Our week began with a nice start to technology week. We have taken part in technology workshops throughout the week. On Monday we learned all about sinking and floating and how the density of an object caused it to float or sink.
On Tuesday Primary 4 took part in the cluster school Handball festival. We worked really hard in our teams and had some very successful games with great results. We have really been working on our handball skills and Mrs Wassell can see definate improvements with our team work. We loved it so much so that we are asking Mr McCurdy if we can do that for our next block of PE.
This week was Ash Wednesday. We all took part in the school mass and sang the hymns beautifully. It was a lovely service. When we came back to class we discussed what lent meant to us and decided what our lenten promise would be for this year.
Cole B – My lenten is promise is to not play on my xbox because this is something I do a lot.
Vanessa – For Lent I am going to give up eating sweetiies.
Chloe – For my lenten promise I am going to exercise more.
On Thursday we took part in a food technology workshop where we made beef fajitas. Ethan, Preston, Paige and ChiChi were the chefs for our fajitas. We thought they were delicious.
Grace – I learned how to make salsa from scratch.
Thomas – We also learned about food miles and how we can get meat very locally.
Kalin – I learned all about the nutrients in red meat. Protein helps your muscles grow.
We hope you all have a wonderful holiday weekend!

It sounds as though you have really enjoyed your week. I love the pictures of your workshop with Quality Meat Scotland, it looks like you are enjoying the fajitas!! I can’t believe you didn’t keep me some!
It was lovely to hear you singing at Mass on Wednesday you really try hard to take part in whole school assemblies and mass. Well done P4.

Loved hearing all the fun things that were happening in and around school this week. Technology week has definitely been a big hit with the pupils and with us parents at home now that weve been shown how to make such yummy fajitas. 😀😀😀
Oh I hope you enjoyed your fajitas as much as we did here Laura! mmm.. 🙂
I thought technology week was really exciting and fun I liked it when Jenny came in to our school to talk about healthy eating, healthy bodes and how we keep our bodes nice and strong. I loved when we made the yummy fajitas I thought they where delicious and healthy for our bodes.
An engineer came into our school and talked about science and density I thought it was very interesting and learned a lot of new exciting information
I’m glad you enjoyed all of the activities Lorena and I hope you learned lots of new things! 🙂
