Christmas Post at HPS!

There is excitement about the posting and receiving of Christmas cards in school. Thanks to our P7 pupils who will be sorting and distributing thousands of cards to classes in the coming days. Thanks to everyone who has bought charity stamps in aid of the Cedar  Foundation.

Iron Man Invasion in P7!

P7 have really enjoyed reading The Iron Man by Ted Hughes. To finish off our novel, they made some wonderful Iron Men out of recycable materials. Well done everyone!

Intergenerational Project - Summer the Pony

A group of P7 pupils enjoyed meeting Summer the pony this week. Along with the residents at Newcroft Lodge, the children were able to brush and feed Summer while learning about all the special jobs she does at care homes and hospices.

Key Stage 1 STEM Workshop

P3 and P4 classes had a great time learning why some items float and some sink. With the help of science, they were able to make a paper clip float and explore why a satsuma floats with its skin on but then sinks after it has been peeled.

They then had the opportunity to build a boat out of plasticine and were challenged to see how many marbles it could carry before it sank.

 

Thank you again to Sentinus for coming in to deliver the sessions

P4 Sports Week

P4 managed to get the hottest week of the term to have their Sports Week! With plenty of water they headed out each day to participate in a range of relay races and individual events. There was great team spirit and it was lovely to have parents join us to spectate on Tuesday. Here is a selection of photos.
