Willowbank School, Kilmarnock
This was our class assembly. We had been reading the story “The Enormous Turnip” in class and it was about working together to complete a task, as the farmer could not pull the turnip out of the ground on his own. We all sat at the front of the assembly hall facing our friends. We were able to hold up the different characters in the story. We also made our own enormous turnip to show all of our friends.
* SUCCESSFUL LEARNERS, RESPONSIBLE CITIZENS *
As a class, we have been looking closely at what makes a good friend. We watched short animated clips of different characters and had to state whether we thought they were good friends or not.
We also looked at different images and stated whether the image shown would make a good friend or a not so good friend. We completed this task really well.
SUCCESSFUL LEARNERS
Anthony, Adam, Angus, Jacob, Ethan and Lyle all enjoyed their first lesson all together. We discussed how to care for our environment and then took part in some nature art activities as in introduction lesson to our new subject.
We all came together to enjoy our Macmillan coffee morning and have fun dancing with our friends. We also said a sad farewell and good luck to Mr Bark is away to start a new adventure.
It’s that time again, Christmas card deigns. The boys enjoyed some painting today, they chose the style of penguin they liked the best and used their foot print to personalise their penguin card. The end result will follow tomorrow.
The Snowdrops were responsible citizens joining all their friends for a MacMillan Coffee Morning themed snack. We tasted lots of different green foods for our snack!
The Bluebells demonstrated that they were successful learners as they worked together during a Mini-beast hunt. The pupils were able to find some mini-beasts and match them on their worksheet.
The Bluebells were effective contributors as they made some lovely green cakes to share with some other classes during our Macmillan snack morning. The pupils enjoyed sitting with each other and having a taste of all the lovely green snacks provided by all the classes. 
The Stars Class made Mars Bar cake to share with our friends. We enjoyed sensory activities, had a ‘green’ tea party and made a handprint green frog picture. We also had a visit from Harley, the French bulldog, at Pet Therapy.
The Pine Class learned about the Science of bread making, and the Art and we created a beautiful harvest loaf, for the Harvest Assembly… you will need to take our word for it because Mrs Wilson forgot to photograph it before she froze it!!!
