All of P3 were planting trees in the school grounds with Norma Hunter as part of “the edible walk”.
I think all of them had fun! They planted apple ,plum and pear trees. We are looking forward togetting fruit on the trees that everyone can enjoy eating!
The idea behind the edible walk is that people in the community can walk around Huntly, from Battlehill down to the Deveron and taste food that has been planted along the way.
P6 are away to Stoneywood to do a cricket championship for Gordon Primary, all of us have wished them good luck! They have been praticing hard with a really good cricket coach called Neil Nicol. We have got our fingers crossed that they come back to school with a trophy. The cricketers seemed happy that they have got this far and we are happy for them too!

All the primary 4 classes are taking it in turn to visit the Bin Forest Quarry. P4C went yesterday (10th June) and had a great day.
Primary 4B are selling delicious and healthy fruit kebabs and homemade jewellery on Wednesday 12th to raise money for their trip to the Bin Quarry. The fruit kebabs will cost 50p and the jewellery 20p.
P4C were visited this week by Celia and Junior, two Cuban artists who are visiting Huntly for 3 months for a residency with Deveron Arts. The artists are developing a project about friends and looking at if and how Facebook has affected friendships.
Celia and Junior talked to Primary 4 about their friendships and what they felt a good friend is. All children agreed that they would much rather play with their friends face to face than talk to them online.
The children asked Celia and Junior about Cuba. They found out about celebrations and festivals (they were surprised to hear that Cubans don’t get Easter eggs at Easter!) , weather, Cuban wildlife, food and music. They looked at a globe to see where Cuba is.
P4C really enjoyed meeting Celia and Junior and making friends with them!
The lucky nursery pupils are lucky to be sharing thier classroom with lots of interesting creatures.
They have young frogs, which they reared successfully from tadpoles earlier this term.
They also have stick insects. The nursery pupils find it fascinating seeing how cleverly the insects camouflage themselves.
They are looking forward to their next arrivals; they are incubating hens’ eggs, which are due to hatch next Wednesday. They discovered that if they hold the eggs up to the light they can see the chick moving around inside it!
