Hi Primary 1

It is Mrs O’Neill here! As lovely as it is to be writing to you, I would much rather be seeing your smiley faces. How are you? How is your learning going? If you are finding anything tricky, please get in touch and we will do our absolute best to help you out. Thank you to everyone who has updated their blog!

I have taken some photos of the sunny walks I have been enjoying. Have you noticed any signs we are moving from spring to summer?

I have noticed the trees are in full leaf and lovely and green right now. If you followed this path in your imagination, who might you meet? A Gruffalo? A talking tree? A little mouse?

I spotted a family of ducks going for a swim. I can count 5 ducks in the pond. Do you know a song about 5 ducks?

Can you see the little black tadpoles in this photo? They were swimming super fast!

Lastly, I saw a beautiful butterfly and it settled on a leaf to enjoy the warm sunshine. Isn’t it pretty?

We don’t just have to look for signs of summer with our eyes, we can also listen with our ears. Listen out for mummy birds singing ‘you can do it’ as their baby birds learn to fly and grasshoppers chirping in the long grass.

Take care, keep safe and stay well everyone.
