Well done to all of our pupils who have achieved their bronze, silver and gold leaves on our Achievement Tree. It is looking wonderfully full in our reception area.
An especially big Well Done to Supreta P4 and Aylin P2 who received their gold medals this year.
Last school year, as part of the Children as Human Rights Defenders project, which leds up to the participation of Members of Children’s Parliament in the UN Day of General Discussion 2018, P5 (then P4) took part in a children’s right workshop. Many of these happened across Scotland.
Thanks to Children’s Parliament for organising and sharing the video of this event.
Dalry Sports day took place a few weeks ago and there was amazing performances across all years and even some of the parents.
Well done to all for taking part and to all our race and team winners.
Here are some pictures from the day.
P4 attended a food workshop at Wagamama.
They learnt how Wagamama prepared food and drinks and had a tour of the whole restaurant to learn about health and safety when working with food. They also got to learn about and experience how to make healthy food and drink. They liked the tasting part most of all!
In class pupils will be using all they learnt to create leaflets for how to prepare food safely at Wagamamas.
P4 went outdoors to learn about how to create a setting for their stories. They worked in teams problem solving how to create an interesting setting and a story line for their characters.
They then took notes of interesting words to describe what they could see, hear, feel and smell.
Using these notes they wrote some sentences to describe their setting in an interesting way.
Recently most of our classes have been out in the playground playing with all our new loose play equipment.
The children have shown their fantastic creativity and made up all sorts of interesting structures and games. They will be lots more opportunities for classes to go out again!
P4 asked to share their learning with the school, they were enthusiastic about their topic and learnt a lot of interesting facts and they wanted to inspire others to learn about the Egyptians also. They decided to create a museum and used their visit to the museum to help plan every aspect of the day themselves. I was very impressed about their careful consideration as to how to encourage people to explore the exhibits as well as have fun while learning.
It was a very successful day and we would like to thank all the classes and parents/carers who visited on the day. To celebrate the end of the topic the pupils wrapped some volunteers up as mummies!
