We have been learning about FRACTIONS.
We know that fractions are all about EQUAL parts.
We can draw shapes and split them in to equal parts.
We can also find fractions of numbers by splitting objects in to equal groups.

Today we went on a trip to Rozelle for some fabulous outdoor learning all thanks to Stagecoach, who helped us to get there FOR FREE on our very own private Stagecoach double decker bus! 3 parents took the opportunity to join our learning today.
The weather was beautiful and we loved having so much space to run around and explore. We even went on a hunt to find the Gruffalo and climbed on top of his big tree stump hideout.
P67 have been learning all about different artists and the techniques that they use. We were delighted that local artist Tom Craig could join us to tell us all about his exhibition at the Maclaurin Art Gallery. We even recognised some of the places from his paintings!
He had a lot of interesting stories to tell us about his travels to Papua New Guinea.
We were all feeling really inspired and held our own drawing competition which was judged by Tom himself. Well done to Elsi, Campbell and Eve that won.
We had a Scavenger Hunt to find objects that start with the different letters of Tom Craig’s name. It was a lot harder than we thought! Look at all of the beautiful Crocus flowers that we spotted.

We used our kitchen hygiene and safety skills and knowledge to make spooky gingerbread. P6/7 also applied many of their literacy and maths skills to read the recipe and measure the ingredients. We remembered what Jacqui had taught us about kitchen safety and hygiene.
Miss Ross had a terrible accident……. She burnt and cut herself! We had to respond to this emergency. We administered first aid but also called an ambulance as we felt the cut was too serious to treat at school. We were glad that the paramedic had given us information on what to do.
Owl Magic brought some spooky animals to school. We learned about how the animals are cared for and how they are all safely transported from place to place. We remembered some of the information given to us at our road safety assembly.
We made a fire to keep us warm outside. We had to be careful when moving around near the fire. We toasted marshmallows and told spooky stories. We remembered what Liam the Fireman had told us about fire safety.
We carved pumpkins and had fun squishing the insides. We had to be very careful when we were using the cutters to carve the pumpkins. Thankfully we had no emergencies like Miss Ross!! We’ll now leave the pumpkins outside for the animals to eat and we’ll watch how they decompose.
I enjoyed mixing the ingredients together.
I liked cutting the a bat shaped gingerbread biscuit.
We used maths while we were baking.
We washed our hands and made sure all our equipment was hygienic.
I enjoyed baking gingerbread biscuits.
Miss Ross cut her arm so we had to call the ambulance by dialling 999.
We had to put pressure on the cut using a rag or a bandage…not cotton wool.
We advised her run the burn under cold water for 15 mins.
I enjoyed holding the barn owl.
I was quite disgusted when the owl pooped on my arm.
She talked to us about being safe around the owls.
The owls need to be safe and secure when they are being taken places in the car.
My favourite part of the day was Owl Magic.
We had to stay safe and keep a good distance from the fire.
You have to be careful not to burn yourself on the fire when toasting your marshmallow!
It was quite hard to light the fire using matches… The wind kept blowing them out!
We told spooky stories.
I liked telling spooky stories.
We had some really good ideas for our pumpkin designs.
It was quite hard to scoop out the pumpkin guts!
We worked well together in pairs to carve our pumpkins.
I LOVED EVERYTHING!
This was the best Halloween ever!
We got started on our second graffiti project today. All children will have an opportunity to contribute to our welcome wall. They are writing our values and using rights respecting words to build up a colourful wall to welcome visitors . We’ll upload a picture of the finished wall very soon!
Another fantastic day for Fisherton sports day.
We…… pitched, sawed, sparked, cooked, ate, drank, gathered, walked, feared, chatted, slept, washed, canoed, escaped, shared and cleared…..ALL OUTDOORS!
Our experience was loads of fun but also had a serious side. Throughout the event we reflected on the life of refugees in a different type of camp! We had 2 activities that were very refugee focused. They were called FEAR and ESCAPE. If you want to know more then please ask us!
