End of term Primary 1 & Primary 7

Today we had a end of term garden party with our buddies ๐Ÿฅฐ

We enjoyed cooking hotdogs and sโ€™mores over the fire pit. Over the past year we have all enjoyed spending time together, we have had lots of learning and lots of fun together.

Today was our final fun time together and we had a ball. The sun โ˜€๏ธ was shining, we had music ๐ŸŽถ and dancing ๐Ÿ’ƒ ๐Ÿ•บ as well as cooking our food.
Primary 1 would like to thank Primary 7 for being fabulous buddies throughout our first year at school and we wish them lots of success at high school, we will miss you all!

Primary 1S

This week in Primary 1S we have been very busy ๐Ÿ˜€

At the start of the week we made bird ๐Ÿฆ feeders. We mixed lard with seeds and dried out mealworms. We had lots of fun mixing these up and are looking forward to watching the birds enjoy them.

We also enjoyed some buddy time, we played online story sequence games. We had to carefully think about the storyline and the characters. The story we were sequencing was Jack and the Beanstalk. We all did very well, and we are all a bit competitive ๐Ÿ˜‰

Our maths focus has been Time. We have been learning what the big and small hands mean on the clock โฐ Oโ€™Clock and Half Past โฐ . We have played games, we have made our own clocks and used the learning clocks in class.

On Thursday we went up the woods with our Primary 7 buddies. We worked together to create Fairy ๐Ÿงš houses in the woods. We had to think about what a Fairy ๐Ÿงš would want in a house and balance lots of things.

We have had a lovely week in school.

Primary1S

This week we hosted our very first assembly. We have all learned so much this year and we we excited to share our journey with our school family as well as some grown ups from home.

We have enjoyed some time planting in the school grounds with our buddies this week.
We love Buddy time, reading with our P7 buddies and completing activities together. We watered plants, weeded some areas and planted some wild flower seeds, we hope that after the summer the have grown.

This week we had a great afternoon at our school careers fair. We got to speak to lots of different people who do different jobs.

Joseph – My favourite was the zoo man.

Keeva – I liked the make up lady best.

James – I want to be a fireman ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿš’ when I am big.

Jude – The best bit was my Judo master was there!

During art this week we made castles with our handprints. We had lots of fun painting our hands and mixing the colours. We then cut out triangles to make the top of our towers. We love art and are looking forward to bringing them home๐Ÿ˜€

On Thursday we did some planting in class. We have planted cress ๐ŸŒฑ seeds and ๐Ÿฅ• carrots. We are going to look after the carrots in class for a bit and then plant them in the school garden.

On Friday we enjoyed the Big Breakfast and Sharing our Learning. Lots of grown ups came into class and we showed them how to play maths games on the class iPads.

Have a lovely weekend ๐Ÿฅฐ

Another short but busy week in school for Primary 1S.

On Tuesday we made the most of the weather and had our Buddy time in the park. We took our books to the park and read them to our buddies before getting time to play together in the park.

We had a lovely Yoga session this week. We were all very respectful and followed the instructions well.

In maths we have moved onto shape and we are doing very well๐Ÿ˜€ We enjoyed lots of numeracy activity on national numeracy day. We played maths games, made towers with the bricks and thought about what we will need numbers for when we are grown ups.๐ŸŸข๐ŸŸง๐Ÿ”บ๐Ÿ”ท
