Primary 5 Trip to the National Museum
On the 11th of October we went to the National Museum of Scotland as part of our classification and food webs work in our Topic. These are some of the exhibits that we saw as we explored.
We also got to play with the interactive exhibits and we had time in the interactive area on the top floor of the Natural World section. Everyone had a great time and we wished we could have stayed longer!

Christmas Concert
Today we had our first rehearsal at James Gillespie’s High School for the Christmas concert. We will be taking part in a performance of Africa by Toto and Jingle Bell Rock with other P7s from our cluster at the Usher Hall on 19th December. Please do help your child practise these songs at home.
Sportshall Athletics Competition
On Monday 30th October some of our P7s went with some of the P6s to Meadowbank for the city wide Sportshall Athletics competition. This was the culmination of several weeks training and selection, and the children should all be very proud of their achievements. Both behaviour and sportsmanship were excellent and everyone taking part tried their best.
Primary Engineers
On the afternoon of Wednesday 15th of November P7 will be going to the National Museum of Scotland to take part in the Primary Engineers event.
We will have the opportunity to hear engineers and inventors in Scotland talk about their life and work, visit the galleries for further inspiration and then answer the question If you were an engineer, what would you do? to be entered into the nationwide Leaders Award competition.
