We have been learning some really good things about our body recently and we now know lots about our skeleton and muscles. We have also been focusing on how puberty affects and changes our bodies.
I have attached a link to a website which is really useful for the children to explore themselves and also for parents to use alongside your child.
I hope you find this of some use to you.

We had another very successful lesson for cooking week and we made Vegetable Spring Rols. We practiced our grating skills and bridge and claw cuts. We also learned to stir-fry vegetables and roll filo pastry. We were all really impressed with how they turned out and some of us even enjoyed the taste!!
Here is a copy of the recipe to try at home.
Look at what fabulous chefs we make.
Primary 6 have been very enthusiastic whilst learning athletics. We have worked on our running, jumping and throwing skills and in amongst that we managed some outdoor learning with our measure work! We were blessed with some really lovely Autumn days and managed to have outdoor PE lessons for a number of weeks. Due to injury at times we had pupils unable to take part and they became our photo finish officials and resident reporters. Look at some of their fabulous photos.
We have loved all of our Focus on Food work and really enjoyed baking Garlic and Herb Bread which was a perfect link to our France topic. We loved working the dough and rolling it, we spread on our herb mixture and waited for it to rise. The delicious smell floated through the school!
