Roald Dahl Day!


Some of Primary 4 dressed up for Roald Dahl Day!  

Primary 5 started the day off with a super assembly.  Then we completed some Dahl related activities and visited P2's cake morning.

What a fun day!

What makes a good friend?

Our health and well being lesson this week focused on friendships. We discussed the need for making and keeping friends and how to do this. 

We designed a good friend and have created a friendship display outside the classroom. We will use the information we gathered during this lesson to promote being a good friend in the classroom. 


Healthy Eating Poster Competition

To follow on from the work we completed in the last few weeks on healthy eating and the Eatwell Plate we are entering a food standards agency calendar competition. 
Here we are making our posters. 

The boys were keen to work together...social time! 



Topic Venn Diagram

As part of our Scotland topic we have been comparing Island life to City life. We wrote differences and similarities on post it notes and then sorted the information into a Venn diagram. (A sneaky way of combining Maths and topic at the same time!) 

Lidl Health Bus

Sorry, I was sure I put photos of our visit to the Lidl Heath Bus on our blog a few weeks ago....apparently not!
Better late than never I suppose!

We took part in smoothie making...

Some fun exercise games and we also tested our heart rates using these funky watches...
And we were lucky enough to get a free cook book and smoothie cup. 

Thank you Lidl!!

Food Groups


Last week we were learning about the main food groups. We explored the food triangle and the Eatwell plate. We used plastic food to match items to the correct food group. We were good at this. We also played a few games to further develop our knowledge and understanding.

New P7 house captains



Well done to the new P7 house captains. 
Each house had the chance to vote for the person they thought would do the best job for their house and the 2 people with most votes got the job.

Nessie is taking shape

Our Nessie models are fairly taking shape. Our team work is good and we have shared our idea with each other to produce these super models.


One group has finished their model so they helped to create a large map of Scotland so we can mark on important places and landmarks as we learn them. They used a projector to create a large image on the paper and then drew around it. Miss Kelday is going to cut it out as there are lots of tricky bits.
