Welcome to Primary 1.  We have already been so busy this term and can't wait to do even more fun things.  We have been learning some of our sounds and have been learning to recognise our numbers and count them.  Miss Breslin has been so impressed by how quickly we are learning new things.

We have enjoyed spending time with our buddies.  They have shown us round the school, taken us to the lunch hall for lunch, and come down to have Golden Time with us.  We look forward to spending more time with them.

We have learned about the people who help us in school, and were lucky that Johnny the Janitor, Miss Kingsley (cook) and Mrs Howie (Classroom Assistant) came to talk to us about their jobs.

For European Week we learned about a French artist called Monet, and recreated his Waterlilies picture.  we had a French afternoon, where we learned a French song and tasted some French food - yumm!!!

We were so lucky to have an author come in to visit us.  Lyn McNicol read us some of the story about Badger the Mystical Mutt and Badger visited us.  We enjoyed this very much!

P1a Rangoli Patterns

Primary 1a have been learning about Diwali (The Festival of Light) with Miss Lee. The children learned about the different ways that Hindus celebrate Diwali. One of the methods of celebration is making Rangoli patterns on the floor of the celebrants' house. We made our own Rangoli patterns in the playground using chalk. Here are some of the children hard at work!
