We had a lovely morning with the P4/5 class. They read us stories they had written about their castle topic. Then they did our reading with us and then read us a story as well!
Lee from the SSPCA came to visit us and told us all about how litter is damaging to animals. She showed us pictures and videos of animals harmed by litter but also how they were rescued and helped by the SSPCA. As a class we then made posters to encourage other children not to drop litter.
Today we started with a whole school walk around the Castle Drive. Even though there were snow flurries, off we went! On route Jim Dawson, a local farmer, kindly let us see his newborn lambs in his farm.
After lunch we had a super time learning about SARDA. Mr Gaskell told us all about mountain rescue and the work of his dogs. We even had a demonstration, where the rescue dog had to find Mrs Gaskell.
