Primary 1 began the week learning about Chinese New Year and how it is celebrated. We learned that in the run up to New Year, people decorate their houses and that as part of the celebrations, children are given red envelopes with money inside. We made our own lanterns and red envelopes.
We also took part in the Scots assembly where we sang two Scottish songs – Mairi’s Wedding and Rammie in the Chip Shop. Our two Scots poem winners also performed “Mince and Tatties” in front of the school and P4 parents/carers.
Continuing our topic, P1 also designed a kilt for Katie Morag and enjoyed learning some Scottish dancing in the hall.
