St Nicholas in Primary 1

Today in Primary 1, we have been learning all about our school’s saint: St Nicholas.

Here are some of the things we have learned:

Louvisa – he rescued someone

Thomas – he rescued them from a storm 

Chloe – he made people rich (he was generous) 

Leo – he shared his money

Roman – he left a bag of money for a man 

Matthew (P1b) – the man found the money

Lucas (P1a) – he wants to give money 

All – he was happy

Toby – he wanted to be a bishop 

All – A bishop is like a priest

Primary 1b’s terrific Thursday

Thursday was a very busy day for primary 1b.

We learned all about St Nicholas. He is our school saint.

‘He left pennies for all the people in his village’ – Holly

‘ He saw a poor man who had to sell his daughters, so he gave them money’ – Gabrielle and Freyja

‘He was good as a child too’ Gabriel

‘When he died, he became a saint’ – Liam

 

We had a fun art lesson, making St Nicholas. We think he looks a bit like Santa.

 

We then went outside to practice our numbers. We had fun counting out actions (ie 5 star jumps). We then sat it groups of 2, 3 etc.

We played ‘what’s the time Mr Wolf?’ We really enjoyed this.

Finally we practiced writing our numbers in chalk.

Article 2

The UNCRC belongs to everyone under the age of 18 no matter their race, religion or ability.

The Rights Respecting group have been busy again…  This week we have placed the whole school charter up on display at the front entrance.  After a lot of discussion, the following articles were chosen as the most important and relative in school:

8 The right to an identity, 12 The right to be heard, 19 The right to be protected from being hurt 24 The Right to a clean and safe environment, 28 The right to an education, 29 Your education should develop skills and talents.

The water coming out of the watering cans explains what adults responsibilities will be in order to make sure all children receive these rights and the flowers show the rights respecting actions for the children of St Nicholas to adhere to so they can grow and develop individually.
