Fire Station Visit
The boys and girls in P1 had a special visit last Friday (4th Oct). The y were all excited to see the Fire Engine and meet some Firefighters. They told the children their role is the community and what they do to help us.
Police Station Visit for P.1
Primary One had a super visit to Stranraer Police station on Tuesday morning as part of “People who help us in our community”. The fresh and breezy walk wakened us up and we were ready to learn by the time we arrived. We split into two groups and one group went with PC Allison to see the cells and learned all about the job of the Police looking after people who are arrested. They also saw all the CCTV cameras in actions around Stranraer. The other group talked to PC McFern about his work in Public Order and got to see him wear all his protective clothing. The two groups then swapped over. The children were able to tell me lots that they had learned when we returned to school. PC Allison will visit us on 5th November with a police car as we were unable to see the cars on this visit.

Bubbly Maths
Today (2nd October) P3, P5 and P6 attended Stranraer Academy to see Bubbly Maths. They met Bubbles the Clown who introduced them to different ways of using balloons for Maths.
Each show from Bubbly Maths showed pupils that maths can be fun, engaging and applied to a huge range of areas such as doubling and halving, area, volume and length through the use of balloons and bubbles.
Here is the recipe to make the bubble mixture for yourselves at home.
Nursery: Stay and Play
In Nursery this week we invited families in to Stay and Play. The children enjoyed showing their families around the nursery and playing in all their favourite areas.
