P4a had fun teaching Ms Shepherd how to play their new game of Cops and Robbers. They also enjoyed their Hama beads masterclass.

We have been making the most of our talent this year to explore two very different artistic styles. We have used the art and design skills of Scotland’s own Charles Rennie MacIntosh to create the beautiful McIntosh Rose, and the Pointillisme dot-colouring technique of French Impressionist Georges Seurat to create stunning Sunflowers.

As part of our Talk for Writing programme, P5/6 have been generating visual storyboards in order to illustrate the various stages in the development of an imaginative story.

These storyboards help us to plan, block and paragraph the various steps in the story.

P3a asked to have a Halloween party in class. They designed and created their own masks and costumes.  They also planned which games to play and how to adapt then to the Halloween theme.  Great fun was had by all and we were all very impressed by their well designed costumes.
