After an incredibly fast week, we are at the start of a new one!  It’s going to be a good one!  At the weekend our orchard underwent another transformation – the polytunnel frame was put up and the gate from the nursery was put in.  Many thanks to all the lovely people who came along to help!

This morning we have our SFA football coaching sessions with Danny.  It’s our second last week of them and we have been playing wee games of real football.  Most people are getting the hang of using just our feet to move the ball, though there is still quite a bit of handball going on!!

On Tuesday we are having a Dinosaur Encounter with a very large dino in the school gym.  Primary 1 are joining us and we are really looking forward to hearing a lot about these amazing beasts and finding out about what they were really like.

Many thanks for all the spring cleaning donations – we are really grateful and will put them to good use.  We are still looking for empty  hand wash bottles – the ones with the wee pump in them.  We are going to use them to make a paint mixing facility in the art area!

Words of the week this week are: Outside, Furious, Somersault and Idea!!!

Our new author of the month is Valerie Thomas, who with her illustrator Korky Paul, is the creator of the amazing Winnie the Witch!
