We designed a class advent calendar.

We had a great visit to the library with P2/1. We looked at books and listened to stories.

We have been counting the sides of different types of 2D and 3D objects.

• We have been thinking about the kindness of others and the ways we can be kind.
• We made penguin winter pictures using paper and glue.
• We made little Maisie cats for our Scottish Book week door display. We used small pieces of paper, paint and glue to create the finished Maisies.
• We have been learning about hot and cold lands and the animals that live in these places.

After a busy week in P3/2 we have been:
•       developing our skills in addition, subtraction and division within numeracy as well as sorting number, shapes and items using Venn and Carroll diagrams.
•       working on alphabetical order
•       counting in French and learning the days of the week for our class calendar
•       decorating our classroom door to the theme of Peter Pan for Scottish Book Week. We worked in groups to sketch, colour and paint the main characters and setting for our Neverland scene. Pictures to follow!

•       learning all about weather for our new topic. We can describe the processes involved in the water cycle.

Well it has been very exciting for Primary 7 as we have been learning about Propaganda and how to pick out key VCOP from our text.

We had a bery interesting and factual handling session.  We learned all about home life and clothes during World War One.  We also learned about a young boy called William Angus, he was 10 when the Great War started and during the war he kept a scrap book that has passed through his family now for many years.

Mrs Liddell helped us to learn some amazing information and we really feel more knowledgeable about what war was like.  We have been invited to create our own scrap book page and will become part of history along with many other local primary schools.

We enjoyed the Primary 4 assembly about bullying, it was very detailed and great that the whole school was involved by sharing their views on bullying.  Well done to Primary 4 and Mr Benyon for organising.

Have a great weekend!!

• We have been practicing our assembly this week and we did a fantastic performance today.

Thank you to all the parents and carers who came along to our classroom today. We enjoyed showing you what we have been learning so far in P2.

Not long now until your little cherubs return home…1 more sleep!

Try to relax and enjoy the peace and quiet if you can as you are going to have a mountain of clothes washing to do very soon!!!!

Sorry for the late post – tried to write this from home last night and thought it had posted!

Got a text from staff last night just before 10pm to let us know that everyone had a brilliant first day and that all the light were now off in the rooms as everyone was exhausted and ready to recharge their batteries.

They have had another fun packed day and will be out and about taking part in their afternoon activities.

Staff are taking and sending photographs, however we are only receiving some of these as the 3G signal is not great out in the middle of Perthshire! We will try to post these photographs when they arrive.
