Well done to our Y5&6 girls who won the tag rugby festival on Friday at Thornensians. Even though the girls have never played rugby before they played fantastic throughout the whole tournament and won every game they played. Well done girls!
Year 2 library visit!
This week, as part of reading week, Year 2 visited the library and braved the weather to have a good read. We loved being able to draw on book trees, read with our friends and listen to a good story. Some of us even helped library staff by keeping shelves tidy and scanning books. We loved our trip to the library and can’t wait to go again!
Class 7 – Faith Day!
Today, Class 7, we have been learning about religion. We have learnt what religion is, as well as the 6 main religions. We then wanted to celebrate faith day by creating posters around religion!
Class 6 impressive first spelling check
A huge shout out to Erin, Paisley, Freya and Aurora who all scored full marks in our first weekly spelling check today and got to choose a treat from Miss Rodgers’ special prize box.
Great job girls! I wonder if any of the boys will score full marks next week?
Faith Day in Class 6
Today in class 6 we tried to answer the question – ‘What is religion?’. We found out that there are 6 major world religions – Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Sikhi, Judaism and Hinduism. We also discovered that although the teachings of each religion are different, all of them share three basic principles. Faith – that what they believe is true, Hope – that by following the teachings of their religion they can make the world a better place and Love – for their God and each other.
The children then collaborated to make a stunning piece of art work and decided that the answer to the question ‘What is religion?’ is a set of rules that people believe will help them live a good life.
Fantastic job Class 6. Proud of you as always.
Class 9 | Faith Day
This afternoon, the children have been looking at the main six religions that are practised throughout the world. We found out what some of the main beliefs are for each religion as well as the different places of worship used by each one.
Class 9 | Wartime Memorabilia
This morning, Myles brought in some interesting items from the Second World War. He showed the class some old wartime ration books as well as some military insignia!
