Room 7 got given a number of 200 trouts to care for. We received them on the 18th January. A man called Willie came in every Tuesday until our release which was on the 11th march. Friday was a very exciting day we all had 1-4 trouts in each tub and we walked down to our local burn which was just down the lane. It was a lovely river and it will be a great home for the trout.
We had a great time and thank you so much Willie for all that you have done we had a wonderful time.
We took part in a Glow Meet with artist Craig Coulthard who is looking for children to design a football strip for his Forest Pitch competition. You can click HERE to find out more about the project.

Here are some of our entries-
Our class is in charge of taking forward Health and Wellbeing for Eco Schools. Today Joshua and I went around the classes and asking them what would make eating fruit more exciting and encourage more children to buy fruit from the tuck shop. Josh and I thought Smoothies and Fruit Kebabs would make it more exciting. There were quite alot of great ideas and most people voted for smoothies.

Today we went out with Miss Slimmon and Mrs Todd with speed guns that we borrowed and checked every vehicle’s speed for road saftey. It was awesome and it was funny when they honked. When they saw us, they all slowed down! The point of this is so we know if drivers understand the signs and check if they are following the speed limit.
The speed limit outside our school is 40 miles per hour, but when the lights flash, drivers have to go at 20 mph. We found that most drivers were doing the correct speed limit when we tested, but we thought that we would get a different result if they couldn’t see us in our high visibility jackets!

Here are the Broad Beans we grew in our Eco Garden. When they are cooked they were very tasty. They took about five minutes to cook and they tasted disgusting to some people.We really enjoyed cutting them open we also made a mask out of the pod.
With kind hearts and willing hands, we can all achieve our dreams
