Here are the P6 winners of the Commonwealth Games Poster competition. Miss Speirs found it so difficult to pick one winner we got special permission from Game On Scotland to send more entries in. Well done to the winners. A selection of other posters will be on display in the school for everyone to see. The winning posters will be sent to be displayed in the Athletes’ Village for the competitors and officials who stay in Glasgow for the Commonwealth Games this summer.
P6 Weekly Blog
To finish off our Health and Wellbeing topic about Living and Growing, we made Reebop babies. We had to sort out the genetic code for our baby then we had to check what features the baby had and then we had to make our baby. We hope you like them.
P5 Passover
In RME this week we were learning about the Seder meal, the special meal Jewish people have to celebrate Passover. We had a pretend Seder meal in class. We tasted some of the traditional foods which each remind us of part of the Passover story. Matzah (crackers) and Charoset (chopped apple) were yummy, the horse radish was more of a challenge.
Look what came today!
Early bird pupils were able to cheer on the raising of our Green flag as it was put in place first thing this morning! What a fantastic start to our week.
The Eco committee are still working hard on keeping our school recycling systems going, and encouraging everyone to use the litter bins. This month it is Primary 1 and 1/2 turn on the litter picking duty, so we’re sure the playground will be clean and clear.Â
We are also planning an exciting competition which will take place in March. More details will follow, but in the meantime if you have an entertaining talent, keep practicing…
We noticed last week that some of the bulbs planted in the front border are already poking their leaves up to look for the sun, so it won’t be long til spring. Keep your eyes open and let us know if you see anything interesting growing in and around our grounds.

Primary 4 keeping safe online
Primary 4 had a challenge in Health today to create a message using the letters S A F E which would remind us how to stay safe on the Internet. Their safety advice works just as well in real life too.
Here are some of the best examples:
Strangers can be mean
Avoid them
Friends only
Everyone be nice

Safe around strangers
Ask permission to go online
Friends you can trust, but not all the time,
Emotions- don’t let people be mean to you.

Strangers are danger
Ask your Mum and Dad before saying yes
Friendly words
Everyone is dangerous when you don’t know them
By Hannah
Strangers- don’t trust them if you don’t know them

Friends- you need to see if they will be good
Emotions- don’t let them hurt your feelings.
By Samantha and Sophie.

Weekly Blog from P6
This week we have been learning poetry! We were studying the Green man poem and enjoyed making up our own poems. For homework we have been learning Scottish poems for our Scots Assembly. We have also been learning and practising ‘Strip the Willow’ and we hope to perform this at the Scots Assembly. For our Scottish topic we have been learning about Lord Joseph Lister. We have been very busy since we came back from our holidays!
