What a fantastic Sports Day ! Well done to all pupils in Primary 1,2 and 3 . All children participated well and had a fun and enjoyable sports day in the sun. Children took part in team races and then individual races. The team work was fantastic and sporting behaviour shone through. Thank you to all those who joined us today and thank you to staff for organising the event.
Primary 1D went to Rockcliffe as part of their Beach topic.
We jumped on the yellow school bus and took our lunch to have a picnic on the beach.
Chloe: “It was fun having a picnic”
We were going to give the beach a clean. We took litter pickers and gloves and we picked up all the rubbish we could find. We found a lot of bottle tops, bits of plastic, paper wrappers and a lobster skeleton.
Ryan: “It’s fun picking up litter”
We have to pick up our litter at the beach so that the animals don’t get hurt. Animals might get stuck in the litter or they might get sick by eating it.
We worked with James and Judy from the National Trust who taught us all about the animals at the beach and what litter can do to them.
We got to look in the rock pools for crabs and fish and we even found a PRAWN!
At the end, James and Judy taught us a new game called “Prawns and Fishes”. We liked it, it was fun.
