Primary 6/7 enjoyed a day at the market where they learned about food production. They enjoyed experiencing the view from a tractor and trying the different produce. Some of the children took on the role of auctioneer while the rest placed their bids on the animals. A great day was had by all. Thank you to the parent helpers and RHET for supporting our trip.

Another Active Afternoon for Room 2
Room 2 enjoyed an afternoon of outdoor gym. The children ran their daily mile in the sun then practised their gymnastics skills of balancing, sliding, rolling and jumping on the outdoor obstacle course.
Nature Walk
Miss Coyle took us on a nature walk last week. We saw lots of trees and some moss and we heard the birds tweeting. We wrote letters to Mrs Crockett to tell her what we saw and heard on our walk. Well done to Tyler, Ainsley, Ellie and Eva who were our star writers.
Outdoor Clocks
We had fun drawing clocks in the playground today.
We had to put the numbers and the hands in the correct place on our analogue clocks then write the time in digital.
It was a little tricky!
Primary 7 Kilbowie
Primary 7 left for a 5 day trip to a residential outdoor learning centre on 7 Sept. They developed their problem-solving skills and learned to negotiate during team work through a range of activities such as gorge walking, kayaking, canoeing, abseiling, mountain biking and much more. They were given a good send off by family and friends.
