Health Choices-Food to Fuel our Bodies and Brains

As a special treat to mark the end of our first term in P1 and as part of our Fit Thursday learning, we enjoyed this enormous fruit salad together in the outside classroom. It was so big we had seconds and in some cases even thirds 😀 There was 12 different fruits in it, some we knew already, some we had tasted and some we tried for the first time. We sorted, counted and compared the different fruits. We noticed they were all different in size, colour, feel, shape, smell and of course taste! But they did have some things in common such as they are healthy, can be cut and begin to get rotten after some time. Lots of great ideas from our class! 🍊🍓🍍🍐🍎🍉🍑🥝🍌🍏🍋🥭

First School Lunch


Before our first full day at school, we had the opportunity to visit the dining hall with our grown ups from home to try out the meals on offer. We learned to be independent- carried our own trays to the table we wanted to sit at and tried some new foods. We even tidied up our own things once we had finished! Looking forward to full days at school next week! 

St Ninian’s – our school is like a big family


We have been settling so well into P1. We know that just like our family home, who love and care for us, our school family are there to keep us safe and help us to grow and learn. We have been sharing a little bit about our wonderful families at home with our class by creating our big family tree display.  Thank you to our grown ups for sending in these lovely photos. Our tree is still growing each day as more snaps come in!

We remember our ‘Minnie Manners’

The story ‘Minnie the Monkey’ helped us to share our ideas about how we can all work together to learn and play safely in Primary 1. We learned about the words respect and kindness and how we can show these to everyone through our words and actions. We have settled on 4 things to try to do each day…

Respect my right to play, learn, be safe and be heard!

We made this little monkey for the wall to help us to remember these.
