Our first week at Forest School, lots of fun, exploring and playing games. It was cold but we were wrapped up warm and ready for it.
Month: November 2024
Anti-Bullying Week
Last week was Anti-bullying week and we completed a series of lesson focusing on different types of bullying, the impact of bullying and how to speak out.
During the week some children also prepared a scene from “Sophie Rules” to present to P3 and P4 about bullying.
The Equalities group also led a workshop where all of P5 worked together to talk about the physical, mental and emotional impacts of bullying.
Taekwondo
We had a taster session of Taewando. It was awesome. Everyone was loving the opportunity to safely punch and kick the pads.
Check our leaflets which pupils brought home for more information.
The Journey of a river
Over the last fews weeks we’ve been learning about the journey of a river and applying this knowledge to our topic ‘ The Craigie to the Clyde’.
We’ve explored the upper, middle and lower parts of the river and the different features of each part. We’ve followed the journey of Aurs Burn, to Brockburn all the way to the River Clyde.
We have recognised how features of rivers such as waterfalls, gorges and meanders are formed.
Finally we recreated our own river journeys using makedo kits and cardboard. We applied our craft and mathematical knowledge to make freestanding 3d objects and just slopes and lines to control the flow of the water. We worked in teams to plan, cut and create some fabulous designs.
