Yesterday afternoon p6s/j had art we had to paint our 3D landscapes to make them stand out instead of having a plain landscape. First to make them we had to draw on a piece of cardboard of what we were going to do, then we got paper and scrunched them up to make what we drew then we covered it up in paper then we let it dry. Finally the next time we had art we painted it. And it came out nice.

Today we did gym. We played tunnel rounders and only a few people won. There where three teams. When we went in we practice balancing the ball on the bat and then practiced bouncing it up and down. Then we got split into our teams and our team was first to field. The next time we had to sit out and the other two teams swapped round and then when they had finished we got to go on. We got to bat and run, I go through.

Primary 6sj have been writing Performance Poems, you can read them on the Sandaig Poets Blog Here is Dales poem as a taster:War Song
We have guns and swords
But soldiers still feel
Anger and fear in there
Hearts, Hearts, Hearts
We have cannons and crossbows
But we still feel
Evil and Greed in our
Hearts, Hearts, Hearts
We have strong and weak
But soldiers are still
Scared Afraid in our
Hearts, Hearts, Hearts
We have weapons of mass destruction
But we still feel the
Evil that conquers are
Hearts, Hearts, Hearts
We have memories of this evil time
But we all still feel the
Sins that we did in our
Hearts, Hearts, Hearts

Then Bailie Hanzala Malik gave a speech as well. He was the head of international school connections. He said thank you to all the children who came and all of the teachers as well, and that we should thank our teachers for all the hard work they put into teaching us.

How does our Garden go is a new picture gallery at Sandaig. Each day one primary six goes to the Sandaig Garden and takes a few photos. They choose one to post to the How does our Garden go gallery.
Hopefully this will let visitors to our site see how the garden changes through the season and it will also let the children experiment with photography.
You can leave comments on the photo and let the children know what you think.

Every day a ninja will use his or hers ninjaness to walk into a class room wasting energy and STRIKE! Or you can say they just stick a star on the button to turn the thing off.
We made posters to warn the school of the NINJAS!
See our Eco Ninja posters.
