P5 have been hard at work as we head into the latter stages of the spring term.  How can that be?

We had some incredible entries for the Burns Competition at the beginning of February and are proud to say that the overall winner was one of ours!

Could that possible be blue sky?  Outdoor learning has become a lot more enjoyable this week with a bit of sunshine on our faces.  Miss Nelson prepared a drama activity this week.

As part of our work to retain our green flag, we had an eco hour last week where we couldn’t use any electricity or technology for an hour.  We actually enjoyed those big lights being off! We designed logos for our uniform swap shop during this time.

This week, we enjoyed some World Book Day shenanigans.  We created a makeshift den and mapped out our favourite story settings.  We took part in a book treasure hunt, created playlists for our favourite characters and wanted posters for our favourite villains.

Have a great weekend!

January has gone in a flash.  It’s been a busy month, filled with fun and new learning.

A lesson that was particularly enjoyed by P5 was our narrative about a wee Scottish Mouse.  We enjoyed listening to the Robert Burns poem and added our own elements to the story.  Next week is our Scots Poetry Competition.  Finalists will be chosen on Wednesday and the performance will be Friday.  Have a great weekend.

Some pictures from our recent drumming performance with Resilient Rhythms.   We thoroughly enjoyed our time with them.  Thank you to those of you that were able to attend.

It has been a busy but quick term.  P5 have worked so hard and are looking forward to a well deserved rest. Merry Christmas to you all and happy new year when it comes.

We took part in class presentations this week. There were a few nerves but I was absolutely blown away by the information that was shared, the confidence our P5s had and their natural ability to engage an audience. I think there are some future leaders among us! Well done P5!
