Primary 7a have had a wonderful day today practising their biking skills.
Please remember, like the instructors said, keep practising at home. For your next session on the road, you need to be able to confidently cycle for 3 seconds with one hand off the handlebars, to signal right or left.
Well done boys & girls, you did really well today. I am very proud of you.

Primary 7 have been building on their knowledge of energy sources by observing the effect of the sun’s heat on three different variables.
We recorded the temperature of water in three cups before they were exposed to sunlight. Then we placed one cup on white paper, one cup on black paper and covered one cup with cling film.
We left the cups in direct sunlight for 30 minutes and predicted what effect we thought the sun’s energy would have on each cup of water.
“I thought the water on the black paper would be the hottest because the black attracts the sun.”
“I thought it would be the cling film because it was trapping the heat inside the cup.”
“Just before we recorded the temperature for the second time, I could see condensation forming underneath the cling film lid.”
Well done P7; a fantastic experiment using our STEM skills outdoors today.
P7a & d had a fantastic afternoon enhancing their numeracy and literacy skills using the outdoor environment.
Well done everyone! What a fantastic afternoon 🙂
Miss Gavin & Mr McKay
