P3’s Christmas Learning
We have been looking at addition and subtraction in Numeracy and have been focusing on inverse operations. Primary 3 have become experts at this and have helped an alien to understand more about inverse operations by designing posters. In writing we completed our final Narrative Text about missing Christmas presents. We have had a busy week and have also enjoyed doing lots of Christmas artwork as well as attending our Christmas party and watching the P1 Nativity.
Christmas in Romania with P4/5
We have been learning about Christmas around the World. To celebrate the different cultures in our classroom, one of our classmates taught us about his Christmas traditions in Romania. We took part in a fun quiz to test our knowledge, learned a traditional Romanian carol song and made our own Sorcova tissue flower for New Years.
Christmas in Spain with P4/5
In P4/5, one of our classmates taught us about her Christmas traditions in Spain. She shared some interesting and fun facts! We took part in a fun quiz to test our knowledge, sang two carols; Noche de Paz (Silent Night) and Mi Burrito Sabanero. We learned about the Three Wise Men who visit Spanish children on the night of the 5th of January, delivering gifts or coal. We then played a fun game of pasar el paquete (pass the parcel), where one of our classmates got a gift from the Wise men and another unluckily got coal. It was a lot of fun!
Festive Fun in P5
Primary 5 have enjoyed a festive few weeks filled with learning and creativity. We learned the Makaton signs for Feliz Navidad, made crafts for the Christmas Fayre, and decorated our tree. The children also designed their own Christmas jumpers and created colourful Christmas hats for our Christmas lunch. They enjoyed learning the Virgina Reel, The Gay Gordons and the Dashing White Sergeant Scottish dances showing excellent pace and steps. They finished this week by exploring how different countries celebrate Christmas, discovering lots of interesting traditions.
It’s been a fun and busy lead-up to the holidays in P5!
Spreading Christmas Cheer at Braid House
Our school choir had the wonderful opportunity to visit Braid House this week and share the festive spirit. The children performed a beautiful selection of Christmas carols and songs, filling the room with warmth and joy. Residents and staff were delighted, and it was heartwarming to see so many smiles. We are incredibly proud of our pupils for representing the school so well with their enthusiasm and lovely singing. A big thank-you to Braid House for welcoming us so warmly and making this special occasion possible.
Christmas Ceilidh with P6/7
P6/7 have been learning traditional Scottish country dances! We’ve been practicing the St Bernard’s Waltz, the Canadian Barn Dance, and the Gay Gordons. It’s been great fun, and we’ve discovered just how energetic (and exhausting!) ceilidh dancing can be.
It’s Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas
Primary 1 have been busy practicing for our Nativity!
The stage is set and we are working hard, putting the finishing touches to make it a show to remember!!!!

P6/7 have been investigating Christmas in Bulgaria. As part of their learning the learned a Bulgarian Carol and want ed to share their learning with the rest of the school. Yesterday P6/7 went carolling to the different blocks to share their song. Listen to it here:
Christmas Choir
Our Toronto choir visited Braid House this week to perform some Christmas carols for the members there. We loved sharing our Christmas spirit, joy and singing with them.
