Air Raid Shelters

We spent the day designing and building our own model Air Raid Shelters as part of our WW2 topic. We brought in materials from home to use along with school resources and were very happy with the finished products. Take a look for yourself. 

Cross Country Championships

A team of Primary 6 and Primary 7's took part in the Renfrewshire Cross Country Championships on Thursday. They showed fantastic determination to complete the 2k race. Team mates were running alongside each other encouraging them to keep going when they found it tough which showed great team spirit. Well done team! 

ARP Wardens

We spent our afternoon looking at WW2 artefacts given to us by Paisley Museum. 

Gas Masks

Gymnastics

We are coming to the end of our Gymnastics topic in P.E. We have been working very hard on balances, movement and using apparatus. Here are some pictures of us in action! 

Children's Rights

We have spent our morning discussing children's rights and their importance. We know that during the war some rights were taken away from children. We discussed how our rights are met nowadays and prioritised them. We then used this knowledge to make persuasive posters around the articles. 

New Term

We are looking ahead to another busy term in Primary 7. Our topic is WW2 and we have already been busy learning about the start of the war and evacuation. 

We will be studying Children's Rights through the topic and growing our own victory gardens in science. 

In maths we will be studying Algebra, Time Durations and Symmetry. 

Our class novel is Carrie's War which is the heartwarming story of siblings Carrie and Nick who are evacuated to a Welsh mining village during WW2. 

In R.E we will be looking at World Leaders and for P.E the class have chosen Gymnastics and Rugby for this term. 

We look forward to welcoming Mrs McGlynn as out new Head Teacher and wish Mrs Colquhoun all the best in her new job.
