What do you think of our photos? Logan and Euan have added their short reports below too. The weather could have been a bit kinder but we had a mega time! The children were just fantastic – great teamwork, problem solving and willing to give anything a go! They were great fun to be away with 🙂 Reporter – Logan Wilson We went to Carlingwark on the 8/9/16. We headed
On the 14th of September the P5-7 class headed on out to the playground and began to draw angles. Mrs Ferguson took us out to the willow dome and explained the maths we would be doing. After she explained the primary sevens went off to do some recap work and draw an eight point compass. After that they headed back to the willow dome only to see Primary 5/6 measuring their compass angles and writing down
On 13th of September Duncan Brown came to give p5/6/7 a tour around his ambulance. We went in groups of 6 and 7 to see the inside of the ambulance. He took Charlotte , Kirstie , Kayleigh and Finlay’s heart rate reading.

The weather was kind to us which really helped. The boys and girls (and staff!) tried out the jumping pillows, bouncy castles, the very popular ‘choo choo express’, play park, grass sledging, trampolines, donkey rides and the straw barn!
Well, how lucky were we? The constant rain on Sunday didn’t bode well. The drizzle on Monday morning left us with that sinking feeling but in true Leswalt fashion; it all came good!

What a gorgeous day to head to the beach! Ok we were there for some serious beach cleaning but we had so much fun doing this in the sunshine! The minibuses dropped us off at the farm and we all trooped down towards the shore. Once there we were, we were met by Venetia (the lady who organises this) and, once equipped with disposable gloves and litter pickers and sorted into
This morning P2-4 headed outside for some 3D Shape maths. We all got cosied up before we headed outside as it was rather chilly! We were ready to recap our knowledge on cubes, cuboids, spheres and cylinders. We had great fun doing the 3D shape race in teams to sort the everyday objects according to their shape. Check out our photos below! Tomorrow we will be finding out about the
