Heavy rain has been forecast for tomorrow around the time we are walking to Church, please send the children to school dressed for the weather. As it is the Feast of our Patron Saint on Sunday please join us to celebrate Mass.
Primary 4/5 Titanic
Primary 4/5 enjoyed learning about all the different rooms in the Titanic. We discovered what they were called, what they were used for and who they were used by. Everyone was a little suprised to see how little there was for the 3rd class passengers. We recorded our findings in pairs and now have even more facts for our fact files.
Handball
Well done to our P4/5 and P5 pupils who participated in the recent Handball festivals in the community centre. They represented the school well and had great fun taking part.
Dance
Well done to our dancers! The girls represented the school at Deans Community High School today and were fantastic. They looked great in their new dance hoodies.
Book Fayre
The Scholastic book fayre will be in the GP room this evening during parental consultations and will be available to pupils tomorrow. Order forms can be collected at the fayre this evening.
P4/5 Handball festival
Tomorrow afternoon (Tuesday) Primary 4/5 will be attending the handball festival. The children have been practising during their PE lessons and I am sure they will all do a great job.
What a Week in P4
This week in P4 we have been learning:
- new spelling words using sounds like ‘sh’ and ‘y’
- to join-up our handwriting with words beginning with ‘sl’ and ‘cl’
- to subtract using a number-line
- about how people have communicated in the past and how we communicate today
P5 Handball
Primary 5 participated in the Handball festival today.
They performed brilliantly and worked very well in their teams. The children had a great afternoon and won a number of their games.
Great teamwork and handball skills!
Huge well done to primary 5 today!
Netball
Monday 13th March will be the last training session for the school netball team this term.
A huge well done to the children who represented the netball team at the Whitburn Schools Netball Festival. The team played brilliantly and we finished in second place! Great fun was had by all and we demonstrated super sportsmanship. Go St Joseph’s!!!
Moon Landing
Primary 5 had a fabulous time learning all about space, and in particular, the Moon Landing.
They put all of their knowledge to use and created newspaper articles describing the Moon Landing and enjoyed creating their own headlines.
The effort they put into their reports was excellent and they were all keen to learn more about it.
I am sure you will agree that their display looks lovely.
