Help for Heroes!

A group of enterprising pupils from room 9 have been busy last week fund raising for Help for Heroes.

They made some yummy biscuits which they sold at break time last Thursday. They also sold some fat balls for feeding wild birds, which they made themselves too.

They made very eye catching posters to publicize the biscuit sale.

Well done !

Huntly Castle Junior Tour Guides

The P6 Tour Guides have started giving some Tours again.

They willn be passing their job over to the P5s soon. The P5s have been auditioned to see how good they are standing in front of a crowd of people and reciting something and now they are all going through training! Some Tour Guides have non-speaking parts which means they will act out what is being said in the script!

The script will be getting changed as parts of the Castle are getting done up!

Tree Planting 2013

Every class from p4 to p7 has been tree planting last week.We planted black thorn,hazelnut,wild cherry and pine and we did it in the meadows.We had to dig the whole with a fancy shovel and made sure the roots were covered and patted it down and then put a bit of wood what is called a stake beside it  and then put a tree guard around it. When we get older we will have fun watching them grow. I think every one had fun and so did I!

Living And Growing

P6’s have been learning about living and growning. It’s about our bodies and the difference between a boy and a girl. P6A has it on Tuesday afternoon,P6B has is on Friday afternoon every week!

Tadpoles

Last Monday P4c got some frog spawn for their classroom. The spawn soon started to hatch with the warmth of the room, and they now have lots of tadpoles. The class are keeping a diary to record the changes they observe in the tadpoles. They are hoping they will have some froglets by the end of term, and are wondering if they could walk to the Bin Forest to release them into the wild.

The class have been carrying out research about the tadpoles and made eye catching posters about their findings. They gave a talk to the class about what they had found out.
