Hello P3A families,

Here are this week’s highlights from the Red table:

Grace liked learning about Advent and making a paper plate wreathe.  The children learned the meaning behind each of the coloured candles and will watch them being lit each Sunday at mass during Advent.

Abeeha enjoyed taking part in the House Groups this morning where the children worked with others from their House throughout the school to make a postcard that showed how they receive their rights at St John Ogilvie.

Tvisha loved the maths warm up game ‘Counting Cowboys’.  This week as Mrs Brown surprised the children by filling the pistols with water!  You could hear the screams of excitement all over the school!

Tadiwa continued to enjoy bench ball during PE.

Caiden has been enjoying making the art that went up on the school’s door design Christmas competition.  We made a winter woods.  Watch this space!  #P3Atowin!

Jiade said the highlight of his week was practising the dances for our Christmas party!  His favourite was ‘Chu Chu Ua’

Zion liked learning about St Andrew and eating the shortbread and drinking iron bru that Mrs McKissack kindly bought for the children.  They also learned a song that Mrs Brown’s choir sang last week with some old scots language called ‘Coorie in’.  There was much giggling about the word ‘bahookie’ (meaning ‘your bottom’).

My highlight was the singing.  Beautiful!

Congratulations to Caiden, our hot chocolate award winner this week and to Laura, our Reading Champion!

I cannot believe that we are now into December!  3 more weeks of school until we celebrate the birth of Christ and a certain man in a red coat visits!

 

Regards

Mrs Brown
