Zoolab

P1/2 were joined by Nursery today to be entertained by Zoolab.

Alex showed the children many animals from the Rainforest.  Some of the creatures that the children had the fortune to see and hold were the Madagascar Hissing Cockroach,  a Giant Millipede, the Giant African Snail, a Chilean Tarantula,  a Tree frog, a Crested Gecko, a Corn Snake and Rats!

Our Pirate topic

Here are some photographs showing some of the activities and learning we have done in relation to our Pirate topic.

This has included making our Pirate ship, reading pirate stories, Drama – Life on a Pirate Ship and Island and Soft Play activities including role play in the ship.

Transport Museum Visit

P1/2 are just back from their fabulous time at the Transport Museum in Glasgow.

We started off with a tour with the Tram Man who guided us around the different trams showing us how they worked and how people had to board them and sit on them too. He also showed us their safety features with the help of Rhys who ended up being below one of them!

We then had a walk around the many exhibits before lunch.

After lunch we continued our tour, which included going on board the steam locomotives, in and out of the old style shops and aboard the Glen lee ship, where some of  the children were put to work scrubbing the decks!

After our visit to the shop we had to go back home. A big thank you to Hazel and Mr Davidson who were our parent/grandparent helpers!
