A few more things S2 pupils wanted to tell you about.

How we celebrate Christmas:
"My name is William. I celebrate Christmas with my whole family. We wake up at 8am in the morning to open our presents. We then have Christmas Dinner at my Gran's house - we eat turkey"
This is just one way people celebrate Christmas in Scotland. Some people go to church on Christmas Day, but not everyone.
This picture shows someone standing next to their Christmas tree, with presents under the tree.


Sports we play in school:
We have a school football team. We also play basketball, table tennis, rugby, touch rugby, dodgeball and badminton. We also have dancing. This is a picture of table tennis.
 
Gymnastics
Gymnastics is a sport which a lot of people have as a hobby outside of school because there isn’t a club in school.
Gymnastics is a fun sport, but can also be very dangerous. In a traditional gymnasium (gymnastics gym) there is a balance beam, which is a thin walkway, which is high up and gymnasts are expected to perform skills on it without falling off. Another piece of equipment is the vault, which is like a big soft table again quite high up, which is used to jump onto, then jump off, or jump straight over without stopping at all. The bars are another piece of equipment. In men’s gymnastics, they do something called “even bars” and women do the “uneven bars”.
