Primary 5’s busy week

WOW WOW WOW!

What a week we have had in Primary 5! We have had such a busy week with all our fun ‘Lent’ activities with ‘Cake & Candy’ on Monday, ‘Funfair’ on Tuesday, ‘Bingo’ on Wednesday and our amazing ‘St Marys Got Talent’ show today! On Wednesday, St Marys Gymnastics team also had a competition and three of our girls from Primary 5 took part.

We have had so many children in our class rehearsing for the talent show over the last few weeks and everyone from Primary 5 that took part, was amazing!!

We had The Karen Show, The Comedy Show and a poem called ‘Monday Blues’ written by Connor in our class.

At the Funfair on Tuesday, Michael guessed the correct birthday of the chick and won!!

And today at the talent show, Connor won the P4-P7 category with his own poem!

Also, at the gymnastics competition St Mary’s came first with Victoria, Kornelia and Zofia all getting medals and, Victoria getting a second medal for her individual performance.

Massive well done to everyone! Enjoy the holidays and I’ll see you all in a couple of week!

Primary 5 this week…

It’s been very busy again in Primary 5 this week!!

We have been working really hard on our new Numeracy topic ‘Decimals’ in preparation for starting our Money topic after the Easter holidays. Decimals has been a challenge but we’re doing really well with it.

In Literacy some of our reading groups started new books – Rockets started ‘The Iron Man’ and Shooting Stars started ‘Paradise High.’ The Crazy Craters are nearly finished ‘The BFG’ and the Astronauts are nearly finished ‘James and the Giant Peach’ so both of those groups will be getting new books before Easter too.

It was Science Week so to celebrate we completed the Tower Challenge! You have to build a tower using only once piece of paper and nothing else. Using different strategies such as cutting, slotting, folding and rolling the winning group built their tower 61.5cm high!

We worked in teams to complete this challenge and everyone showed amazing school values throughout.

We were also told about ‘St Mary’s Got Talent’ taking place on Thursday 28th of March before we split up for the Easter Holidays. We decided on our groups and what our acts are going to be for the talent show. We are going to be practicing a couple of times a week before the show and we are all really excited!

Finally, we had Parents’ Evening this week and it was lovely to see so many of you, and catch up! Everyone has been working really, really hard throughout Primary 5 and I am so proud of all of the pupils in class!

Have a great weekend everyone…see you next week!
