November

Primary 5/6

The primary 6s have now finished their swimming lessons and we all had a great time. One week we had to pretend we were drowning and some other children had to use a stick or a rope to pull us out. The last week was a great success, as we had to wear our pyjamas to practise our life saving skills.

Our joint assembly with St James Primary School on 12th November went well. Our assembly was about Remembrance Day and we all wore poppies. Everybody was given a small speaking part and a poem and a prayer were said. We performed our assembly at both schools and parents were invited. Our class and St James sang a lovely song “ No Wars Will Stop Us Singing.” The charity we chose to send our collection money was The Royal British Legion.

On Friday the 19th November it was a “Come As You Please Day” and were all brought £1. We had a special visitor from Pudsey Bear that morning and Pudsey collected our money.

Our school Christmas Fair was on Saturday 20th November and we all made our Christmas Craft, a glitter candle holder and these were sold at the Fair.

Primary 5 have been doing experiments in Science and this has been great fun. We have been mixing solids and liquids and predicting the results.

We are going to be very busy learning our Christmas song for the Christmas Concert!
