SLC2 at Dumfries House

We have recently spent two half days at Dumfries House. We have been working in the garden and helping to tidy up and prepare it for the new season. We have learned about looking after plants. We were using some of the garden tools and had to make sure we were doing so safely. We planted our own broad beans and brought them back to school to watch them grow in class. For all of our hard work we were rewarded with some time in the maze. We eventually made it to the middle, after finding a few dead ends!

SLC2 Butterfly Feeders

As part of our Living Things topic we explored the outdoor classroom for mini beasts. We found lots of white butterflies. We decided to make feeders for them. We had to make them bright and used fruit as a tasty snack. When we were placing our feeders in and around the area we found a seagull egg!

SLC2 Cook School

Our class visited the Cook School in Kilmarnock.  We followed instructions from the head chef Stuart to make scones.  It was a messy job but we all had fun.  Miss Robertson’s favourite part was when we got to taste our baking with jam, cream and berries.
