P2 Weekly Update 1.12.23
Hello and happy December – the most divisive year in the calendar! P2 are very much in the ‘December’ is fabulous camp and have fully embraced the season today by decorating our classroom tree and welcoming a very special visitor. Little Candy Cane, the naughty elf will be disrupting our peaceful mornings for the next few weeks!
We had very little time to properly mark St Andrew’s day due to our intensive nativity rehearsals but we did give some highland dancing a bash. Looks can be deceiving! It was surprisingly hard!
A special mention must be given to the whole class who attended our advent service this morning with Father Marcin. They were an absolute privilege to sit with, behaved impeccably and gave Father a wonderful impression of what we can do at St Mary’s.
Christmas Fayre is in the dinner hall at 10am tomorrow morning. P2 have personalised baubles on sale for £2. Please come along and support the school.
Have a great weekend.

Tay Class
What a quick (and busy!) term it’s been… below are some photos of what Tay Class have been doing.

To link in with Book Week Scotland P1M decorated wooden spoons to resemble book characters.
We had some great ideas – the witch from Room on the Broom, the caterpillar from The Hungry Caterpillar, a skeleton from Funnybones , Anna and Elsa from Frozen and Harry Potter !
The Christmas Workshop was in full swing, and our busy elves were working hard to make sure that our crafts were all finished for the Christmas Fayre on Saturday 2nd December in our school hall.
Come along and buy one of your little ones crafts, they had so much fun making them.
We also practised really hard for our Nativity show – It’s a Baby ! There were songs to learn and lots of things to remember , but we were just amazing – as usual ! Don’t forget to get your tickets !
Have a great weekend everyone.
P2 Weekly Update 24.11.23
Hello! Another week gone! It won’t be long until that scary ‘C’ word that fills teachers with dread! And on that subject, P2 have been busy making a little treat for you to purchase at the Christmas Fayre next weekend.
We’ve also made a strong start to the nativity practice and can’t wait for you to see it in a few weeks time.
Business as usual in other areas however as we continued to build up our knowledge of fact families in maths.
Have a great weekend and stay warm!
This week in Primary 7 …
We have been learning about division this week in Maths. We can recognise that division is the opposite of multiplication and understand division is splitting a number into equal groups. We have been applying this knowledge when completing 3 digit number divided by 2 digit number calculations. Division is tricky however we are finding strategies to help us before moving on to long division.
In literacy we have been working on our questioning skills for our reciprocal reading, creating quizzes on our non-fiction texts and quizzing our classmates. We have been completing our information report using evidence found online using our digital skills to help us. Our next steps will be to identify the sources of evidence and reference these in our work.
We have been getting into the Christmas spirit early this week by creating our Christmas crafts for the Christmas fayre next week. Keep an eye open for our handy Christmas baubles, they’re sure to sell out fast. We have enjoyed singing along to Christmas songs and can’t wait for more festivities.
P3 update
It has been another very productive week in P3. Nativity rehearsals are well and truly underway. We have been on the stage, learning our lines and singing the songs. We have all worked very hard.
We have also made a Christmas poster which will be displayed on the wall in the dinner hall.
Ellie – I made winter trees for the poster
Luke – I made a snowflake
Cody – I used paint to make the snowy mountains
Karlie – I made the golden ticket
Iza and Bella – we made glittery snowflakes
