P1Y Superstars !
We are very proud of our two talented pupils in P1Y. Well done for receiving a trophy for doing amazing balances in your gymnastics class, and for winning a medal for dirt bike riding at Duns.
Toys from the Past
Primary 1 had a special visitor this week from Museum Services.
She brought lots of toys that people played with in the past.
We played with some of the toys and in class we’re trying to make some too!
We talked about the different materials that the old toys were made of.
In class we’re sorting old toys and new toys. We are making a Toy Shop, Toy Museum and a Toy Cafe.
