Primary 3 have had a very busy first term. We have been enjoying the new challenges and learning experiences at this new stage.

Our interdisciplinary topic this term is ‘Katie Morag Delivers the Mail’. Using the story as a stimulus we have been learning about the key residential, agricultural and recreational differences between a town and remote island. The children have worked hard to create a large map of the Island of Struay including the key features on the island.

During play-based learning experiences, the children have had lots of fun re-enacting life on a remote island in our class Post Office and Shop. We have used a variety of malleable materials to create 3D models of the Island of Struay. In the construction area, we have been using our problem solving skills to design and build a variety of houses and buildings.

We hope you enjoy looking at our photographs below.
