P5M stuck their poppies made during yesterday’s lesson onto paper plates and added posters to make a lovely classroom display to mark Remembrance Day.
The children choose which area of the classroom they wanted their display to go and helped decorate it themselves. Lest We Forget

Today P5M were very respectful as they learned about Remembrance Day. They heard the story of Jack Cantwell who was in the navy during the Battle of Okinawa in Japan in 1945 and a year later he was scoring goals for Celtic FC.
We even tried on Jack’s Atlantic Star war medal 🥇

Great to welcome P5M back to school today 🤩
Just sending out a gentle reminder to all parents and carers to ensure your child has a raincoat or jacket with them every day until spring term as the weather is unpredictable.
Thank you for your help and understanding 😊

P5M have our class award afternoon tomorrow. Children are allowed to bring a change of clothes and a small snack, if they would like to. But no nuts, please 😊

P5 really did make us proud during the visit from members of Food Train. Feedback from the children were that they really enjoyed it, learned some new things, they loved the stories/games shared & felt a sense of community. Here are some snaps from our class photographers. 🌟#WallacestoneChangeMakers

Ask Primary 5 if you want to learn more about our new friends;about the amazing work done by The Food Train; and about how our young people are change-makers: starting with making a difference in our local community 🤩
