This term we are taking part in the RSPB Big Schools’ Birdwatch. We will be surveying the types of birds we see in our school grounds and recording the greatest number of each one that we see within a 1 hour period. In preparation for this, we have been busy making bird feeders this afternoon. Many enjoyed the feeling of the seeds in their hands. Perhaps the feeling of lard in their hands was not so pleasant!
We hope that the birds in our local area come to visit us and enjoy our feeders. We will have the binoculars at the ready!
If you are interested in taking part at home too, there is still time to sign up for the Big Garden Bird Watch. Click on the link below to find out more.
It has been so lovely to see everyone back. What a great start to the year.
We are starting to get ready for the RSPB birdwatch, so this afternoon while the pupil council were out, the rest of us made bird feeders.
We used up the old pine cones from Christmas and learnt to tie a reef knot, so that we’ll be able to hang them from the trees. Next we made a delicious 🤢 mixture of lard, cheese, grains, nuts and sultanas and moulded it onto the cones. We will harden them up in the fridge and hang them out next week.

We had our fourth Wider Achievement afternoon today and we put out our bird feeders, ready for next week’s RSPB birdwatch. They’ll certainly have plenty to eat!
We had a lovely afternoon making two more types of bird feeders. Next week we will go and tie all the feeders to our feeding stations and the trees. P4/5/6/7 have worked really well, the 🐦 are certainly appreciating it!
So here they are, the wonderful, fun loving new P6/7s Just another blogs.glowscotland.org.uk – Shetland site
