P1 and P2/3 recently had a visit from the Fire Service and learned about the dangers of making hoax calls to the fire service.
Lynne followed up this visit and allowed the children to make supervised 999 calls.
Alexander and Rebecca did a wonderful job making a 999 call. Rebecca was especially clear when making her call!
Today we learned about St. Andrew for Scotland’s special day.
We went over to the hall and danced some Scottish dances. After that we had a Scottish food taster session. We learnt about the health benefits of some and how some foods should be only eaten in moderation. Today we tasted a variety of porridge, oatcakes and Scottish cheddar, shortbread and tablet. Haggis was going to be served, but it was already an option for lunch.
It was good to see a lot of the children tucking into porridge.
What a brilliant time we had when the fire brigade visited us.
They showed us all their water equipment, cutting tools and we all got the chance to use the water hose. We had to aim at a cone on top of the bin. I think there are some budding firefighters amongst us!
Today we made our very own healthy sandwiches. We had a choice of fillings including, chicken, ham, cheese, pate, lettuce, cucumber and tomatoes. We discovered we need a little more practice spreading and chopping.
