We all had a great time at our sports day today and the lovely weather was the icing on the cake!
P4 Sports Day
Category Archives: Outdoor Learning
P5 Garden Open Event
Garden open event for Primary 5 parents and guardians. Thursday 18th June 2015 9.30-10.30. We hope you can come along and help us with our learning in the garden. We look forward to seeing you all.
P3 Outdoor Measure
P3 have been learning about length in Term 3 and enjoyed using their hands, feet, measuring tapes and trundle wheels outside in the playground.
Primary 1a and 1b grow it, cook it, eat it!
Primary 1a and 1b have been growing some watercress in class and last week we took our watercress into the Learning Kitchen. We had great fun preparing a delicious watercress and apple salad and learned some safe food chopping techniques while doing so! Well done for working so hard and keeping safe and clean in the kitchen. 🙂
Thank you Ms Duncan, Mrs McCluskey and Mrs Kelly for helping us with our learning.
Miss Scott will take the remaining primary 1 children into the Learning Kitchen next week.
Nursery Trip to Wellsfield Farm Park
After a very wet start to the day the nursery enjoyed a fantastic trip to Wellsfield Farm Park. The children enjoyed exploring the park and a great time was had by all!

Sports Day Update – Postponed to 3 June
Met Office weather forecast for 2 June is a yellow warning for wind so we are not taking any chances and therefore sports day will not go ahead tomorrow.
Met Office weather forecast for 3 June is bright with sunnier periods as showers die out so we hope to go ahead on Wednesday (Fall back day 1).

I haven’t planned a fall back 3 date yet. Let’s hope we don’t need it!
P6/7 and P7 School Excursions to Dumfries House
P7 visit Dumfries House on 1 June and P6/7 the following week on 8 June.
Parents, could you ensure that all pupils meet in the school hall at 8.45am on the morning of their excursion please? This helps us to get the pupils on the road and to the venue as quickly as possible.
Pupils will be participating in outdoor learning including gardening, cooking and play so could you also ensure that pupils please wear appropriate outdoor clothing on this day?
Thanks in advance!
P2/3 Visit to Dumfries House
P2/3 had a fabulous time when they visited Dumfries House in March. They were exploring what plants needed to grow and how to recycle some food waste by making a compost bottle. The grounds of Dumfries House are quite spectacular and would be a great place to explore the outdoors with your family. There is a great adventure play park too. Here are some photographs to show you what fun we had.
