Thank you to everyone who came to our assembly about the Victorians. Â We do hope you enjoyed it and that you have learned something about life in Victorian times.
P4 Amphitheatre Update
Our amphitheatre is really starting to take shape now. We have braved the wind, rain and cold and are almost finished the first wall! We have also began proper construction of our stage too (very wet, muddy and dirty – just how we like it :)!). Some of us were very lucky and learned how to cut trees using a handsaw (all fingers still there!).
Whilst digging, we found a LOT of worms. We felt bad about taking them out of their underground homes, so Sarah-Jane helped us to build a wormery. The mini wheelbarrow is also now known as the ‘Wormbulance’. Erin and Ceira are fantastic worm nurses!
Below are our most recent photos…
Check in next time to see how we’re doing!
Until then…

P1/2 Modern Languages Focus
As part of our Modern Languages focus last week, Primary 1/2 were learning how to speak Polish.
One of our P2 pupils Tatiana is from Poland and she was a great teacher, helping the class to learn the Polish words for yes/no, hello/goodbye and cat/dog. Thank you Tatiana!

Sending our thoughts to France
On behalf of the school I contacted our friends at école St Jacques in Roussillon to let them know we held a minute of silence for the people of France.
The teacher replied to thank us. Â She says they too are thinking about the terrible events and the children are asking lots of questions.
They will be in touch again soon.

P4 haben Deutsch gelernen!
Primary 4 are fantastic French speakers, as well as English! So, this week, for our Modern Languages focus, Miss McLaughlin decided to challenge them to learn some German!
We learned how to say hello/goodbye and introduce ourselves.
We focused on learning German names for pets, to match what we had been learning in French lessons. We found that there were some similarities between English, German and French words. Did you know ‘hamster’ is the same in all three languages?
We made flashcards to teach a friend or partner about pets. We are looking forward to sharing our learning with Primary 5 on Tuesday!
Deutsch ist toll!
Auf Wiedersehen! Bis Bald!
