Seafield Primary School

We have had a fantastic week in P2/3 with lots of festive activities and celebrations.

Tickled Pink

• We had our whole school assembly on Tuesday with Rev Boyd and we enjoyed hearing the brass group playing Jingle Bells, some of them had only been playing for 10 weeks. We also enjoyed seeing P5/6 ‘s video about a modern day twist on the Christmas Story and hearing P6/7 read passages for us. We were able to perform some of our songs from the nativity.
• We played a festive roll the dice game where we made up different stories using different characters , settings and plot cards, we then wrote our own and read them at story time!
• We enjoyed our maths challenges identifying different number combinations of gifts in Santa’s sacks. We made it more challenging by increasing the number of gifts and numbers of sacks.
• We really enjoyed our Festive STEM morning, creating different patterns, zip wire for Santa or a winter wonderland!
• We really enjoyed doing show and tell on Wednesday morning.
• We loved our Christmas Party !
• We loved our trip to the cinema!
• We had an achievement assembly on Friday morning.

• We do need to get better at looking after our class resources when we are doing creative tasks, some pens lost lids and so did some glue sticks.
• We also need to try and keep our work area clear when we are using STEM materials as there was lots on the floor and it is the same few children who help tidy up.

Have a wonderful festive break everyone and we look forward to seeing you back next year on the 5th of January 2026!

There’s nothing quite like a Nativity to spread joy at Christmas time and our children certainly did that this week.  Three fantastic performances for our school community and they thoroughly entertained us all.  We are all incredibly proud of each and every one of our fabulous pupils!

Tickled Pink

• All the efforts learning songs and speaking parts paid off with our three amazing Nativity performances.
• We used a variety of materials including glass beads and Christmas themed stampers to create patterns and make our own Christmas wrapping paper.
• In writing we wrote a recount about The First Christmas.

• We tried to self evaluate our writing and will work on this more next term.

Lead Learner Update

Have a great weekend everyone as we look forward to our Christmas party and cinema trip next week!

Tickled Pink

• We played some Christmas games with Mrs Robertson in PE which was really fun. Our favourite one was Head Elf which is a bit like Wink Murder.
• We completed filming our RME news reports in class and are currently in the process of editing them for next week.
• In maths we started learning coordinates. We were able to make patterns and shapes which turned into pictures.

Green for Growth

• Playground behaviour has not been acceptable this week, we need to show the values at all times.
• Some people need to be a little faster when finishing tasks.

Lead learners this week are Abi and Ellie Mae/

Tickled Pink (things that we feel went well)

• Some of us finished our sketching in Art and we are very proud of what we’ve created. We want all of these to end up on the wall!
• We are all very proud of our Primary 3’s for taking part in their nativity in front of the grown ups! Primary 1-3 were fabulous!
• This week we created our own Newsround’s. We reported on Rainforest Animals and managed to show off the facts we’ve learned!
• We have all been loving using Blooket this week! We use it to practice skills in Literacy and Numeracy!
• We have also been working really hard on our Sumdog challenges! We love having the opportunity to use digital tools!

Green for Growth (things that we need to do to improve our learning)

• We want to work on our listening. Some people are forgetting our classroom expectations so we want to improve this!
• Some of us also need to remember to use kind words with others in and outside of School.

Our value award winners this week for being Ambitious is Lilidh and for being kind is Murren. Well done!

Have a lovely weekend, see you next week!

Primary 6/7 have had a great week with lots of brilliant learning activities in class. On Friday morning, we discussed our week in school and decided that we would like to share these thoughts about our learning this week:

Tickled Pink (things that we feel went well):

• We really enjoyed our Writing lesson this week as we felt that it was fun to start creating a Christmas story for our buddies which we will be able to give them as a present

• We also enjoyed our Maths with Mrs Flynn as it was fun creating board games for our buddies

• Primary 7s really enjoyed their online transition lesson with the focus this week which was linked to RME as it was interesting to learn about the Day of the Dead
• We really enjoyed our RME lesson in class as it was great to learn about advent and to have choice for how to present our learning about advent
• We really enjoyed outdoor learning as we had some choice for our time outside

Green for Growth (things that we need to do to improve our learning)

• Some of us felt that outdoor learning could have been better as not everyone was as responsible as they should have been

• Some of us found it a bit tricky to work out what our Primary 1 buddies would be able to do in Maths when we were making the board games for them
• Some of us were a bit disappointed in PE due to some silly behaviour from several people in our class

Our lead learners were Ben, Henry, Jake and Faith.  They decided on the following three targets for the class; to try not to swing on your chair, to be a good role model and to try to be the best version of yourself. They observed lots of learners in the class meeting those targets which is great news.

Our school value award winners for this week are Niamh and Harvey. Congratulations!

Well done P6/7 for a wonderful, busy week. Have a lovely weekend.

Tickled Pink

• We are getting the hang of multiples and factors in numeracy and are able to find the lowest common multiples and highest common factors with great success.
• In RME we have started planning a Newsround style video about the Nativity as if it happened today. We are using our Meta Skills when working in groups.
• We made some beautiful winter art scenes with Mrs Denholm that uses a vanishing point and one point perspective.

Green for Growth

• We are still sometimes forgetting punctuation when doing writing or literacy.
• We are still working on carrying over the tens when multiplying large sums.

Lead learners this week are Ella and Jack.
