P7A discovered new technology called Google SketchUp. You can design 3D shapes of any type and even make your own!

Mark made a bit of a wacky shape but obviously he likes it!

Ross discovered that you could colour them in.

It looks like Connor and Rhiannon made a wheel.

Some of the boys were playing foot ball in the snow and they probably got very cold!

We were writing our names in the snow and having a lot of fun.

Eilidh and Laura were exhausted from playing in the snow!

The girls were having so much fun they started to jump up and down.
