Excitement in Primary 2 today as the children discovered one of our stick insects has hatched and was moving around the net. Just a little bit over a centimetre, it was welcomed into the class with squeals of delight. 
Still a few more to hatch so eager eyes are watching.
Also the first of our cucamelon seedlings have popped through the soil.
Nature is an amazing teacher!
The Rights Respecting School Award spotlight this month was focused on Dignity, how we show dignity to others, and the rights which give us dignity. In P3a the children learned how to treat people with dignity through the wonderful story ‘The Invisible’ by Tom Percival. Afterward the children created acrostic poems to explore the theme Dignity.
We had a fantastic first day at Pinkston Basin taking part in a pilot for Glasgows Urban Adventure Award, engaging in outdoor learning adventures and activities. We had so much fun learning to Kayak as well as building our confidence in the water. We also spent time in the forest for our NOLA (national outdoor learning award) taking part in various different activities 
and working together. We can’t wait for our next session on 6th June!
We had a great time exploring and adventuring at Blair Drummond! We got to see lots of different animals and were able to use our knowledge from our topic The Rainforest to identify some of the animals and share some facts about them. We saw giraffes, lions, monkeys, rhinos and many more. We especially liked the sea lion show! 🦭
We were lucky to have visited on such a warm sunny day and make some fabulous memories with our friends ☀️🦎🦖
P6b had a fantastic time visiting our local library. We had the opportunity to explore new books and we even got to take one back to school! We got to learn about our current topic The Rainforest 🐸!
It has been a great week in P5 with lots going on. We have been taking good care of our tomato plant that Miss Davidson gave us as part of the Tomato Plant Challenge and it has now more than doubled in size. We have named our plant Tilly and this week we decided to repot it to give it more room to grow.
On Monday we finished our block of music and filmed our rap song videos. There was lots of enthusiasm and some great videos.
On Wednesday we again were in the creative enquiry room focussing on our DYW jobs and some more tasks were finished.
In maths our focus this week was on measuring volume and converting units of volume.
It was good to have our athletics lesson all about learning jumping techniques outside on Tuesday. We were able to be creative about the space we could use.
Everyone in P5 had a great day on Thursday at Blair Drummond Safari Park. The weather has been particularly kind to us this week. On Friday P5a continued to learn about growing plants and learning outdoors. We have now planted our sunflower seeds that Miss Davidson was able to source for us. Hopefully we will be able to study their growth in different conditions and see most of them develop into sunflowers 🌻 by August. I am looking forward to watch our seedlings grow.

What a fantastic day we had on our trip to Blairdrummond!
P3a had a wonderful time seeing all the different animals during our school trip. The children represented our school so well, and as always I am incredibly proud of them all.
Primary 5 had a great time on our school trip to Blair Drummond Safari Park today. We all enjoyed watching the lions play and the very cute little baby monkey we saw as we drove through the enclosures. We then watched the sealion show which was another highlight before walking round the park to visit some more of the animals. Next we watched the Birds of Prey display where we learned some very interesting facts on owls. It was then lunch, the park and some more animals before heading back for the bus. Lots of walking but lots of fun was had by all.
