On Monday all of P1-7 worked with Mrs Graham, Minnie and Mrs Storrie on a group challenge.
After reading “The Scarecrows’ Wedding” the children were given the task of creating a picture with at least 4 different 2D shapes. Lots of super team work happened , with discussion about which different shapes suited each part of the scarecrow. The older children were also excellent at leading the younger ones.
It’s the 1st of October already and it was so windy today here in Borgue!

Borgue P4-7 took part in World Oceans Day today. We watched a live assembly and then looked at the theme of this year- Life and Livelihood . We understood the importance of fishing but also over fishing and by products . We then watched a live presentation on the importance of sharks and although this was a little tricky to understand we found out that sharks are so important, to keep the seas and oceans balanced and diverse.
Here is the link to the video we watched and our questions being answered LIVE!
