Willowbank School, Kilmarnock
Today is Children in Need. We wore spots and brought in a donation to give to Children in Need. We had lots of fun with a Pudsey face tuft tray with edible materials. We also went around the infant classes doing lots of Pudsey related activities. We had playdough mats, made masks, finger painted Pudsey’s bandana and decorated Pudsey biscuits. We had lots of fun for a good cause.

The Moonbeams participated in Children In Need activities today and raised some money. They enjoyed some sensory fun with the Magic Carpet and explored objects in water beads. They also made some Pudsey faces and delicious Spotty biscuits.
The Stars class enjoyed lots of fun activities including a Pudsey game, icing biscuits, collage work, cake counting, a story and sensory time. We had a great spotty, dotty day!

The Bluebells class had lots of fun celebrating Children in Need. We drew Blush the bear, finger painted Pudsey’s bandana and coloured by number some Pudsey images.
In the afternoon we moved around the Infant classes enjoying some fun activities including decorating Pudsey biscuits, making Pudsey masks and playing Pudsey bingo and bowling.
We had a fantastic Children in Need day today. We did lots of fun activities like making biscuits, catching Pudsey on the magic carpet and making our very own Pudsey masks. I hope your days was as good as our!
The Transition boys were Successful Learners this week when they learned how to use a die cutting machine to cut intricate designs for the class Christmas snow globe. If you want to see our fabulous design come to the Christmas fayre.
Massive congratulations to four of our Transition boys who recently received their Bronze Duke of Edinburgh’s Award. Last week they received their badges at the Council Awards Evening and this week Mrs Smallwood presented the boys with their certificates at the Secondary Assembly. Well done! They are all Confident Individuals.
The Transition boys were Effective Contributors this week when they were working in the cookery room. They used their literacy skills to follow the recipe and their numeracy skills to weigh and measure ingredients. The boys successfully made delicious chocolate cakes
The Transition boys were Responsible Citizens this week when they took part in their SQA Work Experience class. They used their literacy skills to carefully read each bin label so the contents didn’t get mixed. They also helped to sweep the leaves that had been blown into the school.
Last week because it was Bonfire Night we made our own firework/sparkler inspired treats.
We melted chocolate and the added giant stars and sprinkles to make them look lovely. We let them set and then some of us ate them for our snack.
