performance!
All children were fabulous and we were incredibly proud of them!
A Minion Reasons to Enjoy Christmas
Primary 5 have been busy with lots of Christmas activities over the past week. We have been discussing what Christmas is about and what it means to us. Through our discussion we thought about the importance of Christmas and what we most enjoy about it. We came up with lots of lovely ideas and wanted to share them.
The pupils then designed their own minion (Christmas themed of course!!) and then we created a display, which we will be adding to.
We hope you enjoy having a look at them as much as we enjoyed making our display
My Week in P7
Maths
This week in maths I have been learning about different types of charts. I think I could learn a bit more about them though. I learned about pie charts and graphs and how to solve problems to do with graphs.
Literacy
This week in literacy we were looking at autobiography and biography texts. We looked at parts of Roald Dahl’s life story from his autobiography ‘Boy’ . To finish the topic off we wrote our very own autobiography about our experiences at the St. Joseph’s Christmas show this year called Cinderella, Rockerfella.
The show
Another thing that we did this week was performed our Christmas show Cinderella, Rockerfella. It was a huge success and all the rehearsals paid off. I was part of the talent act and I played violin.
It has been a great week!

The Magic Castle
Primary 6W have worked very hard on their homework projects creating different types of castles. They also made up fact files and power points about Concentric, Stone Keep and Motte and Bailey Castles. They then presented them to the rest of the class.
We can’t wait to start the Magic Castle topic in January!
