As part of their work on 'The Senses' Pr 2/3 have produced some excellent art pieces using a photo of themselves as the basis for the work. The pieces look very good when displayed in the school corridor! Click on the link below to see more of the work!
Primary 1/2 have been doing a project all about Toys over the term. They did lotsof work and enjoyed listening to the story of ' Harry and the Robots'! They said they would like to build their own robots that did a good deed for someone. The robot in the story did a good deed and it cured Harry's Nan's cough!)
Click on the link below and youcan see some photos of the children with their models! They look great and they worked hard making these.
The link below will open a presentation showing a selection of some of the aret work and displays from round the school from Term 3. This is a long term but the pupils have worked very hard and have
produced some excellent pieces of work.
The Nursery and Primary 1 had a great visit this week from 'Zoologica' and were able to see and TOUCH a range of animals. They saw rats, a snake, an African Snail and a large, scarey spider! Primary 5 put on an afternoon for parents and frineds showcasing the work they have done over the term on 'The Unsinkable Ship'! They presneted what they had learnt all about the doomed voyage of The Titanic! They even sang a song which they wrote themselves. We were very impressed.
Primary 3/4 have turned their class into a museum of Egypt and it is full of aretfacts and art work about Egypt! Primary 7 have been busy preparing for the final of 'Strichen's Got Talent' whichwill be a fun way to finish the term. Pr 7 will be off to Loch Insh the first day we are back from holiday! What a great way to start the term!
Primary 6 pupils had their bikes into school this week to get themchecked over before starting the Cycling Proficiency Scheme next term. This is an important block of work but is also good fun! Primary 2/3 have been finding out about 'The Senses' and did some amazing art work to represent the different senses!
It has been a busy term and we are all looking forward toour break. We hope you enjoy looking at the photos.
A group of pupils from the school were invited along to the local Co-op store on Thursday 31st March to officially open the newly refurbished store. Four of the house captains from Pr 7 were joined by a pupil from each of the classes in the school for the trip. The pupils were picked at random to represent the school.
The weather was not great and the rain was pouring down as we were getting ready to go along to the Co-op. We would like to thank the Mormond Hotel for coming along with their mini-bus to pick us up from the school to take us along to the shop.
Once there the pupils waited for the 'official' ceremony! A photographer was there to record the event for the local press and a lovely ribbon was placed across one of the aisles and the pupils prepared to cut the ribbon! Henry was given the honour and duly opened the store!
The manager kindly presented each pupil with a 'goody bag' to take away with them and a helium ballon for each of them! On w windy, wet morning the thought of getting 8 helium ballons safely back to school was a bit of a thought! Mrs Capmbell came to the recuse and took them back to the school in her car.
The Co-op have made a donation to the school for coming along to open the store and we would like to thank them for this kind gesture. We will use the money to buy some new equipment for the playground for the summer term.
