Here are the photographs of our award winners from the Pr. 1 – 4 assembly on Wenesday. We are also featuring our children who have achieved notable success outside of school. Well done boys and girls!!
SUPER SOUP!!
Primary One/Two were very excited coming to school this morning as they were cooking in the kitchen. The vegetables that they harvested yesterday were ready to go into delicious homemade soup. The children had to give the vegetables a good wash first though!
The children learned how to use the grater when preparing the carrots for the soup.
They added potatoes, carrots and onion and some magic stock. The smell was as good as the taste!
Miss Ross reports that the children had a lovely afternoon doing purposeful play; learning role play through Percy and his friends, Making Percy cards at the writing table and using play doh to make exciting things for Percy and his friends.
Later everyone sat down together and had some lovely soup with nice, crusty bread. The boys and girls even sent some soup along to the office for Mrs.Docherty!!! Super soup indeed!!
Primary 1 and 2 in the Garden
Primary one and two have been very busy this week looking after Percy’s Garden and digging up all his vegetables.

Room 1, 2, 3,and 4 go on a Bug Hunt
David, from Bug Life took the classes an adventure last week to find lots of bugs in our local area and raise the awareness of meadows for our invertebrates and other wildlife.
The children found snails, butterflies, beetles, worms, bees, spiders, earwigs, ants and caterpillars. They even saw bunny rabbits too! The children had a look at the bugs in the bug catchers then put them gently back in their home.
The children told David about our work on Mini Beasts and showed him our very own Bug Hotel in our school garden, he was very impressed!
Everyone had fabulous fun in the sun!
