Aldi Kits For School

We were excited to receive a delivery this morning from Aldi. As a result of our whole school community coming together to collect the sports stickers from Aldi last term, we were lucky enough to be rewarded with a kit for our school to supplement our PE and sports. P4 and P5 were very excited to share our reward with the rest of the school today, we can’t wait for the opportunity to make use of the equipment.

A huge thank you to everyone who helped us collect and enabled us to claim this super piece of kit.

Celebrating Languages

Primary 4 are continuing to celebrate Scotland Loves Languages week by researching the range of languages spoken in our school community.

We created a survey, which we carried out in each class, to find out the variety of mother tongues and additional learned languages spoken in our school, and how they were learned.

At the last count today we have 20 languages spoken in our Toronto Family. The additional languages learned have been through a variety of approaches, eg. from parents/carers, other family members, friends, at school, self study, work, online, TV.

We also asked the children and staff which languages they would like to learn at Toronto and were delighted with the wide variety of interest from our peers, some ideas were: French, Mandarin, Polish, Italian, BSL, Gaelic.

We look forward to using this data to help plan experiences and activities to encourage other’s to love learning languages as much as we do.

P4 Loves Languages

P4 have been celebrating the diverse collection of languages spoken in our school community, as part of Scotland Loves Languages week.

We researched how to say “Hello”, “Welcome” and “How are you?” in a variety of different languages and wrote these in our playgrounds to make our families feel welcome to our school as they pick us up and drop us off.

We have been developing our knowledge of the weather and colours in French through lots of games and fun activities. We have also been working on some Spanish with Mrs Boadley.
