it is now.

NacoNon Presentation
Drug Awareness
Last Tuesday Primary 6 and 7 came together and had a Drug
awareness workshop with a charity called NacoNon. We all learned a lot about
drugs and alcohol and we made a poster to show what we learned. To learn more

Home Economics
Home Economics
For the past few weeks we have been going to St Augustine to
do Home Economics. Many of the primary 7s don’t know how to cook so this has
been a great opportunity not only to get to know the high school but also to
gain some new skills. We have made Fruit Salad and Banana Buns. Next week we
will be making wraps!

World Book Day
World Book Day
For World Book week there was a competition held in school
for which class could design the best door cover. We were not sure which book
to choose so we decided to choose a book from the Scottish Children’s Book
Awards finalists. We had a vote on which
book deserves to win it was out of: ATTACK
OF THE GIANT ROBOT CHICKENS, PYRATES
BOY and Precious and the mystery of the missing lion. In our class the
winner was THE ATTACK OF THE GIANT ROBOT
CHICKENS. So after a couple of days the door was done. This is how it
looked compared to the book.
Primary 7 Retreat Day
Primary 7 Retreat Day
A few weeks ago, primary 7 went to St Augustine with few
other schools for a Retreat day. We had several lessons including: music, art,
dance and we had a Mass at the end. It was a great experience and we all had a
great time.
Maths and Art
Maths and Art
We decided to combine maths and art
together. We learned about Kandinsky and how he used angles in his art. We
designed and painted our own abstract art while using the angles: 45, 260, 90
and 120.
Escher was also someone we learned
about. He used tessellation in his art so we made tessellating birds from
coloured paper and stuck them on black card.We also learned about Wychinanki. Wychinanki is an art that uses symmetry. We folded some card and cut out half a tree then we unfolded it and stuck on some coloured paper symmetrically to decorate it.
The Risk Factory
The Risk Fatory
On Thursday 12th February, Primary 7 went to The
Risk Factory. Unfortunately we cannot tell you anything about it because it is
to be kept secret for next year’s P.7. Trust us, it's great.
