P4-7 Class

Term 4: 2024-25

The last term for our P7 pupils is always exciting, with lots of transition events planned, including a whole week at Alford Academy.  We have also got Kodaly (music) each week, lots of PE activities to get ready for sports day, and we will be learning all about plants.

Term 3: 2024-25

Our topic this term was The Jacobites, and we really enjoyed learning about them.  The P7 pupils had an exciting residential trip where they got to try skiing, snowboarding, tubing, canoeing, swimming, archery and lots more.  The whole class had some rugby taster sessions, organised by Active Schools and Deeside Rugby Club, and we also enjoyed celebrating Pancake Day and World Book Day.

Term 2: 2024-25

The P4-7 class worked hard all term learning lines and practising songs for the school show, which they performed at Craigievar Hall during the last week of term.  Their performance of Roald Dahl's 'Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs' was fantastic and enjoyed by all.

Term 1: 2024-25

We have had a super first term, with all our young people showing our core values of support, ambition, courage and inclusion. Well done everyone!

Term 4: 2023-24

It’s a busy term for the Primary 7 pupils, with lots of events planned to help with the transition to Alford Academy, as well as an exciting residential trip. The whole class are busy rehearsing for a short play which will be performed at the end of term assembly, so several lines to learn and songs to sing. In science, we have been looking at light and sound, and in the lovely weather we get outside to practice for sports day.

Term 3: 2023-24 Session

This term, P4-7 will be focussing on developing skills and knowledge through interdisciplinary learning (IDL). At the end of last term, the children suggested questions that they would like to investigate and, from these, we have selected five to explore over the course of the term.

Term 2: 2023-24 Session

We will be learning about different celebrations and learning songs which will form part of our Christmas show. We will be developing lots of skill through our enterprise project and working through six P’s: Possibilities, Public Preference, Planning, Production, Promotion and (hopefully) Profits. We will continue to develop our understanding of multiplication and division along with understanding money. In Literacy we will be focussing on the skills of persuasive writing, note-taking and scanning. We are also going to be learning some Gaelic, with six ‘live’ lessons from an expert. We are looking forward to hearing how they get on.

Term 1: 2023-24 Session

It’s great to see everyone back in school for what we hope will be another exciting year full of super opportunities for learning.
