We were asking about what kind of food people eat in the Caribbean and so we decided to make a sweet bread that comes from Barbados. We followed the recipe and measured the ingredients carefully. It smelt good as we were baking it. We let other people taste it when it was ready and lots of them said it was delicious!

This also helped us with our writing as we are learning how to write instructions at the moment.

We have been learning about some of the interesting wildlife that live in the Caribbean & have discovered how big butterflies can be and how small snakes can be as well as plenty more! We used different art techniques to draw and paint some of them.

Thanks to Mrs Carson for helping us make some delicious tattie scones. We enjoyed making them and tasting them later on!

Mr Murray took us to the school allotment. There were lots of vegetables that were ready to be picked so we were kept very busy…

The next day some us cleaned the vegetables so they could be used for cooking.

Our topic this term is the Caribbean. We know the names of some of the islands in the Caribbean but have discovered that there are many more. Which ones can you think of?

Primary 7/6 are delighted that they have the only room in the school and have quickly settled down to work. They are committed to having a respectful, honest, engaged and enjoyable class.
