On Friday 3rd June we walked up the distillery path to our favourite beach Port Ben with our buckets and spades and a delicious picnic. We made sandcastles and decorated them with shells and seaweed. Mrs MacDonald came and joined us for our picnic.
Our visit to Islay Airport
This term we have been learning about journeys and holidays so as one of our our end of term outings we visited Islay Airport. We climbed the tower, put our bags through security, went through security ourselves, we even got to sit in the fire engines and spray water from the hoses. The highlight of our trip was sitting in Mr Sandy MacTaggart’s plane and talking to Pat the pilot. We had a great time with all our children and their parents.
Our woods visit
We visited Laphroaig Woods to look for sign of spring, the buds were just beginning to appear on the trees. We gathered different sized sticks to made a den. We played on the slope where we made a super slide and we had a yummy picnic too.
Our visit to the RSPB
We visited the RSPB reserve at Gruinart to bring together everything we have been learning about birds with our buddies from P1/2. We travelled by bus and took a packed lunch, we had a great day.
Our Frogs
We have been learning about the life cycle of the frog. We have looked after our tadpoles and have watched them change into frogs. Mr MacIntyre helped us release them back into the pond.
