P2/3 had great time learning the skills to use the climbing wall.
You can move like a crab or like an Egyptian.
Everybody gave it a go, but Eleanor you were super!

Throwing
In PE we practised throwing and catching balls.
We then practised throwing the javelin and throwing balls at different targets.
Top javelin thrower has to be FRED. You heard it hear first folks!
Health Week Day 3
Today was busy, busy!
We made comments for our Friendship Tree – saying kind words about somebody we wouldn’t generally say something nice to.
Next we went over to the hall and Miss Dingwall showed us how to play Indoor Curling. We had a great time and some of us would have played longer.
This was then followed by orienteering in the playground with Mrs Lynne. The children in pairs managed this very well and after initially finding it a little tricky, they had it mastered. Mrs Lynne kindly provided Hot Chocolate to keep us warm, as the snow was beginning to fall a little harder.
In the afternoon, after music practice, we played Whole School Dodgeball. Well done to Ardoch who won, but a big well done has to go to Alexander Bickerton who was standing alone in his team,
which seemed an eternity, avoiding all the balls.
Health Week Day 2
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, Â 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.
Skipping
This week we practised our skipping and learned new rhymes to help us learn simple addition sums and the months of the year.
Well done to Miles and Cameron who really persevered and improved greatly on their skipping!
Skipping
We were skipping today and were learning to run in and certain songs. We sang Jelly on the Plate, Sweeties in the Jar and Sausages in the Pan.
We also learned I am a Girl Guide/ Beaver Scout Dressed in Green. More old songs will be taught over in the next couple of weeks.
Well done to Noah, Carly and Sandy who skipped well in my group today. Well done to the children who also gave a go at running in!
Hoop Circuits
Carly was absolutely fantastic spinning a hula hoop around her waist!
She was the only one in our class, who could do it properly. The rest of us need to practice a lot more!
PE
We started Fitness today in PE. We went around different stations to do different activities to raise our heart rate. We certainly did that! Everyone put in great effort today. Well done to Rebecca and Katie who listened especially well and carried out the activities very well.
Scottish Dancing
In PE we have been learning some Scottish dances. Today we practised again the Military Two Step and then moved onto the Canadian Barn dance. Thank you to Finlay who was my fabulous partner. Also today Miles, Erin, Katie, James, Holly, Kiara and Fred danced very well.
