Primary 4 have been learning about Celtic roundhouses. We discovered that roundhouses were important community buildings in Celtic times. They were built using wattle and daub for the walls and had large conical roofs made from thatch. Inside, families lived around a central open fire, which was used for cooking and heating. There were no chimneys, so the smoke drifted up through the thatched roof. Sometimes, even farm animals were kept inside the roundhouse to keep them safe and warm.

In class, we recreated roundhouses using clay and straw. We really enjoyed constructing them, and even using them for play afterwards!

Article 31: the right to rest, play and take part in cultural and artistic activities. 

This week in PE with Miss Christie P6 looked at different sport skills. Some of these we have learnt over past couple weeks and others we will look at after the holidays. We also played a fun shooting game to end the lesson. On Tuesday with Ms Armitage P6 played drop kick rounders.

P3 have been working super hard since the start of term to learn their common spelling words. This week they participated in various active spelling activities but particularly spelling enjoyed using play dough to create their words #Article31 #Article28

This hard work, focus and determination payed off as they all scored extremely high in our end of week spelling test – Well done P3 🤩⭐️

They also self assessed their literacy work so far and set new writing and reading targets for this term.

This week P2 have been completing some amazing autumnal artwork, story creating using story cubes and consolidating our place value knowledge!
