In French, the children have been learning the days of the week. They learned them within a song and then had a go at playing a board game where they had to try and get to the end of the track by correctly translating the words. A mistake sent them back to the beginning!

In humanities, the children began their new geography topic of map skills. They began by trying to draw their own bird’s-eye view map of the school and quickly realised that getting the scale correct is tricky. They then had a go at finding their way around a treasure map by following compass directions and taking note of the scale.

In maths, they have been working on division. After the link was made to division, the children answered questions with remainders by counting up their tables and then had a go at the bus stop method for larger calculations. There was also time to put these skills to use by working together on word problems.

The children were also very attentive during their English comprehension lesson which was all about Remembrance Day. They watched a short clip from the weekend and found out why it is always held at 11 o’clock on the 11th November.

Three of the Form 4 pupils took part in the Music Assembly and sang to the Main School. Very well done to all the singers on their excellent performances!
