Merry Christmas!

Well done P6/7, you have worked very hard this term, and without the normal highlight of the Christmas show it’s been a very different build up to Christmas. You’ve got a couple of weeks off now, so take time to relax and enjoy the Christmas festivities. Online learning is due to start on Monday 11th January, and hopefully you’ll all be back in school before too long.

Thank you all for your very kind and generous presents – they are really very much appreciated, and I look forward to opening them when I get home!

Take care, stay safe and healthy, and have a very merry Christmas!

Party Time….

Just a reminder that the P6/7 class party will take place tomorrow. Pupils should wear their party clothes to school for the day. We will also be having our Christmas lunch tomorrow. It’s all getting a bit festive!

Christmas Window Display

P6/7 have worked really hard over the last two days to create a fantastic Christmas window display. The display will be our Abernethy entry to the Rotary Club competition for local schools. The rules stated that the display needed to be on a ‘traditional’ theme, include a Christmas tree, and incorporate recycled material. The pupils decided to base their design on the four themes of Advent, and have used recycled newspaper as well as lots of odds and ends of paper from our art cupboard. Well done everyone for a great effort, the display looks great!

The First Days Of December

For the last week in November we learnt all about three festivals – St Andrew’s Day, Guru Nanak Gurpurab and Thanksgiving. We made comic strips to show the stories of these festivals and also performed some freeze-frame drama scenes to show parts of the stories.

Last Tuesday was first of December and the start of Advent! We learnt all about the traditions of Advent and we made an Advent calendar. We all drew a picture to fill the doors of the calendar. It is shaped like a tree and has sweets in every door!

After that we have had a busy few days in p6/7 like on Wednesday and Thursday we did a key assessment task. Today we had a Christmas jumper day.
