It has been a VERY busy term in Primary 6/7 with lots of projects going at the same time. All the pupils have been working very hard with their learning, teamwork and representing our school with excellent manners.
These are Primay 6/7’s top 6 highlights of Term 3:
- Dragon’s Den Project
Our main topic was Dragon’s Den. We had three teams called Golden Flame, Silver Sparks and Pegasus. We made products such as Shape It (a fun family game), name plaques (personalised plaques with a choice of coloured border) and personalised key rings (showing your name and first initial with a choice of colours). All of the teams were very successful and worked very hard. Silver Sparks came 2nd place in the competition between teams from Greenrigg Primary and West Lothian College. - P7 visit to Dalguise
In March a group of Primary 7s went to Dalguise for 5 days and learned a lot about themselves. We took part in activities such as: belaying, how to make a fire, how to build a shelter out of natural resources, going on the zip-wire, rock climbing and abseiling. Most of us enjoyed the giant swing because of the height and speed. It was a really great and successful trip to school camp. - Basketball Festival
In February we went to a Basketball Festival at Whitburn Community Centre. We were up against 4 other schools. There were 3 different courts and we had a team on each court. We came 3rd on Court 1, 2nd on Court 2 and 1st on Court 3. It was AMAZING! - Cross-Country Event
On Tuesday 22nd March we went to Blaeberry Hill Park in Whitburn for the Cross-Country Event. We were up against pupils from 10 different schools from the Whitburn Cluster. We were split into girls and boys for the races. We all received medals for finishing the 1.35km course. - Internet Safety and Bullying Drama Workshop
In February we went to a workshop in school about Internet Safety and Online Bullying. We were learning about Internet Safety by doing a drama with a lady called Lynsey.
Our class worked on 3 scenes then the Primary 5s did 3 scenes as well. We performed our script in front of the whole school and the parents who came in to watch. - 3D Bird Models with Mr Henry
We made 3D birds with Mr Henry by using newspaper as the base. We then covered it in tissue paper then painted it white. We dried it with a hair dryer then painted in again in a colour we chose. The 3D birds stand up on a wooden stand.
