Nurture – Building a Boat for St. Andrew
On Tuesday 30th November we learned all about St. Andrew, the Patron Saint of Scotland. As St. Andrew was a fisherman we decided to design and craft a boat that we hoped would float.
Using a set of suggested instructions and different craft materials we set about our task…
Here we are with our boats, feeling proud of our creations.
We were able to build boats that floated, yay!
Great job boys! 🙂
Nurture – St. Andrew’s Day “Neeps n Tatties” Online Story

Nurture – Symbiot
Jackie wrote a story about The Symbiot. It was a lab experiment that went wrong . Spaceman Luke water got taken over like a symbiot and now he eats his crew but only the bodies. His tongue splits from his body and goes in search of the heads of his crew. The tongue has a mind of its own and when it fully matures the tongue goes to find the host aka Luke water. He only eats eyes so he can gain the power of sight he now grows spikes and a serpent shaped mouth with teeth as sharp as barbarian swords!!!
story to be continued . . .
Nurture – Making WW2 Spitfires
We are reading the story Grandpa’s Great Escape. In the story Grandpa was a WW2 Flying Ace, so we decided to make our own Spitfires.

We were really pleased with them, now to try and see if they fly!
