Pupils in P7S enjoyed their Christmas lunch today! We were signing along to the music and some of us even chose to sing karaoke and tell jokes using the school microphone.

Afterwards we enjoyed making Christmas crafts in class while listening to music. We are having a lovely afternoon in class!

Primary 7S pupils had a very busy day today!

Some of us went along to West Calder High School to learn how to make a spatula With Dr. Cherry as part of our transition, we had great fun although felt a bit apprehensive walking into the high school as we could see older pupils in their classrooms.

We were all learning to write a balanced argument in class and chose our subject area ensuring we were following the success criteria of writing in the third person, creating an introduction and making sure we had paragraphs detailing the pros and cons before concluding our work with our own opinion. We enjoyed including some research into our work by using ICT to enhance our knowledge.

The fire service were back in to see us this afternoon and worked with some pupils in our class to teach emergency first aid skills. All P7 pupils in our school have now had emergency first aid training so they will be prepared in any emergency situation.

Well done for a great day today P7, I am looking forward to what tomorrow brings. Remember you can wear your Christmas PJs to raise money for the charity Save the Children.

This week we enjoyed using our school library to research Scottish Inventors and complete our biographies which will be displayed in the wall in our classroom. Group 2 enjoyed working with Dr Cherry on a technology project as part of our transition, we were trying to draw lines without rulers to make shapes. Some pupils in P7 worked with Firefighters learning important life saving skills, ask us about this at home and we can teach you how to perform CPR. The Firefighters are returning next week to work with the pupils who did not have the opportunity this week, I know they are very excited to use the props to practise their life saving skills.
