Pupils and staff dressed up in green today for “Go Green for Halloween” to support NSPCC charity.
We had some activities organised by class Islay to raise money for NSPCC. The sensory challenge box was a particular favourite and the chocolate dipped popcorn and apples went down a treat.
Brogan helped out at the creative corner and encouraged her friends to create a Halloween picture.
Yesterday pupils met the Minister of Public Health and Sport Aileen Campbell – Pupils helped design the privacy curtains and other Art work throughout the centre. The new building is on the site of our old school.
Thank you to everyone who took apart in our empty classroom day to inspire learning and play outside.
Every class took part throughout the day and we had
various activities planned. We had football training with Ross from
Giffnock Soccer Club, bug hunting, fire pit and loads more.
Thankfully the sun was shining and we all explored our
outdoor environment, learning and having fun at the same time.
mAIRwavesFM have posted a new recording.
Listen as class Harris talk discuss their Harvest topic.
Class Lewis made Lemon Squash Soup this afternoon from the harvest crop that our parent ground force team grew.
They had to wash the crop, chop all the ingredients, stir, cook and blend.
The aroma was amazing and everyone enjoyed having a taste.
Lovely interactions during an individual dance session with Ruth, one of our dance specialists.
C was so engrossed in the session and initiating some of his own moves for Ruth to copy. He was so proud of himself.
Well done
