This morning Primary 1 enjoyed a picnic on the field to celebrate the Queen’s Jubilee.
We made flags and crowns in class and took them out with us. After our picnic we played games, explored the woods and then played with the parachute!
We hope everyone has a lovely long weekend.

On Wednesday morning we were entertained with a silent disco. We danced and sang along in the playground. It was great fun!
Welcome back Primary 1! It was lovely to see you back and hear all about your holidays.
We’ve had a busy start to Term 4. On Wednesday we all took part in a ‘Silent Disco’. It was great fun listening and dancing to the music.
Primary 1 had a great time in our new library with their Buddies. This week our job was to try and recognise tricky words in the books being read together.
We have been learning about Artists called Miro and Mondrian. We talked about the shapes they made and colours they used. We then created our own picture in their style. Some of us even tried to draw animals using the same idea. We then talked about what we thought about their artwork. Most of us preferred Miro, especially if we were creating our own, as his lines are wiggly so easier to draw than Mondrian’s straight lines. We then took our learning outdoors and created chalk drawings in their styles.
Thank you to all who donated to our Red Nose Day collection. We looked amazing all dressed up in our PJ’s.
This week in literacy, we have been practising our sh, ch, th and wh sounds. We have also enjoyed new stories and learned four more Word Boost words to extend our vocabulary. We’re getting very quick at spotting the words in our everyday speech and in other stories too!
We loved meeting our P7 buddies this week in our brand new library and shared lots of interesting books and texts.
We have been practising telling the time to the half hour and also working with numbers to 20. Meanwhile, in science, we had lots of fun finding out about forces when experimenting with cars and ramps.
On Friday we learned about Earth Day in our Assembly and then went outside for word hunt. We had to find pictures and then sound out and write the words. Everyone had fun and worked well as a team.
