We used the construction area to build mazes for the cars to travel around. We had to use the directions – forward, turn left and right.

Health Week – Daily Mile
P1 worked together to complete the challenge of running/walking a marathon. We managed all 26 miles over the week.
Health Week – Massage in the garden
We enjoyed a massage session out in the garden. We practised mindfulness too and used our senses and listened to sounds we could hear, things we could feel.
Health Week – Dentist Visit
Our parent volunteer talked to P1 and P2 all about the importance of tooth brushing.
Some pupils even got to do an experiment to see how well they can clean their teeth.
Health Week – Taekwondo
Thanks to our volunteers from Phoenix Taekwondo who took a session for us where we practised different punches and kicks.
We were lucky enough to see and hold some of the medals and trophies our volunteers have won…World Champs!
Health Week – Open Morning
Thank you to all the parents/carers who came to join our Health Open Morning. We played fruit bingo, working out how many teaspoonfuls of sugar are in some foods and used the laptops to make a healthy lunch box.
Health Week – Drum roll please…Circus skills!
P1 loved their session working with their P7 buddies on a range of circus skills.
Health Week – Yoga
What a lovely way to start a Monday morning with a yoga session with one of our parent volunteers.
Technology
What a fun afternoon in P1! Having learnt about Abu from Kenya, who makes his own car/truck toy using milk bottles and shoe boxes, we decided to make our own. These will also be our entries for the Gala Day Art Competition which had a recycling theme.
After all this hard work, this pupil transferred his skills into our construction area where he made a tractor with a trailer.
Forces Poster using PicCollage
We have been learning about different forces – push, pull and twist.
P1 has to use the camera on the iPads to take photos of these forces in the classroom.
We then used the app, PicCollage to display the photos with captions.
