Marvelous Mapping

We looked closely at a world map to discover which countries the fruit and vegetables which we eat are grown. We worked co-operatively in trios to help each other locate the country and then devise a key to show the origin of the foods. It was very interesting to locate the places that the fruit and vegetables which we worked with during our Farm to Fork visit were grown.

Farm to Fork

Primary 5 visited their local Tesco store in Airdrie to participate in their Farm to Fork initiative. The children really enjoyed the experience and got the opportunity to visit the bakery as well as try out some tasty cheeses at the cheese counter. They toured the store and got to go behind the scenes to see the chillers, freezers and loading bays. It was a very informative and fun filled outing. As you can see by our pictures,  they all had a great morning!

Ready Steady Gallop!

Primary 5 have had lots of fun taking part in an art competition to design a clydesdale horse. The winners will receive a sculpture of their design as well as having their art work on show in and around Hamilton. At the end of the summer, all of the horse sculptures will be auctioned to raise money for Kilbride Hospice. Good luck everyone!
