Primary 3/2

This week, Primary 3/2 took part in the Scottish Book Trust’s ‘Authors Live’ event, which featured author Rachel Bright.

We listened to one of her stories, ‘The Koala who Could’ and completed tasks linked to it. We tried to predict what Kevin the Koala was thinking at different points in the story and designed a new home for him. Have a look at some of our work below:

We then participated in the live event where Rachel Bright answered children’s questions, read us her new story ‘Gecko and the Echo’ and illustrator Jim Field taught us how to draw Goldie the Gecko. #effectivecontributors

Check in with us after the holidays to see what we have been learning. Have a good, well-deserved break!

Primary 7 Class Charter

We spent a lot of time considering which articles, from the UN convention of the rights of a child, were most suited to us in school.

We read the articles.

Highlighted the one that applied to us in school/class.

We considered the most important to us.

We then thought how we as Rights Holders could keep these rights and how the adults  as Duty Bearers, can help us maintain our rights.

Primary 3/2

The photographs below show Primary 3/2’s class charter. We looked at children’s rights which affect us at school and linked them to our values of Nurturing, Ambitious and Respectful. We then thought about how our adults or ‘duty bearers’ (Miss McLaughlin & Mrs O’ Neil) could help make sure these rights are met at school. See what we came up with! #effectivecontributors

Check in with us soon to see what else we have been learning!

Primary 7 weekly update

It was lovely to be back with all our friends again.

We started a new Numeracy topic on volume. We have been learning how to read volume scales on beakers and jugs in millilitres and litres, working out problems with volume and we have begun learning how to calculate the volume of cubes and cuboids in cubic centimetres.

In literacy, we watched a short persuasive animation and tried to work out the message it was showing us. We then looked at the different devices the animator used to persuade us and discussed how effective these were.

In art, we started using the new drawing pencils we got at the end of last term. We learned how to draw a realistic mouth.

Have a great weekend everyone.

From Primary 7 and Mrs Andison

Term 4 P.E. Days

Thank you for your support with school uniform and our new approach to P.E. kit.

We would request that on P.E. days children wear to school:

  • white polo shirt/ t-shirt – with school logo or plain or blue school P.E. t-shirt
  • blue sweatshirt/cardigan – with school logo or plain
  • P7 – black sweatshirt/cardigan
  • plain black tracksuit bottoms/ joggers
  • black trainers
  • girls who are wearing a skirt over their leggings can remove their skirt on P.E. days
  • we would recommend that children don’t wear their shirt and tie on their P.E. days

In order to continue with our inclusive ethos and promoting our school identity we would request that children don’t wear branded clothing. We also have nearly new school polo shirts and sweatshirts that can be purchased for a small donation.

On non P.E. days children should wear their normal school uniform (this does not include tracksuit bottoms, leggings – unless with a skirt or jeans).

Term 4 P.E. Days

  • Primary 1 – Mon/Wed
  • Primary 2/1 – Mon/Friday
  • Primary 3/2 – Wed/Fri
  • Primary 4/3 – Mon/ Tues
  • Primary 4 – Mon/Tues
  • Primary 5 – Tues/Wed
  • Primary 6 – Mon/Wed
  • Primary 7 – Mon/Thurs

Thank you for your support with this.
