P2 have been exploring different materials and their properties. Such as plastic being waterproof. As part of their learning they had to design and create a toy boat that would float. They were given a wide range of junk materials to recycle into the toy boat. They had to problem solve to choose the most appropriate materials and design.
A couple of boats didn’t stay afloat so pupils revisited their designs to make modifications. In the end all boats stayed afloat and were able to move when the children blew on the sails.

This week we were happy to be able to welcome families in to see our P5, P6 and P7 classes perform with Scottish Opera.
The children practiced hard in advance with their class teachers, Mrs Ewan and PSAs as well as with you at home.
The hard work paid off with a stunning performance of The Curse of MacCabbra Opera House.
Congratulations and bravo to all!

This term, P2 have been finding out how to keep a baby safe, especially as babies develop and reaching new milestones and facing new safety issues. They really enjoyed Oliver’s visit with his mum, where Sally shared with the children how she keeps Oliver safe. Everyone really enjoyed their visit and big sister Chloe joined us near the end to demonstrate Oliver’s crawling. The children realised how vulnerable babies are, how dependent they are on their family and how they must never be left alone.
In addition the children enjoyed sharing their knowledge and experience of home safety tips: always place a baby on their back when they are going to sleep, not leaving hot beverages on the edge of a table, keeping toxic chemicals out of reach and removing potential electrical hazards. Also discovering how mums-to-be help to keep themselves and their babies healthy during pregnancy.
Through learning how to keep a baby safe, the children appreciated that they can play a part in keeping themselves and others safe. Whether it is in the park, crossing the road, at school or at home. the children discussed the hazards and strategies how to avoid them.
