Penguins

We were very surprised to receive a letter from our penguin friends telling us about their latest adventures. Their names are Penny and Paddy and they have travelled to a new school. We decided to write letters back to them. Luckily we have a post box opposite our school and were able to post our letters. We look forward to hearing back from them.

Penguin letters

Pancake Tuesday.

Today in school was extra exciting. We had our Crazy Hair Day to raise money for the Children's Hospice and we got to make pancakes! We made crepes and loved putting chocolate spread on them. Everyone agreed they were very tasty.

One morning the children in Primary 1-3 were amazed that their classroom had been messed up! After fixing it all up, we checked the CCTV and discovered that some penguins had broken in and were responsible for the mess! We got busy making posters to see if we could catch these penguins before they made any more mess. Thankfully David found one in the main school and Josh found one in the mobile. Both boys were rewarded with maltesers for stopping these penguins causing any more drama.

Following instructions to make jelly

These were the instructions we followed

All ready to begin

Breaking up the cubes was hard

Our hands were getting sticky.

We needed an adult to help with the hot water.

We had to keep stirring until they dissolved

We had to add in cold water.

Stirring made our arms sore

We carefully carried it over to the fridge.

We let it set in the fridge for a few hours.

Primary 1,2,3 are taught by Mrs. Killough and Miss McKay.

Fruit Rainbow

In class we have been looking at the topic of 'Ourselves.' We have talked about how to keep our bodies healthy. We decided to make a rainbow of fruit for our snack. Everyone helped wash and cut the fruit. We all agreed it was very yummy, some people tried fruits that they had never had before.
