Primary 7 Learning Letter- Term 1

Dear Parent/Carer,
Welcome to Term 1 in Primary 7. After a different and challenging few months, I hope you have all had a relaxing summer and are now feeling refreshed.  We are so excited to welcome all of our children back into school and are looking forward to finding our ‘new normal.’ This term, we will be working together on building a classroom community and extending this throughout the school. Some of our P7s will be excitedly preparing for our upcoming House Captain elections and will be encouraged to demonstrate all of our school values in this process. Although this will be a slightly different year, we are very excited to embrace all of the new responsibilities and challenges that come with being a Primary 7!

The Upper Area Will Rock You!

Don’t Stop Us Now- we’re having such a good time!

This term, Primary 7, 7/6 and 6 have been working extremely hard to prepare for their upcoming show, Schools Will Rock You, and it’s guaranteed to blow your mind!!

Our amazing pupils have been busy learning songs, memorising scripts, creating posters and tickets, selecting scenery, writing letters, designing programmes, counting money raised, researching costumes, making and sourcing props, and much, much more!

Not only have we been enhancing our drama and musical abilities, we have also been learning skills for life, learning and work like budgeting, emailing, teamwork, choreography, digital designs, fundraising and advertising.

The teachers have been blown away by the enthusiasm, dedication and talent our children have already shown in the rehearsal/preparation process, and we cannot wait to see the faces of our audience when they see our champions both onstage and behind the scenes. It will send shivers down your spine….

Outdoor Art with P7/6

This term, P7/6 have enjoyed creating artwork inspired by Andy Goldsworthy. We spent time researching and discussing the shapes, colours and materials that he uses in his work. We then spent time in the school grounds looking at the resources available to us. We planned how we might use natural materials to incorporate art techniques such as blending colour. Thinking about the seasons, we were able to layer autumnal colours to great effect. The children were very proud of their efforts. Here are the results:
