Primary 4-7 go outdoors every Friday. We love to explore our local area. Recently we have been learning how to build a fire and we have been playing games at the football pitch. We care for our environment and have been litter picking around the village.

P4-7 Halloween Party
Dolphin House 2022
P7/6 along with a few pupils from P5 had an amazing week at Dolphin House! Over the week, they were working towards their John Muir Award and using his 4 key objectives :- Discover, Conserve, Explore and Share.
Our first day at Dolphin house involved some archery, we had lots of fun and settled in well.
We had a productive second day hill walking. We got to experience some breathtaking views throughout our walk and appreciate what a beautiful country we live in. Some very tired children (and adults) this day!

P7/6 Term 1
Welcome to Primary 7/6!
Our teacher this year is Miss Baillie and we have 17 pupils in our class.
This term our topic is World War 2. We have been reading Goodnight Mister Tom as our class novel.
In numeracy and maths, we have been focussing on bar modelling, angles and time.
This term we also had the opportunity of going on a residential trip to Dolphin House. We have been working towards the John Muir Award with the key elements of ‘discover’, ‘explore’, ‘conserve’ and ‘share’. Whilst at Dolphin House, we got to experience activities such as archery, orienteering, rock pooling, movies, hill-walking, geology, quiz, paddle boarding, canoeing, night walk, disco and a trout run!
Keep an eye out for all the fun we are going to get up to in Term 2!
Here are some Photos of what we’ve been up to in Term 1.

P5,6 and 7 Outdoor Learning
Primary 5, 6 and 7 were learning to work as part of a team during outdoor learning with Caitlin from Active Schools. They took part in a scavenger hunt in the woods and finished off their afternoon with a game of rounders.
Outdoor learning updating the playground P4-7
On Thursday 28th April we began our outdoor project to up date and improve our playground area. Mr Woods and a team of pupils began work on a sensory path, linking the top and bottom playgrounds. Mrs Cunningham and her team were weeding and tidying the raised beds and path area. The remainder of the pupils did an excellent job of repainting the fences, along with a few hands!
P 4-7 outdoor learning setting up our den
On our first trip outdoors after the Easter holidays we made some additions to our outdoor den up by the castle. We added some additional logs for seating and creating a wind break with some large branches. Everyone worked hard to make the area look more inviting and had great fun at the same time.
