Earth hour in school Friday 18th of March at 1pm. Lights out!
Healthy Choices in Primary 1
We sorted food into 2 groups after watching a powerpoint about Healthy and Unhealthy foods. We worked together and explained our choices to the class. We can make good choices when it comes to food now. We know what we should eat lots of and what we should keep as a treat!
Primary 1 learning all about animals through Science
Our focus for science is animals. We have been learning about animals through Glow and using TigTag. Using the smartboard to complete the games and watch the video clips gives us lots of great facts. We have learned about domestic animals, where animals live, how animals move and will be looking at what they eat and the food chain. We even tried to move like some of the animals we were learning about!
Primary 1 Using Venn Diagrams
Feeling the love in Primary 1
Growing our own food
Primary 6b have been growing watercress in the Primary 1 classroom because they decided it got the most light. They researched the best environment for growing. They watered the seeds and tracked their growth.
Primary 1 ….Data Analysis
Eco and Malawi Supporting our Local Food Banks
The Eco and Malawi committees took on a major initiative before Christmas and organised a food drive in the school to help our local food bank. Food is a main focus for both committees and we thought it would be fantastic if we could support those in our local community who need help with food and house hold essentials.
We invited our local food bank representatives ( Annette and James) in to present to us at a school assembly and talk about some of the great work they do. The Eco and Malawi committee wrote a letter to the parents asking them to donate and telling them what things were suitable for donation. Both committees teamed up to produce posters that were displayed in and around the school and village. We also created a powerpoint to show at the assembly. Our food drive lasted for 10 weeks and we collected a massive amount of donations that had to be collected over two pick ups!
This made a huge difference to those who needed it in our community.
Primary 1 and 2 Food For Celebrations
Primary 1 and 2 had a fantastic time making and decorating cakes to celebrate Christmas.
We were just like real bakers. We had a ball!
Primary 1 – Making Healthy Sandwiches
Primary 1 made healthy choices and selected lots of tasty and healthy fillings for their sandwiches. We now know brown bread is a better choice than white bread and some of us tried foods we had never tasted before and now really like it.
We tried cucumber, lettuce and tomatoes.
We prepared our own sandwiches and ate them afterwards.
