The Comets have had lots of fun this week taking part in different Scottish themed activities and participating in a Robert Burns’ afternoon.

We have been learning all about the Scotland’s national flower and created these beautiful Thistle art pieces.

For our Burns’ afternoon we got our dancing shoes on and listened and danced to different Pipers. We then had a Burns’ dinner and had the opportunity to try haggis, neeps, tatties and tried a little bit of Irn Bru.

**Successful learners**

The Comets enjoyed creating these shaving foam rain clouds. We gathered all of the items needed for the experiment using a list and listened to instructions carefully.

Before we started the children made predictions on what they thought might happen during the experiment. There were lots of discussion around the weather and what happens when real clouds get too full.

The children were all effective contributors and tidied up the equipment and their work stations afterwards.

The Comets have been learning about what it means to be kind. There was lots of discussions on how we can be kind to people around us. We looked at different kind phrases and situations these might be used. The children then created crackers of kindness and selected phrases to put inside. Each child picked someone they would like to give a cracker of kindness to.
