Today we looked at the seeds we’d bought to see what was ready to sow/plant in February. We then read the advice on the back of the packets before working in groups to plant potatoes, beans & radishes in our allotment 🥔 🌱
This week we’ve been busy planting strawberries and lavender in our allotment, and installing a ‘ladybird tower’ to encourage wildlife to our outdoor space 🍓🐞🌿
In P2c we decided to create our own allotment in the playground outside our classroom. Last week we used the iPads to research different fruit and vegetables that we could grow, to see what we’d be able to harvest before the summer holidays. 🥕🍓 Having done that, today we had 2 tons of top soil / compost delivered! We then used it to fill up our raised beds 😀🌱

Today Primary 2 were developing their gymnastics skills using a vault, springboard and benches, as well as practicing different balances 🤸♀️
As part of our outdoor learning today, we planted 420 daffodil bulbs in and around the trees in the field beside our school! 🌱🌼☀
(Apologies for any mucky clothes 😅)
Today at Friday Fun we played dodgeball with fake snowballs 😁⛄ #HappyFriday #SnowballFight
Here are some highlights from our first week in Primary 2 😀
