Primary 7 have been learning about the properties of light. Primary 7 were investigating refraction of light. We were experimenting how light bends when it travels between air, water and glass. Objects seen through these materials may look bent or distorted due to refraction.
Today, Primary 3 had a special visit from Mrs Houston. She helped us to prepare and cook our own vegetable soup. We learned how to peel, chop, cube and grate vegetables so that they could be included in our soup. We also enjoyed a tour of the school kitchen and learned more from Mrs Houston during a question and answer session. We are looking forward to taking our soup home and sharing it with our families. This learning links to our class learning of food and farming and is going to link to our writing as we will now write our own vegetable soup recipes. If you’re not sure how to make soup, you know who to ask! 
Primary 3 had a fantastic excursion to the Dumfries House farm. We enjoyed a farm tour where we learned about each animal, fed the chickens and ducks and even got to stroke a pig! We also learned how to use ingredients to make scones. We had to cut chives from the garden and used these in our savory scones. We made our own butter by taking it in turns to shake full cream as fast as we could for at least 10 minutes. This was a very worthwhile learning experience which we all enjoyed.
Owen from Zoolab brought his animal friends in for a visit. We learned lots of new facts and loved our hands on experience. We were all very brave! 
What an exciting morning! We had a super time meeting all of our new slimy, furry and slithering friends.
