P5 have enjoyed working on our class allotment in the sun. We prepped the soil and planted some onions and spring onions. We can’t wait to see them start to sprout! Many of us are very excited for the Gardening Club to start up.
Primary 1 have had the opportunity to take advantage of the area which they have had a hand in designing. We asked the pupils what they would like to play with and have, where ever possible, tried to accommodate their ideas (the swimming pool, bouncy castle and flat screen tv were a little beyond us though!).
P2/3 were doing pointillism art pieces with cotton buds.P2/3 really enjoyed it. All the art pieces were amazing.

In P7 this week we designed a poster that will be used to promote our upcoming performances of Joseph and the Technicoloured Dream Coat. We considered what information was required, how we would ensure we had an eye-catching layout and included photographs that grabbed the reader’s attention. If you’re lucky enough to be attending, see how many of the posters you can spot around school!
Some of our Primary 5 pupils took part in a Multisport Festival at Craigswood Sports Centre, as part of Livingston’s 60th Birthday Celebrations.
We tried out some new sports and some that we already love – Football, Badminton and Judo. Our competitive side came out during badminton and we had lots of fun with the Judo and Football coaches. We can’t wait to try out some of these clubs in the community.
P1b have been have been using real life situations, stories and songs to investigate subtraction. Today we looked at how we can represent subtraction in a number sentence using a symbol.
In P3 we have been learning about the features of newspapers. We have been working together to read newspaper articles and to find evidence by skimming and scanning the text.
In P4/5 we have been working on shape. Through play with 3D shape we have been creating buildings and other structures and describing them using mathematical language, such as vertices, edges and faces. We also created 3D shapes from their nets and went on a 3D shape hunt around our block and our classroom.
Everyone in P1A has made a super start to our final term in Primary 1!
We have been outside quite a bit this week, making the most of this lovely weather. We have been getting to grips with some new gardening tools which will be very handy when we start planting in our allotment.
