For the last term P1 have been doing a topic on Secret Gardens. They’ve turned their home corner into one, and have been looking at different bugs and beasties that live in them, and did some things about animal life cycles at the Zoo. They also did some finger paintings of plants and bees and they were on display out side their class room, and made some sunflowers and sat them outside.

P1 have been learning about Scotland and where it is. They did some tartan pictures that are outside their classroom. They are also reading Katie Morag stories. They were also looking at where Scotland is and what you can find in it. They are also going to start learning how to sing in Gaelic and they learned what you call a lake in Scotland.

 Remember remember the 5^th of November

Gunpowder, treason and plot

I can’t think of a reason that gunpowder and treason

Should ever be forgot

Fireworks night is great fun and primary 1 have been getting into the spirit of things by creating these wonderful fireworks pictures.

Although fireworks night can be great fun we have to remember that it is all about Guy Fawkes how tried to blow-up the house of parliament. He got caught filling up the cellars with gunpowder.

We mustn’t forget our safety. Here are some great reasons thought up by our brainy primary 1s;

Never play with fireworks

Ask an adult to light your sparkler

Never put a sparkler near your face…and

…HAVE FUN and KEEP SAFE!!
