It has been lovely to see everyone back after the Easter holidays. It has been a busy learning week in the class and everyone has worked so hard – well done!

In Maths, we have been continuing on with our learning about decimals. The Tetrahedrons group can now confidently add, subtract, multiply and divide decimals. Next week this group will be moving on to learning about percentages. The Squares & Circles groups have been concentrating on adding decimals where the sum has contained carrying and subtracting decimals where the sum contains borrowing. Next week they will be using their tables knowledge to multiply decimals.

Over the course of this term we are going to be learning about a variety of world religions. This week our focus has been on the religion of Hinduism. We learned about the different stories related to the religion such as the Story of Ganesh and the Story of Rama and Sita. Our learning activities in other curricular areas have been linked to our learning about Hinduism. At the end of the week, the class then created some Rangoli patterns which Hindus use to welcome visitors to their houses during the festival of Diwali.

P7s are very excited about their trip to Kingswood Camp next week and are looking forward to all of the activities. Non-campers are looking forward to a variety of cluster activities.

P6 children who are attending Broomlee are welcome to attend a short information meeting on Monday 16th April at 3.30pm.

Have a lovely weekend 🙂
