We were lucky to have Claire from Mini First Aid deliver First aid training on Monday. We learnt how to put someone in the recovery position, CPR, how to deal with a cut, a burn and if someone is choking.
We participated in athletics activities outside in the field using hurdles, javelin and running. Then we went to the garden to replant our potatoes into pots.
We cleared the planters in the garden then planted carrots and flowers. We picked up lots of rubbish and tided up the garden. Great work P4/5!
Primary 7 demonstrated their leadership skills by setting up, organising and participating in PE activities for and with P4/5.
We joined an online RHET session with an Ayrshire Potato Farmer who told us all about the process of planting, growing and harvesting potatoes. We contributed questions online during the presentation to deepen our understanding then we completed a persuasive writing task to create a poster to persuade people about the goodness and benefits of potatoes.
When the sun was shining we took the opportunity to run the daily mile, play ball games, skip, build, create and play games together.
As part of our Social Studies topic, Scotland, we explored the production of oats from field to bowl then we made some delicious Scottish porridge 🏴
We have been developing our dribbling and passing skills in basketball. This week the focus has been on shooting and practising a lay up. Everyone did really were and we had lots of shots on target!
As part of our commitment to Global Goal 13 and to East Ayrshire Clean Green Award and Eco Schools Scotland we went on a local community litter pick.
Today we were exploring foods that are healthy and unhealthy. We identified which ones we should have more or less of and chose foods that could be a healthy lunch choice. We discussed the impact of choosing too many unhealthy foods and why they are unhealthy.
