Learning & Teaching at PUSCPS
Children received a letter in their bags last week, please sign up to 3 of our workshops and come along and join us.
Primary 1
It has been short but busy week for P1. They have been rehearsing for a very special assembly next month. Making invitations was our first job so that we had an audience. They had to write down all the important information an invitation needs and then design the cover. They will be ready to come home on Monday!
Mrs McJimpsey and Mrs Hardie had an exciting call on Wednesday after school. The man said that he had heard Primary 1 are learning about how different living things grow and how to care for them. He would like to give us some eggs to look after in our classroom. We shared ideas about what might be inside. Here are some ideas:
- Ducklings
- Dragons
- Flowers
- Chocolates
- Chicks
- Seeds
- Beach balls
The eggs will arrive on Monday and we can investigate further!
