It was lovely to see the children having fun, as well as helping and encouraging one another as they moved around the stations. It was also wonderful to see so many family members and friends coming along to cheer on the teams. This year\u2019s winning team was Ben Chonzie, but a huge well done to everyone who took part.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1007\" data-end=\"1379\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">As part of our Eco Action Plan, we have been focusing on biodiversity and the importance of plants for insects and our environment. We learned about the life cycle of a sunflower before doing some planting of our own to take home. Next week, we will also plant some seeds for the school grounds, which we hope will continue to grow and brighten our outdoor spaces.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-174\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/gc\/public\/primary3awallacewellprimary\/uploads\/sites\/11972\/2026\/05\/09114245\/IMG_0213-300x225.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/gc\/public\/primary3awallacewellprimary\/uploads\/sites\/11972\/2026\/05\/09114245\/IMG_0213-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/gc\/public\/primary3awallacewellprimary\/uploads\/sites\/11972\/2026\/05\/09114245\/IMG_0213-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/gc\/public\/primary3awallacewellprimary\/uploads\/sites\/11972\/2026\/05\/09114245\/IMG_0213-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/gc\/public\/primary3awallacewellprimary\/uploads\/sites\/11972\/2026\/05\/09114245\/IMG_0213.jpeg 1260w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-173\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/gc\/public\/primary3awallacewellprimary\/uploads\/sites\/11972\/2026\/05\/09114242\/IMG_0212-300x225.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/gc\/public\/primary3awallacewellprimary\/uploads\/sites\/11972\/2026\/05\/09114242\/IMG_0212-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/gc\/public\/primary3awallacewellprimary\/uploads\/sites\/11972\/2026\/05\/09114242\/IMG_0212-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/gc\/public\/primary3awallacewellprimary\/uploads\/sites\/11972\/2026\/05\/09114242\/IMG_0212-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/gc\/public\/primary3awallacewellprimary\/uploads\/sites\/11972\/2026\/05\/09114242\/IMG_0212.jpeg 1260w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week may have been a short one, but it was certainly full of fun and learning!
