Our class has decided to do a science topic. We are going to be investigating the human body. This week we looked at the skeleton and discussed how important this structure is to keep all our organs safe as we go about our daily lives.

Here are some pictures of ‘Henry’, this is where we named the different parts of the skeleton. Most of us had a pretty good idea of what the bones and joints were called and where to find them.

Lots of interesting characters turned up to P5 today.

Mario and Princess Peach

Bambi and The Demon Dentist

Alfie Deyes and Pikachu

Lloyd and Harvey from the Demon Headmaster

Grandpa’s Great Escape and The Ninja

Batman vs Superman

Doctor Who (David Tennant) and Tom Daly

Hermione  and Hermione

Dennis the Menace

P5 are enjoying taking part in the Daily Mile.  We have a variety of routes mapped out in the playground depending on weather conditions.  Here are P5 yesterday, enjoying the sunshine at the same time.

A huge well done to all the pupils that successfully completed their Learn 2 Swim Plus Assessment at Broxburn swimming pool.

Today P5 all participated in wearing odd socks to school as a way of remembering Mr Hewitt, who sadly passed away last week.  Mr Hewitt often wore odd socks much to the amusement of the pupils.  Here are our odd socks!
