Ending another great week in p2

September 18, 2026 Miss Fox Leave a comment

This week in Primary 2, we have had another fantastic week of learning and working together. The children have shown great enthusiasm across all areas of the curriculum and have continued to build their confidence, independence and teamwork skills.

Unfortunately, the wet weather meant we were unable to visit our garden during Outdoor Learning this week, but we made the most of our outdoor classroom instead, enjoying learning and exploring in a different outdoor space.

We are very proud of all the hard work and positive attitudes shown by the children since returning to school this year. We hope everyone has a wonderful September Weekend and enjoys some well-earned time with family and friends! ☺️

Nurture – Exploring Pinocchio 🤥✨

September 17, 2026 wlerin.barr@glow Leave a comment

This week in Nurture, the learners showed a real interest in the story of Pinocchio! We enjoyed exploring the story together and had some fantastic discussions and opportunities to share our thoughts about the importance of telling the truth and how this links to our school values.

Learners were encouraged to communicate their ideas in ways that work best for them, including through talking, visuals, gestures and other forms of communication. We then got creative and made our very own Pinocchio artwork, complete with an extendable nose! 🎨👃

It was lovely to see everyone engaging with the story in their own way and having fun bringing Pinocchio to life!

September weekend is ahead of us! We can’t quite believe it!

And what a week we have had! We have built with blocks, play sand and magnetic sand.

We have also worked on our CVC blending and our Numicon number bonds.

In our Art & Craft work we have worked so hard on images relating to our topic and have finished our corridor display. We think it looks lovely!

We’ll aim to bring your more pictures of our Literacy and Numeracy learning after the break! We’ve just been so busy!

We wish you all a lovely long weekend and we’ll see you on the other side!

We’ve been very active and have been developing lots of skills over the past couple of weeks. There’s been lots of climbing, jumping, balancing, cycling, scootering and building. We’ve especially enjoyed PE with Mrs McMaster and ‘Danny Go’ time in class has been fun!

We’re continuing to learn about day and night through songs and activities. Mrs Ferguson is helping us develop our art and fine motor skills through the theme of Autumn.

In Ness, our learning is not just the curriculum. We also learn Life Skills and display them in our class. Today we were able to celebrate 2 life skills in Ness. A big congratulations to Hunter, who went swimming with his P5 class all by himself. He learned to be resilient and overcome his anxiety,

Also, the class were learning to weed our part of the school garden today. We learned about how to be safe using gardening tools.

A very successful day!

Primary 7

P7 Update

September 15, 2026 M Gaffney Leave a comment

In P7 we have completed our first maths topic. We have enjoyed working with numbers to 10 million. We have been rounding numbers at different place values and ordering numbers to 10 million. We have enjoyed playing games to support us in our learning.

In P7 we value any time we have with our P1 Buddies. Over the past 2 weeks we have had a construction afternoon where we built lots of different structures using different materials. We then had an afternoon of playground games and soup which the P1s had made themselves, it was delicious.

In PE we have been working on our Netball skills. Passing, catching, shooting, moving into spaces, understanding the rules of the game and team work.

Primary 1 enjoyed a lovely buddy session this week, we listened to “What We’ll Build” by Oliver Jeffers. We then then built things in our classroom with our buddies.

In RE this week we discussed how we use our hands to pray 🙏 and thought about who we talk to when we pray. We used this to create beautiful praying hands pictures.

On Thursday we enjoyed our outdoor learning session in the school garden, 🪴 we loved digging for treasure and found lots of potatoes 🥔. Everyone has agreed that we would love to clean them and make something with them.

Have a lovely weekend 😊

Another fantastic week of learning in Primary 1. A firm favourite this week has been PE, we all enjoy having space to run around, work together and playing games.

We explored friendships this week, what makes a good friend and how we are a good friend, after talking about this we then created images of ourselves and our friends. We are all very proud of them.

Everyone in Primary 1 is becoming more independent when it comes to making lunch choices, collecting their lunch as well as clearing it away before play. Lots of us are beginning to try new things and enjoying having choices.

On Friday we participated in our first School Mass, we were all very respectful and sang our hearts ♥️ out.

Have a lovely weekend ☺️

Another week in P2!

September 11, 2026 Miss Fox 1 Comment

A busy week as always!

In Numeracy, we completed our assessment and moved on to a new topic, addition using our number bonds. We continued to develop our confidence with numbers through practical activities and lots of discussion.

In Literacy, we continued working hard in our Read Write Inc. groups, practising our sounds, reading and writing skills.

In our People Who Help Us topic, we worked in small groups to create our very own drama pieces based on our learning. We had some budding actors and actresses in P2! 🎭 We then became drama critics and assessed each other’s performances, sharing one thing we loved and one thing that could make the performance even better next time. We loved seeing everyone work together, use their imaginations and build their confidence when performing for others.
