This poem called Monday's Child was written by Peadar Baker and Aaron MacKenzie
Monday's child is red and white.
Tuesday's child is full of fight.
Wednesday's child won't go to school.
Thursday's child is really cool.
Friday's child breaks all the plates
Saturday's has lots of mates.
And the child that is born on the seventh day is always full of fun and play.
Primary 5,6 and 7 pupils have been looking at lifestyles as a project this term. They made up flags that represent their lives.
These flags were designed by Louise Blair, Liam Douglas, Alasdair Forsyth, Jessica Anderson, Johnathon Hibbard and Sally Garrow.

I like listening to music to help relax me.
I like looking at flowers on a sunny day.
I like listening to the teacher to help me learn.
I like looking at my dogs when they are playing.
I like listening to the birds singing because I listen to them when I go for a walk.
I like looking at the sun when it rises in the morning.

I like the smell of chicken pie because it is crispy.

I like the smell of lollies because I like the taste.

The Magic Box
I will put in my box.
A drop from a gold glassy pool.
A million pound coin from the end of a rainbow.
A leaf from a chocolate jungle.
I will put in my box.
The sound of a scream from the best rollercoaster in the world.
A magic piece of space metal from a spotty alien’s ship.
A hiccup from a talking merkat.
I will put in my box.
A sparkle from the moon in the night.
A money tree from a magic land.
I will put in my box.
The sound of a crunch when a person eats
A shiny shell from Treasure Island.
A bat with no wings and a panda flying.
My box is fashioned from black and gold and ice
With hearts on the lid and secrets in the corners.
Its hinges are the toe joints of monkeys.
I shall ride in my box
On the horizon of the wild Atlantic,
Then land on a sandy beach
The colour of the stars.
By Sally Garrow P5
My Magic Box
I will put in my box
A train in the sky floating
The feel of the fresh wind on my face while sledging
A never-ending bar of chocolate.
I will put in my box
An owl noise made by a breath in a child’s hand
A fistful of gravity
The smell of flowers on a summer day.
I will put in my box
A driving plane
And a flying car
Red chocolate that melts in snow
My box is made of strong steel and unbreakable glass
With a padlock made from the teeth of a sabre-tooth tiger
It hinges are the finger joints of giants.
I shall surf in my box
On snow and snowboard on water
And slide ashore on a prehistoric island
With fire-breathing cavemen.

SNOW
In January 2010 we've had lots of snow. The snow is deep the snow is very slippery. Snow can be good and bad and I'm going to tell you why.
Good Things
|Snow is fun because you bvan sledge down the hill. You can also have snow fights. It's fun because you can also make snow sculptures. You could make snow angels. People get together.
Bad Things
Snow is bad because your pipes can be frozen. The snow can fall on you. The roads are dangerous. Cold icicles fall. Some people on bikes could slip on the ice. You could slip and break a bone. You could fall in the ice.

Nursery had a visit from Paul Kendall. This is what Alex found out about robins
Paul came to tell us about robins.
When birds are thirsty they drink water.
Robins have red tummies, black beaks and brown tails.
Robins have a beak to pick up things.
They eat bugs and worms!!

There was a performance on Friday. On Tuesday a lady called Anne from K'next Generation came to school and we made wind turbines out of k'nex. The children really enjoyed.
