Trash Fashion Show

Primaries six and seven put on a Trash Fashion Show for parents on Wednesday, 11th February. The idea was to show how pupils could use materials they would normally throw away to make fashion items. Both Tony and Coco were there. This is a short clip of the final section entitled Homecoming Scotland 2009. Tony and Coco are wearing outfits from recycled materails. Tony has a kilt and hat and Coco has a hat made from old newspaper. See if you can spot them!

Tony has made a St Valentine's Card

Tony has been helping the children make St. Valentine's cards and fridge magnets. He has also made an outfit for the trash fashion on Wednesday.

Carlos at the swimming pool.

Carlos has had a lovely week in Pulham. On Monday school was closed due to some very snowy weather so he had a day off to relax. He has been joining in with lots of lessons across the school and learning lots of new things.

This afternoon he went to his first swimming lesson with Class 4. As you can see he had all the right equipment. The children said he had a lovely time watching them all in their lessons. He really enjoyed going on the bus to get there and back too. He thought it was a really fun afternoon.

Peace Day

Hello everyone! I'm Andy, from Scotland. These days I am visiting Spain. Although I'm not being very lucky with the weather (it's been a bit snowy lately...) I'm really enjoying my stay here.

Last week we celebrated Peace Day. During the week, some pairs of children (called 'peace messengers') went to all the classes reading 'the day's slogan' (something all the students had to bear in mind during the whole day). We took a picture of one of these moments.

After a week working on collaboration, good behaviour, etc..., last friday we went out and celebrated Peace Day elaborating a 'human drawing': a dove, a rainbow and the word 'Peace' in Spanish ('PAZ'). Marivi, one of the english teachers, took me with her, so that I could enjoy this celebration with all the kids (specially the young ones, who were delighted with my presence!) I hope you like the pictures!

Tony has arrived!

We are delighted to welcome Tony to Scotland. We will make sure he has lots of adventures. Next Wednesday Primaries 6 & 7 are having a trash fashion show. Outfits have been made using recycled materials. Tony has been invited and will have a guest of honour place!

Carlos in England

Carlos is having a lovely time so far in England. He has been enjoying lots of fun school activities and joining the children in lessons. In the Reception / Year 1 class children have a role play area. To celebrate Chinese New Year this is currently a Chinese restaurant. Carlos had a wonderful afternoon playing with the children in there. He has joined the other classes in lessons and on Friday went on a school trip to Duxford Imperial War Museum near Cambridge with Class 5 who are learning about World War 2 in History lessons. Some pictures will be available soon.

He is hoping to have a school dinner this week and go swimming with Class 4 too.

Homecoming Scotland 2009 - Robert Burns

The 25th January is celebrated throughout Scotland as Burns Day. This year is the 250th celebration of his birth. We consider him our National Bard and hold Burns Suppers as a means of reciting his poetry and singing his songs. 'Auld Lang Syne' is probably his best known poem and is often sung at the end of one year into the next. Traditionally, a Burns Supper would have haggis, neeps and tatties as the second course of the meal. The haggis is piped in and 'The Address to the Haggis'is recited. Unfortunately, Tony has yet to arrive in Scotland, so we have used Coco instead. Coco attended the Burns Assembly and went to Burns cottage. We also have a photo of Coco with a Haggis. Coco goes to Alloway, where Robert Burns was born. Robert Burns was born in this house. This is his kitchen. He was born in this bed.His father taught Robert to read. This is Coco with a haggis.Coco enjoys haggis and neeps!
