Primary 4 were lucky to welcome ladies from a local Barrhead sewing group to teach them the basics of sewing. This was a realitively new skill for most pupils in the class and everyone really impressed with efforts.
Over the next month, children will be learning life skills such as finance, business, cooking, sewing and building. Pupils were able to discuss how sewing is an important life skill. Pupils suggested things like:
– you can mend your own clothes and be more environmentally friendly.
– you can customise your clothes and items.
– the skill of sewing can be used in jobs when you’re older (for example, a surgeon).
Pupils used Binka material, needles and thread to create a running stitch, a cross stitch and sew a button on. Everyone was encouraged to go at their own pace. We listened carefully to the instructions and gave it a go! We showed a lot of resilience and asked lots of good questions. We are delighted to hear so many boys and girls want to continue to try sewing at home. Well done P4!
