Our House and Vice Captains have created a house chant to say at assembly when they win the house points for the week, or term. They used our new green screen to record the videos and taught them to their Pumphie Pals group.

Today we had our third Fun Time Friday of the school year. Fun Time Friday is an opportunity for all our children to select an activity that they are interested in and take part in it with peers across different classes. We had a range of activities to choose from which the children brainstormed at Pumphie Pals last session.
Mr Povey joined us at assembly this morning to share the message of advent with us. Some of the children helped him to light the advent candles.
Our singing group, organised by Rebecca and Ceira in Primary 7, sang A Million Dreams.

Rebecca and Ceira in P7 have been using their break times to run a singing club. The video below shows one of the songs they have learned and they are going to sing it at assembly on Friday.

L.I. To write a poem.
S.C. I can write an original poem, using Roald Dahl’s work as a model.
As part of our book study of George’s Marvellous Medicine by Roald Dahl, the children have been comparing and contrasting poems by Roald Dahl and William Shakespeare. They analysed the poems to look for alliteration, onomatopoeia, repetition and rhyming patterns, and colour coded each in order to compare and contrast.  Then, using Roald Dahl’s work as a model, they applied the literacy skills they had explored to create their own original poetry.
The children also had fun dressing up for the occasion.
Today we had a Book Week Scotland Assembly to celebrate our learning on the lead up to Book Week Scotland.
Miss Burton read us a passage from The Truth Pixie by Matt Haig, as this is book she enjoys reading.
We looked at some of the photos that children had sent in of them reading in an unusual place. Well done to everyone who sent in a photo!
