Life in term 2 has been great so far. We have doing lots of exciting things. Mr. Finlay still hasn’t improved his jokes but we'll get over that!

In Maths we have been doing shape and space. We have been using clixi to make 3D shapes and have been making their nets e.g. hexagonal based pyramid and lot’s more. We have just finished working on percentages.

In English we have been working on our very own Mini-Macbeth. In it we have got a booklet to rewrite the story in our own words. It is quite gory in some parts eg. Like when Macbeth gets his head chopped off! In P7 we have been reading Michael Mupurgo he is a very good author he has wrote loads of great stories such as, Kensuke’s Kingdom, Private Peaceful and War Horse.

In P.E we have been busy with football every Friday with Jim Hagan and Tommy Wright from Ballymena United, we have been learning lots of skills such as passing, dribbling and looking for space on the pitch. The netball girls have played 3 matches unfortunately they have lost 2 matches but wish to do well in the next few matches. The footballers have been quite successful lately Mr.Finlay is a very good coach!

In History we have been studying Victorian crime and punishment it is interesting to find out the weird crimes and cruel punishments. Such as stealing your brothers clothes and stealing a turnip etc for that you would sometimes get sent to Australia or hung!!

At the minute in Geography we are learning about Australia. We are learning about the animal like the Yabby it is cannibalistic (eats other yabbies). We are also learning about the structure, landscapes and states. Did you know there is a place in Australia called Wagga Wagga?

In Science we are learning about Energy. We are leaning about fossil fuels, gases and oils. They are all examples of non-renewable energy. We are doing Heart Start to. We are learning how to deal with serious bleeding, unconscious, conscious and choking casualties.

In Art at the moment we are painting our very own witches masks from Macbeth. It is very enjoyable and fun! We also can give our witches some crazy hair! Blue hair green hair and more!
