This week’s focus was “Outdoor Learning.”  What better way to appreciate wonderful colours of autumn than a walk to Pollok Park.  We are very lucky to have such a beautiful natural resource right here in Pollokshields. On Tuesday morning we made our way to Pollok Park with a focus on creating a Story Stick, but also taking part in various challenges.

Here’s a film about our adventure.

On Thursday, we invited families to come into school and take part in one of our many outdoor activities.  Thanks to everyone who attended the event, hope you enjoyed our Nature Hunt.  It was a joy to see the families take time to read with their children, and to other pupils who simply wanted o listen to someone different tell a story.  Taking a short time to read with your child has a hugely positive impact on learning (plus reading outdoors is more fun!!)
