Dumfries House with P5i

What a wonderful day was had by all.

The weather was beautiful and children had a great time in the fresh air – especially  at the STEM water park. Our budding Archimedes had a blast opening and closing the water chutes and altering the flow of water. Which was bitter cold. However undeterred,  they ran up and down the hill splashing  water everywhere calling instructions to each other as the flow altered.  A true hands-on learning experience.  It was then on to the play park where they enjoyed the zip wire, roundabout, climbing frame … and the freedom to run around and play together.

After lunch it was the sweet making workshop and under the dusty cloud of icing sugar, pupils could be seen weighing, mixing, stirring and rolling to produce their own, unique version of peppermint creams.  Well, that’s what they  set out to make.  I hope all parents got the opportunity to taste them.

Thank you very much to our 3 parent helpers who came along to help and support.  We couldn’t have done it without you .

Here are some photos from the sweet workshop.
