Primary 4 have been learning all about the digestive system. After discussing all the different stages involved in turning our food into nutrients and energy for our body, we created storyboards to describe the journey a piece of food makes.
Here is a link to the video of the spectacular display given by our Gymnastics club on Feb 14th. The show took our breath away! Well done to the performers and Mrs Pender for all your hard work.
We are very proud of you all.
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.

This week we have been drawing pictures about all of the sports which will feature in the Commonwealth Games which will be held in Glasgow in July. We produced our best work and we hope some will be selected to appear in the athletes village. Next week we will put up some of our finished entries for you to see.
We started our football training with Greg from Broxburn United Football Club. He is helping us all to lead a healthy lifestyle by making sure we eat healthily and take regular excercise. We were doing  sit ups and wall presses to improve our personal fitness. We have been given fitness homework to help us improve our levels of fitness.
This Friday Eilidh, Jamie Lee and Niamh will be taking part in the gymnastics display which will be held at 11.45. Good luck girls!
Primary 3 finished their 5 week course today of football skills with James from Broxburn United Sports Club. During the 5 weeks, primary 3 learned the importance of being healthy and fit and also how important it is to offer encouragement to your team mates. Today all the class received medals to take home for all their hard work over the last few weeks.

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:

This week we have a had a busy week in Primary 5. We started our new topic A Weekend in Pumpherston and Uphall Station.  We had to think of how the land is used in our local area and made a table to show places to work, relax, live and places of interest.  This week we have also been enjoying learning how to play Handball in PE. We have to keep practising as we are going to a Handball Festival in December. We also had a Zumba taster session which was great fun as well as good for our bodies.
