Numeracy Week – Orienteering

The class loved during orienteering last term when we were doing our health week. Mrs Ritchie made up some more orienteering tasks for us to use based on numeracy. We did two today, one which included numbers and colours and one that used directions, colours and adding. The sun was shining and the class had a great time!

Meta skills included are focusing, initiative, communicating, collaborating, leading and critical thinking.

Outdoor Learning

Signs of Spring

We went for a walk today to look for signs of Spring. We saw daffodils, crocuses, snowdrops and lots of new buds on the trees and bushes. We enjoyed a walk around our local area including going over the troll bridge and a peerie explore in the wildlife area.

Up Helly Aa 2024

What a day!

The class have had a great time preparing for Up Helly Aa. We made shields and helmets. We have set up our own Sound School Galley Shed in the infant wing which includes dressing up, axe designs, helmet making, galley building, torch making, art activities and a workbench with real tools.

We enjoyed the day which included a walk to the Clickimin to see the Junior galley and presentations in the gym hall to both the junior squad and senior squad. We got a very quick chance to hold their shields and try their helmets before the vikings had to leave again.

Thank you to all the parent helpers who came on our trip. It was great to have you.  Thank you to the squads who came to visit. It was a very special and exciting day for everyone.

Outdoor Learning – Road Safety

Tony came in to our class today to chat to us about road safety and show us his hi-vis uniform. We learned about his jacket, his lollipop and most importantly, how his gloves protect his hands from all the high-fives!

We watched a video on crossing the road safely.

Crossing roads: kids know best – THINK!

The class enjoyed getting outdoors to have a go at crossing the roads using what we had learned.

Stop!

Look! 

Listen!

Think!

Our school value this term is safety. We have also looked at being safe around bonfires and fireworks.
