Another jam packed week in P7a.
This week we started our Christmas preparations. In RME we talked about the Christian story of Christmas and the children discussed some tricky questions such as “what would have happened if Joseph did not stand by Mary?”, “what gifts would we bring such a special baby today?” and “would you follow a star?”. Interesting discussions indeed.
Within democracy our parties are in the midst of recording their broadcasts ready for our election on Tuesday. The manifestos and campaigns are complete, who will win the vote of the school?
Thursday saw the last of our skiing lessons. What a fabulous opportunity for us all, with everyone overcoming fears and pushing themselves out of their comfort zone (especially Mrs Gordon ). As the children got braver, Mrs Gordon became more afraid!
Lots of singing this week too, with our preparations for our Carol Concert on Tuesday and Scottish Opera. The Tale O’ Tam O’ Shanter is coming along well for our performance on the 23rd January 2017.
