Reading With P7

This term P7 have been sharing our library session with us.  It has been great for P1 to hear some of the stories before they decide which book they would like to take home.   Through reading to younger children, P7 have been developing their fluency and expression.  Thanks P7 - we really enjoy our library time with you!

P1 Assembly

On Friday, P1 presented some of their learning in RME to the rest of the school.  We have been learning about how people in different parts of the world celebrate New Year, with a particular focus on Chinese New Year.  As part of our assembly all the children had a little bit to say, they showed their dragon masks and performed a dragon dance they had been practising in class PE.  Well done P1!
