On a Wednesday afternoon P3 will be participating in ‘Outdoor Learning’.
Today we got our wellies on and we went on a hunt for some Autumn leaves. We had so much fun!
Back in class we enjoyed an Art lesson using our favourite leaf. We had to study the markings and colours on the leaf.
Pupils should remember to bring wellies or outdoor shoes every Wednesday to allow them to participate.
Today P6A headed to Dumfries House to visit Valentin Farm. The children had a great day and learned lots along away. Highlights from today were ‘milking’ a cow, feeding the animals and holding chicks.
Thanks to our parent helpers for their fantastic assistance today!
Primary 6 will be working with two Dean Castle Rangers on Tuesday 2nd October and Tuesday 23rd October. In these sessions, the children will participate in tree identification and den building activities at the Foxes area near the school. These activities link into our John Muir Award and the Wilderness Wars novel that we are currently reading in class.
Parents, carers and grandparents are welcome to join us on these sessions. If you can come along then please complete the form below.
Children should wear outdoor clothing to school on these days but have their school uniform in their school bags to change into afterwards. Wellies/boots should be worn also. Spare socks are always a great idea!
P6K – 9.15 – 10.45
P6A – 11 – 12.30
