A short week round up for Primary 7

It has been a quick week in Primary 7.  We would like to start by thanking everyone who attended ‘Rock for Camp’ last week.  We raised over £900.  Thank you to the parent council members who supported us with this, your help and advice was really appreciated.  We hope everyone had as much fun as we did.  Well done to the winners of the games and raffles.

We have also welcomed some very hungry visitors this week.  We have been learning about life cycles.  we have planted seeds and are now looking at the life cycles of animals.  Our caterpillars will be with us for a few weeks as we study different stages of their

development.

Another shorter week next week.  We hope you enjoy the holiday weekend.

Tomorrow is Rock for Camp!

 

Rock for Camp is nearly here.  Thank you to everyone who has bought tickets so far.  We will be selling tickets in school tomorrow morning or on the door tomorrow night (£3 for Adults £2 for children).

Doors open at 6.30pm where we will start the games and raffle and open the ‘tuck shop’ where you can buy a can of juice, a fruit shoot, a packet of crisps or even an ice pole. Adults may BYOB.

We have some excellent raffle prizes including an overnight Glamping experience for 2.  There will a chance to play ‘Slide the Coin at the Bottle’ and other games to be played.

The Band ‘Full Circle’ will be performing between 7-9pm.  We hope to see you all tomorrow night.

Things are Growing in P7


This week we have been looking at the life cycle of plants and how a plant produces seeds.   We have been planting seeds of our own.  The ones that we planted out in the school garden before Easter have become dinner for little visitors to the garden, so undeterred, we are starting again.

 

We have planted cress indoors and letuce, radishes carrots and spring onions outdoors.  We have also been looking at how the plants produce seeds.  We have disected and pressed some flowers and examined each of the parts to learn how seeds are produced.

Rock for Camp

 

As part of their final term enterprise in collaboration with the Parent Council P7 would like to invite everyone from across the school and nursery to a live music event on Friday 28th April.  The doors will open at 6.30pm where there will be music, a raffle and slide coin at the bottle games for adults and children.  There will be some soft drinks and snack available to buy on the night but adults may BYOB.

The band Full Circlewill be performing at the school between 7-9pm.  Christopher Ferguson, our chair of the Parent oCuncil, has been a member of this covers and events band for many years and they have kindly donated their time to raise money for the Primary 7 school camp.  The parent council, for many years now,  have been raising money to ensure that every child who wants to go to camp can get this experience.

The Primary 7 children will be selling the tickets in school.  Numbers are limited so make sure you get your tickets now!
