Teddy Bears Travels – Day 1
We are raising money for St. Andrews Hospice by taking part in Teddy Bears Travels. Each day this week our Teddy Bears will come to school and go on an adventure with us. Keep an eye on the blog for what we do each day!
The Importance of Hand Washing!
The boys and girls in primary four have been discussing, and demonstrating, the importance of hand washing so we don’t spread germs and get sick.
To show how germs can spread, the children all touched a piece of bread without washing their hands. We then displayed this piece of bread against a clean piece.
Look at our results after one week of carrying out the experiment. We make sure we’re super hand washers now ;).
P1 & P6 Learning Tasks
Our Primary 1 and Primary 6 children were working together, using the outdoor environment. Primary 1 were showcasing their knowledge of compound words. Primary 6 were demostrating their management and collaborative working skills. Both worked incredibly hard and it was a very successful lesson. Well done to all.

Big Cats in P4
Primary Four are learning about Big Cats in their new interdisciplinary context, and thoroughly enjoying it.
Today, the boys and girls drew tigers freehand and then used their collage skills to create the tiger’s natural habitat around the edge. Don’t they look fabulous?
Fact(s) of the day: Did you know the Tiger lives in South – Asia?
Did you know the tiger is the heaviest, strongest and most powerful of the Big Cats?
Primary 1 and 2…Walking and Exploring
Primary 1 and 2 have been out everyday as part of our Active School initiative…Walk to Rio! We also now have Beat the Street to take part in as well. If you see us out and about the village give us a wave. We are enjoying exploring our local environment.
Gardening Club
Today was our first day at Gardening Club! The boys and girls spoke about what they would like to learn over the next few weeks. We then went outside and took some weeds out of our outdoor area outside the playroom. We found some worms and we were so excited! We can’t wait until next week 🙂
