Zoo Animals

Here are some photos of Sarah teching the primary 1 – 3’s a game called Zoo Animals which she learned at Brownies. The children all enjoyed learning the game.

On Friday the entire school had a fun morning of baking and other activities. The children made cupcakes with Mrs Park, rice crispy cakes with Mrs Mann, jelly with Miss Johnstone and fruit cocktails. A great time was had by all and the children took some wonderful photographs of the morning which are attached below.

Zoo Topic

Last term primary 1 to 3 children were learning about zoo’s for their topic. The children thought about the different jobs people would have in a zoo and made up job descriptions and job applications. They were then put into groups and carried out pretend interviews with each other.
