P6/5 have worked hard this week on our maths topic of ‘measure’. We discussed different units of measurement and worked on converting between metres, centimetres and millimetres. We took our learning outside where we had to measure natural objects.

Primary 6/5 have been learning all about Ramadan the last few weeks in preparation for our upcoming Ramadan assembly. We have been learning about when Ramadan takes place and why Muslims celebrate Ramadan and how they celebrate. One of our class members brought in some prayer mats and the Qu’ran for us to have a look at which was wonderful to see!

P6/5 thoroughly enjoyed our outdoor learning session this week. We went to the woodland area behind the school and our first task was to find and identify different types of plants and trees using the branches and leaves. Next we had to build a den using team work and our communication skills. Before heading back to school we measured the average age and height of trees using our counting and measuring skills.

P6/5 worked with Xcite during PE this week to develop our skills in tennis. We practiced under arm throws and striking the ball with the racket. We all had a great time and cant wait for the next session!

P6/5 thoroughly enjoyed their second session with Jen from Voice Rocks. Jen taught us how to sing Beautiful Things by Benson Boone and we even had some volunteers to do some solos!
