Tree of Knowledge Visit
On Tuesday we had a visit from The Tree of Knowledge. Â Not only was Stuart very funny, he taught us lots of new things about self regulation.
There are two drivers but only one steering wheel.
Who are you? Â Mr Wait A Minute or Mr Right Now?
The test with Jenga pieces was to build a tower as high as possible and get the most points. You have to decide when to get it measured. Â What strategy did you use?
Did you build a small tower first or did you risk trying to build a higher tower?
Each child was given a Starburst at the start and was told they could eat it but if they didn’t and it still had the wrapper on, then they would get a second one!
How did you do?!

Thankyou! 🙂
E-mail address
P5a – Please remember to bring an e-mail address into school tomorrow. We have unfortunately had to postpone this activity for 2 weeks because children have forgotten to. Â It is an important part of our learning and covers an experience and outcome at the second level that must be taught. Please help us achieve this.
Thank you!
E-mailing
Next Wednesday during I.C.T. our focus will be on typing and sending e-mails.
Please choose 1 or 2 people you wish to send an e-mail to and who you know will send you a response.
Remember to note down their e-mail address and bring it with you to school.
OUTDOOR LEARNING CLOTHING – AMENDMENT
Different outdoor learning experiences offer opportunities for personal and learning skills development in areas such as communication, problem solving, information technology, working with others and thinking skills. Learning in the outdoors can make significant contributions to literacy, numeracy and health and wellbeing. Therefore, outdoor learning offers many opportunities for learners to deepen and contextualise their understanding within curriculum areas, and for linking learning across the curriculum in different contexts and at all levels.
(Learning and Teaching Scotland, 2010)
At Kirkhill Primary we strive to provide regular outdoor learning experiences for all our children. As a school we have a fantastic outdoor space which can be used across the curriculum to develop our children socially, emotionally and academically. During last session we had a super Science Garden added to our fantastic Eco garden and we can’t wait to explore here and other areas of our school grounds!
To allow all pupils to access outdoor learning in the changeable Scottish weather, we would appreciate the children bringing in outdoor clothing (wellies, rain jackets and trousers) on days they will be learning outdoors. Class teachers will let you know via the class blogs the days that these are required so that you can keep them at home on other days. Also, if you have any spare items which your child is not using any more and you are happy to give these to the school, please put this in a bag with it clearly labelled as spare clothing for the school to allow items to be shared with our families.
Thank you in advance with your support with outdoor learning and please get in touch if you have any questions. This support will allow our children to have a fantastic time learning outdoors come rain or shine!

To allow all pupils to access outdoor learning in the changeable Scottish weather, we would like to ask if pupils could please bring in a named bag with old wellies, trousers (waterproof if possible but other old trousers if not) and a rain jacket. Please do not buy any new items! If you do not have any of these items which could be left in school throughout term time, please send a note to your child’s teacher and we will organise this for you. If you could please ensure that all items of clothing and wellies have your child’s name and class clearly marked, that would be fantastic. Also, if you have any spare items which your child is not using any more and you are happy to give these to the school, please put this in a bag with it clearly labelled as spare clothing for the school to allow items to be shared with our families.
