Hi everyone!
We have had a great week in Primary 7, learning lots of new things and finding out more about what happened in WW2. Read on for more information.
Charlie and Callum – We had a visit from Mrs Downham, a teacher from St. Margaret’s Academy. She told us some things about life and learning at St. Margaret’s and helped us to feel more calm about the transition.
Callum and Kaden – Some students from St. Margaret’s visited us at assembly today to tell us about their trip to Malawi where they will be building a school for children. We are helping to raise money and make parcels for the children too.
Charlie and Liam – We started volleyball in PE and played a ladder game where if you beat your opponent you went up a level and if you lost you went down a level on the ladder.
Kaden – We did some more measure work in maths looking at area, perimeter and volume and we are now ready to move on to angles.
Dallas – In science, we looked at forces and did an experiment using a straw to blow air to keep a balloon up.
Aidan and Joshua – We continued our WW2 topic by learning about the Blitz and the blackout where people put up black curtains and material to stop any light shining out of their windows so that German planes didn’t know there were people down below and therefore didn’t drop bombs.
Sally – We celebrated Ash Wednesday by having a service with Father Kenneth. We also made Lenten promises and placed these on our altar while reflecting on what we would do to become better people during Lent.
Eve McC – Yesterday is was world book day and we came to school dressed as our favourite book characters. We did a fun activity where we had to invent a new character for a book and describe them.
Have a great weekend!
