This afternoon, to celebrate World Book Day, P1 pupils worked with P5/6 pupils.
P1 pupils made up their own stories and P5/6 pupils wrote them down. Then they worked together drawing pictures to illustrate the stories.

They shared the stories with each other. They were wonderful. They will have a fabulous book of stories to celebrate World Book Day 2010!

The nursery and P1 have been celebrating Chinese New Year. They listened to the story of the first new year and talked about how they like to celebrate special days. The children made their own Chinese dragon. They performed a dragon dance inspired by the poem ‘Chinese New Year Dragon’ and then tasted some noodles and crackers, using chop sticks.
P1 and P2/3 have been working hard on their Christmas Nativity play. The play is called Christmas with the Aliens. They are looking forward to the dress rehearsal on Friday.

Primary 1/2 have been studying a topic on Plants. They became plant detectives this week. The challenge was to look around the grounds of the school and find three different types of stems. They took magnifying glasses and clipboards to help them to become real scientists!
When they were back in the classroom, the children conducted an experiment to investigate stems. They used food colouring to dye some water red, and then they put a celery stick into it. They made predictions about what would happen and wrote up a short report of their findings.
