We had a fantastic time becoming bakers and shopkeepers. First, we carefully measured ingredients using cups to make our own delicious cookies, learning about quantity and measurement as we mixed, shared, rolled and baked. The next day, when the cookies had cooled we had a busy shop in the classroom where the children took turns being customers and shopkeepers. They practised counting money, working out and giving the correct change, developing their maths skills through real-life experiences before enjoying their cookies for snack. It was great fun – full of learning, teamwork and tasty treats!

Rock Pooling
Our Primary 1/ 2 pupils enjoyed an outdoor learning adventure at the Sands of Sound beach. Equipped with curiosity and keen observation skills, they explored the rock pools to discover the fascinating creatures and plants living in them.
As they carefully searched through seaweed and shallow pools, the pupils spotted a variety of marine life and learned about how these animals survive in their coastal habitat. The visit provided a wonderful opportunity to develop scientific enquiry skills and build confidence in the natural environment.

Planting in spring
We have been busy learning about what plants need to grow and have planted our own peas. We are hoping our carrot tops will sprout leaves and in turn give us some carrot seeds. We also helped the Amenity Trust to plant tree in the school field. It was great fun!

Sands of Sound
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.
