P4/5 Make games for P2

P4/5 designed and created games that used magnets. The pupils worked co-operatively in groups to plan, problem solve and create games that would be suitable for a P2 audience.

P4/5 then shared these games with P2. They had to explain how to use the games and support the pupils to be ensure everyone was included.

P2 were encouraged to engage with the games and think about how well the games were designed and constructed.

P4/5 planned feedback forms and supported the P2s to share their views. P2 scored each success criteria out of five and gave 2 stars and a wish.

P4/5 will write instructions for their games next week.
All pupils were fully engaged in this experience and demonstrated the school values by being: responsible, respectful, kind when supporting each other and including everyone.

Aliens Invade P2

The pupils have been asking some big questions about the moon and some of the planets and an alien called Pog must have heard, as they crashed into our classroom and left some bits of their space craft behind while trying to fix it.


Pog said they were from Mars and left a letter asking for some information from the pupils about the moon.


The pupils gathered evidence from the scene to discuss what might have happened. Some pupils also tried to rebuild a space craft.


The pupils created their own character called Pog which they will use while they learn about story structure, creating their own version of ‘Man in the Moon’ by Simon Bartram.

I’m excited to see where the pupils will take our learning next!

P2 Class Charter

P2 worked together to create their class charter. We have all agreed to follow SHANARRI, making sure everyone is Safe, Healthy, Achieving, Nurtured, Responsible, Respected and Included.

P2 were also introduced to the United Nations Convention of the Child, which is all about Children’s Rights. We have discussed what adults should do to make sure their rights are respected.

Every day P2 put their peg name onto an emotion symbol to show how they are feeling each day. We are learning about different emotions and how body sensations change with our emotions.

Missing Clothes, Property and Snack Boxes

We are only a few days into the new school year and already we are having reports of lost property.

The biggest cause of lost property in school is not the children leaving it somewhere, we expect that and try to gather it.

The biggest cause of lost property in school is unlabelled items.

With so many children wearing identically sized clothes, either uniform or sourced from the same shops, it is inevitable that confusion occurs and very often isn’t spotted at home.

The same is true of lunch boxes, water bottles and snack bags. There will definitly be anohter child or more with the same item.

Please label with, or write on all items and clothing, the child’s name and ideally surname and class as well.
