Primary 6/7 enjoyed sharing their learning at the assembly last week.  It was also great to have parents in class to see our great work and learning.  Here are some pictures of our work.

We have been learning about:

-rich a poor families in Tudor times

-Henry VII and his six wives

-the use of the Coat of Arms in Tudor times (and designed our own)

Primary 1/2 have made some Viking necklaces.
Ruaridh said, “First we made beads from clay.”
Isaac said, “Then we painted them.”
Ross said, “I liked that we had a choice of colours to choose from when we were threading our beads.”
Layla said, “I like the gold colour.”
Quinn said, “I liked to put the beads in the Viking onion paint.”
Alison said, “I liked learning to thread the beads.”
Cameron said, “I liked painting with the gold colour.”
Libby said, “I like that we get to take the necklaces home.”

We are presenting Roman talks that we researched at home.

We are also making Roman shields that are red, gold,silver, bronze and white.

We are also making persuasive Roman Army posters.

Did you know that Vikings made paint from onion skin? Primary 1/2 made their own Viking onion paint and used it to colour the beads they made.

Dear Parent/Carer,

To mark Red Nose day in Torphichen Primary School on Friday the 24^th March we (The Pupil Council) have come up with the idea of a bake sale.

To assist with this we would like to invite pupils and parents to bring in a donation of home baking on Thursday 23^rd March and handed into Mr Turnbull in P4/5.

The bake sale will run Thursday 23^rd March at break and lunch and Friday 24^th at break time.

Also, on the run up to Red Nose day we will be selling Red Nose day merchandise.

We have also set a ‘wear red for red nose’ theme and invite pupils to dress in red on Friday 24^th March.

Yours sincerely,

The Pupil Council
