It has been a short but very busy week for Primary 6.<\/p>\n

We have been working hard on our Australia topic, looking at some very different places within Australia.\u00a0 For writing this week we imagined we were on holiday in Australia and writing home about all the great things we were doing.\u00a0 To help us write great descriptions we used photographs of places in Australia to inform our writing.<\/p>\n

We watched two \u201cVisit Australia\u201d adverts and discussed the similarities and differences between them.\u00a0 We talked about how they made us want to go there by using particular language or images.\u00a0 We also started to research different Australian animals to create some fact files that we can then share to the rest of the class.<\/p>\n

Wednesday was international Peace Day.\u00a0 We learned how Peace Day first started.\u00a0 It was the idea of one man who has worked very hard to have the day recognised all over the world.\u00a0 His work was very inspiring and showed us how much difference one person can really make!\u00a0 Using our school values for inspiration we came up with “World Values”.\u00a0 If everyone agreed to World Values similar to St Ninian’s we all agree that the world would be a much more peaceful place.\u00a0 We also worked on our mindfulness techniques this week, including some breathing exercises and time for meditation after PE.\u00a0 After our daily mile we also created a human Peace sign with Primary 5. It was quite tricky, but great fun!<\/p>\n

Father Kenneth came to visit this week.\u00a0 It was lovely to see him around the school and for us to show him all our hard work.\u00a0 We look forward to him coming in again.<\/p>\n

We were all very excited to start our new committees this week.\u00a0 The pupils all came back to class very excited to go to their next committee meeting. \u00a0I look forward to finding out what everyone is planning!<\/p>\n

Just a reminder to return the yellow pupil profile folders if you have not already done so.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
