National Numeracy Day

As part of National Numeracy Day on 18th May children from P2/3, P3, P4/5, P6, P7/6 and P7 took part in an Official World Record Attempt for the most participation and views of Rolling Numbers Livestream.  We managed to break the record and 5, 362 schools took part.  Well done!
We also took part in Numbers and dancing with Katya Jones, where we learned dynamite dance moves.  We had to keep count of the steps .  It was great fun.   We ​thought about what we would like to be when we grow up and how we would use numbers in that job.  We created pictures of us doing our dream job or hobby and  how it uses numbers.
We had a great day.

Primary 4 and their Pictish Diet

P4 having been looking at Pictish foods as part of their IDL topic this term.

We decided to try our hand at making butter by using ancient technologies. After we had made it, we all had chance to taste some along with oatcakes, another staple of the Pictish diet.

 

The oatcakes and butter were delicious

P5 Celebrate Burns Day

In Primary 5, we enjoyed researching and making our own family tartan for our Burn’s display.

We enjoyed the Burns Assembly and the yummy shortbread.

We enjoyed learning and reciting our Burn’s poem ‘Up in the Morning Early’. We liked practicing our best Scottish accents!

We were happy for the afterschool clubs to start up this week. We loved the Multi-sports club.
