Thank you to everyone who came to our Friday BookBug session with Miss Macdonald.

Thank you to everyone who came to Mrs Murray and Miss Bell’s first BookBug session. We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did 💛🧡

At BookBug today we carried learnt a song in makaton.

Some of the children enjoyed a BookBug session  this afternoon with Miss Bell and Mrs Murray.

This week Mrs Rafay taught us how to make spring rolls.  We had to chop spring onions, red peppers and cabbage.  It was then cooked and we added some spices and other ingredients to add flavour.

When the mixture had cooled we put some on the pastry sheets and then rolled them and folded them to make our spring rolls.  Then we fried them.  When they were cool enough we were able to taste them!

We chatted about who had tasted spring rolls before and who may have helped to make them at home.

Nothing better than a wee story to finish a busy day.

We used wallpaper and oil pastels to create some big art tonight. #Starcatchers

On the 21st of January we all travelled to the Royal Concert Hall to see a concert that was part of the Celtic Connections festival.  We boarded big coaches and took the short journey into the city centre.  We enjoyed the music and clapped along to the beat.  Some of us became quite tired and fell asleep! We also enjoyed watching some Tom and Jerry in the way home on the bus.

Well we are now half way through our Gastronomers Pathway.  We have been practising our chopping skills, measuring and mixing skills.  Last week we made some Leek and Tattie soup which we were able to serve to some parents at pick up time.

This week we made scones which required getting our hands into the dough to mix together all of the ingredients.  We then rolled it out and used the cutters to make the round shape that we needed.  We baked them in the super fast oven and were able to taste them while they were still warm.  We shared what we had left at pick up time and they all disappeared!
