Despite a very windy day we went to Sands of Sound beach. We went to explore and see what was on the beach and what things we could find to play with. The tide was quite far out which gave us plenty of space to try writing and drawing in both wet and dry sand. Making sand angels was also great fun.

Earlier in term one we went to the wildlife area and listen to the story of The Disgusting Sandwich by Gareth Edwards. We then looked around for all different types of leaves, foliage and other things which we could use to make our own disgusting sandwiches.  It was great fun.

This year, all classes will be working on the same activity in PE, with each class developing skills at their own level. We started the year with a Football block, focusing on building confidence and ability in key skills.

In Primary 1/2, our focus was on developing the fundamental skills needed for football. This included running, stopping, starting, changing direction, using space safely, spatial awareness, listening, following instructions, responding to cues, and handling equipment with control. We also introduced dribbling and passing with the ball, alongside other activities using different equipment to build coordination and confidence.

We look forward to continuing developing our skills and understanding as we move into our next activity block.

Here we are using the hoops.

Here we are doing a follow the leader exercise.

Finally, a touch of football.
