Bogendreip

Some of the P5 went on a trip to Bogendreip on Monday 26th of May. Bogdnedreip is where the poem came from. We had a long walk through the forest.The art and design team drew some pictures of the forest. The broadcasting team recorded some sounds of the forest. Some of us had never been in a forest before. We even found a frog! We now have lots of ideas, sounds and pictures for our animated film.

Three Wishes

Primary 5 have created their own logo for Three Wishes. First we had a class discussion about logos. Then we drew ideas for a logo. We got time to look at them and choose our favourites. We chose our three favourite designs and put a tick on the paper. Then we counted which had the most ticks. Alex Simth’s logo won.
