BUSY BUSY BUSY!




Since returning from that wonderful meeting in Turkey, there's been hardly a minute to spare!

At the moment, I have a post-graduate student and have been busy testing the pupils and starting on reports.

There's a lot to be done before the children transfer to Secondary School.

This weekend Friday-Monday is the May Bank Holiday and the school will be closed.


This week we had our Annual Sports Day and the theme was the World Cup..............even though our National Team won't be at the finals in South Africa, we all enjoy our football over here!

PRIMARY 6 have made soft toys.

Primary Six wanted to show you their soft-toymaking skills.

THE WADDING IS CAREFULLY PUT INTO THE OUTER CASE
PUTTING ON THE EYES WAS A DIFFICULT TASK- The children were trying to give their toys some emotion- happy faces, angry faces etc
LOTS OF DIFFERENT COLOURS OF FELT WAS USED.

IN THIS PHOTO YOU CAN SEE THE DESIGN TEMPLATE AS WELL AS THE SOFT TOY

MAKING EGYPTIAN MASKS with PRIMARY 6

Mrs. McGeady's PRIMARY SIX class made Egyptian Pharoahs' Masks as part of their topic on Ancient Egypt. As you can see a lot of work had to be done planning before the masks were started. It was quite messy but really enjoyable.
