Happy Halloween from Primary 6.
We have had another busy week in Primary 6, getting back to work quickly after the holiday.
We celebrated birthdays as well as getting right back to our learning.
We have had a very quick, short week which ended with our Halloween party in which primary 6 were on form, winning games and making the decision of best costume extremely difficult for the judges.
Nurture have had a spook-tacular week as we’ve been getting into the Halloween spirit! 🧡
We’ve been busy making our very own magical chocolate wands 🪄🍫 and creating beautiful pumpkin artwork using autumn leaves. 🍂🎃 We loved getting creative and seeing everyone’s unique designs!
We also enjoyed spending time with our mainstream classes at their Halloween parties, joining in the fun and making some lovely memories together. 👻🕷️
What a fang-tastic week full of creativity, fun and Halloween magic! We hope everyone has a happy and safe Halloween! 🧡🖤
What a spooky week in Ness. Our class indicated they wanted to learn about Pumpkins this week and made this a big part of our learning.
Did you know that pumpkin flesh is used to make a delicious pie? It is a very common treat in America!
Also, did you know the old Celtic practice of carving faces into vegetables to ward off evil spirits spread to the United States with Irish immigrants in the 19th century — and soon jack-o’-lanterns were an iconic part of Halloween celebrations.
We found out, carving pumpkins is very hard work.
But we got there in the end.
By Friday, we were all dressed up and ready for the Halloween Party.
And at the party, we had great fun with our Mainstream friends. A big congratulations to Alex, who won the ‘Best Costume’ for the P5s.
Happy Halloween from this gruesome bunch! Have a great weekend and stay safe!
This week, we began learning about our new writing genre: Information Reports. We discussed what information reports are, explored examples and talked about how they help us learn facts about different topics. We also completed a cold piece of writing on penguins to show what we already know about information reports before we begin developing our new skills.
We were also lucky enough to enjoy a fantastic visit from the pantomime. This year’s show was Robin Hood, and we loved joining in with the songs, cheering for the heroes and booing the villains! Everyone had a wonderful time and there were lots of smiles and laughter throughout the performance.
To celebrate Halloween, we got busy in the classroom making chocolate apples. We carefully dipped apple slices into melted chocolate and added tasty toppings.
They looked amazing and were delicious to eat!
To finish the week we had our Halloween Party. Everyone came dressed in fantastic costumes and there were witches, superheroes, frankensteins, dinosaurs and many more creative outfits. We played games, danced with our friends and had lots of fun together.
We have had a wonderful week full of learning, creativity and celebration. Well done, P2! Enjoy Halloween tomorrow 🎃
LOTS OF EXCITEMENT THIS MORNING AS EVERYONE CAME TO SCHOOL DRESSED UP FOR HALLOWEEN! A GREAT TIME WAS HAD BY ALL!
Primary 1 enjoyed their first school Halloween Party. We had some fabulous costumes, some were very scary!
We had lots of fun playing party games and dancing to Halloween 🎃🧙 music. Some people brought in carved pumpkins 🎃.
During the week we made scary ghost 👻 pictures, we are all very pleased at how scary they turned out.
For outdoor learning we went up to the woods and made scary faces on the ground, we had to make sure they included eyes 👀 a nose 👃 and a mouth. We then had some fun at the park.
During the week we have also enjoyed Halloween 🎃 sensory potion making, we loved mixing and scooping as well as smelling the different mixes.
And last but not least during the week we enjoyed our first school show, It was very funny and we were a great audience.
Have a lovely weekend 😊
We all seemed to have had a great October break holiday and have returned refreshed and ready to learn.
We were treated to a wonderful theatre performance of “Robin Hood” on Wednesday morning where we were a quality audience and were able to demonstrate the school values to our visitors. Well done everyone!
There have been lots of spooky goings on this week in Primary 3. We have been reading some fantastic Halloween stories including, “Room on the Broom”, “Funny Bones” and “Pumpkin Soup”. We have taken part in lots of Halloween activities. We made edible witches wands and super scary mummy biscuits too!
Our week ended with our Halloween Party which was great fun and was enjoyed by all!
Thank you for your fabulous efforts with the children’s costumes.They were amazing!
Welcome back!
We are rested. We are ready!
Back with our friends we have had a lovely couple of days.
We have reignited our reading skills and our number work. Our letter formation is a thing of wonder and our Halloween art…quite majestic!
With only 1 day to the weekend it’s like we’ve never been away!
P7 are happy to be back and ready for the new term.
We are delighted that we were all successful in our Prefect interviews and we have all been assigned our Prefect jobs. Well done everyone!
In our class we love reading. We read for enjoyment, we all love our class novel Holes.
Narwin – I love the twists and turns that take place in the story and it is really funny.
Katie – It is very interesting with lots happening, the adults are bullies in the story.
Evie – It is a nice story, I like the friendship between Stanley and Zero.
David – The Warden and Mr Sir are very mean.
We also enjoy our group reading time. We especially enjoy discussing the story and making predictions.
We were very lucky to get the chance to watch a Panto this week too! Robin Hood was very funny and we loved the music and we had a good dance along with the show.
