Well done and thank you to the Pupil Council from Dalbeattie Primary School and Murray, Ewan and Angus from Dalbeattie High School for your input.

As part of our Extreme Earth topic we have been learning about chemical reactions.
Today we carried out several science experiments using vinegar and baking soda to create volcanic eruptions. We made predictions and tried lots of different combinations and methods to discover which one created the best and biggest reaction.
We had great fun but it sure did stink!!!!
Congratulations and well done to Rowan from P3 who won the Council name the gritter competition for the Stewartry Area. Pupils from schools across Dumfries and Galloway were given the opportunity to name some of the council gritters that they see out hard at work over the winter time in our region. Rowan came up with the name Salty Sam and this was chosen as the Stewartry winner. Salty Sam was brought to school today for Rowan and her friends from P3 to see. The pupils also met Wee Dee Gee and got the opportunity to sit in the gritter.
Over the past two weeks while Miss Carson has been on her travels, Mrs Wixon has been in the nursery covering the topic of People Who Help Us. After getting ideas from the children, we planned some fun filled activities together.
We focused on people who help us at home, in school and in the wider community. We went on visits to the Health Centre and Post Office. We also had a visit from the fire brigade, a first responder, a nanny and also some special people who help us in school.
We had some great learning experiences from this topic and would like to thank all of the people for helping us by telling us how they help other people.
