P4/3 had a fantastic trip today to Deep Sea World. We saw lots of different fish and animals. We especially enjoyed going through the tunnel and trying to spot the sharks. We learned lots about the seals and saw them being fed and we had an informative session in the classroom which really made us think about how we get rid of our rubbish and to try to recycle more.
Primary 1 have had a fantastic day at Deep Sea World. We learned lots of interesting facts at our classroom session and had lots of fun completing the pearl scavenger hunt.
Everyone showed our school values during the trip, being respectful to the fish 🐟 and other people in the aquarium.
A different week this week with a Monday holiday, a Thursday inservice day and two children on holiday.
We continued with our learning in literacy, maths/numeracy and art. Great waiting and listening skills displayed during our ‘What’s in the box?’ session.
Some of the class enjoyed some numeracy learning games on our new Promethean Board this week too.
Today, P3 took part in a special assembly all about Mary, mother of Jesus. P3 worked very hard to prepare for the assembly and were excited to share their learning with the school and parents.
During the assembly, we shared the importance of Mary and learned why the month of May is dedicated to Mary by the Catholic Church.
P3 spoke clearly and confidently while sharing their knowledge and even sang a hymn for everyone. We were very proud of the effort everyone put into their reading and speaking in front of an audience.
P3 showed excellent teamwork and respect throughout the assembly and demonstrated great confidence. Thank you to all the families who came along to support us.
Well done, P3, on a wonderful assembly! 👏🌟
This week, we also began our new life cycle topic. We started by exploring the life cycle of a frog and watched a fascinating time-lapse video showing each stage of its development. We then compared the frog life cycle to the human life cycle, discussing the similarities and differences between them.
On Wednesday, we received a very special delivery of caterpillars! We carefully found them a safe home in our classroom and have loved observing and looking after them each day. P3 are very excited to watch them grow and change. Next week, we will continue our learning by exploring the caterpillar life cycle in more detail. 🐸🐛
This week in Primary 1 we received a special delivery…. Caterpillars 🐛. We were all very excited about watching them grow and taking care of them. Some of us remembered caterpillars 🐛 from nursery but we couldn’t remember any details about them. Everyone has agreed to take care of them and we are keen to learn how they turn into butterflies 🦋.
On Wednesday we took part in our school committee groups where get to make leadership choices about our school. We all enjoy getting to work together with boys and girls across the whole school.
It was was a bit confusing 🫤 to have a Thursday off school but when we came back in on Friday we enjoyed telling all our friends about what we got up to on our extra day at home.
Everyone has shown a keen interest in making paper aeroplanes ✈️ this has been lots of fun designing then and seeing who’s aeroplane ✈️ could fly the furthest.
Have a lovely weekend 😀
Well!….Despite having a couple less days in school this week, we have still managed to pack a lot in!
We have loved our time in the Sensory Room and with the drier weather have taken our Sensory learning experiences outside with our tuff tray. In class we experimented with mixing different colours of sand. We have also loved experiencing the squeeze sock!
In class we have continued to work on our pencil grips, number bonds, shape recognition.
Another busy, busy, week…and we’re already looking forward to Monday!
Lomond class enjoyed the sunshine last week – whilst developing balancing and climbing skills at the Trim Trail.
Learning in literacy and maths continued- some of us enjoyed online activities on our new Promeathean board.
We had fun in PE with Mrs M. A few of us focused well on learning basket ball skills with help from the PE student teachers.
Yesterday we did some printing with paint to create our ladybird inspired pictures.
It’s been a busy week with Matilda preparations and our assembly performance. We really hope you enjoyed it if you managed to get along today. The subject choice, saving the ocean, is something that P5 have loved learning about and feel really passionate about. Thank you for taking the time to come along.
With the weather improving Primary 1 have been enjoying some time outdoors.
During outdoor learning we had to measure different things outside. We worked with partners to completed this and enjoyed being up in the woodland area.
In our PE sessions as well as enjoying our equipment session we have been practicing outside for sports day coming up. Everyone is excited to be taking part in sports day.
In RE this week we learned the Story of the Good Shepherd and discussed how God is our Shepherd and he tries to guide us safely.
On Thursday we went a walk up to the nursery to visit our friends. Lots of us were talking about our time at nursery and how we missed our friends. This gave us the opportunity to talk about how some of these friends will be coming to school soon and we will be moving to Primary 2. We had a lovely time and decided we would like to go back again.
On Friday we enjoyed the Primary 5 assembly about oceans, we found this very interesting as we have been learning about oceans and creatures that live in them.
We hope everyone has a lovely long weekend 😉 hopefully Mr Sun ☀️ will stay out.
In a sun drenched week we have enjoyed sensory exploration with coloured sand…we loved the feel!!
We have also been to the park where we climbed, swung and slid! We have also enjoyed time on the Trim Trail too!
In class we have built towers, designed peg board patterns and explored shapes and number bonds. We are also moving on apace with our Literacy skills and are starting to look at middle sounds as well as initial sounds.
We have had a lovely busy, busy, week!
