Recently, we had a visit from Eleanor from the UHI Science team.

Learners rotated around different stations, having the opportunity to try creating batteries from lemons, a games console controller out of playdough and wires,  trying different fruit and veg to see if they conducted electricity and a turn on a VR headset.

These activities allowed opportunities for critical thinking and show cased learners’ knowledge and understanding of circuits and their components.

Recently, P6 took part in the Sports Leaders Event at Seafield.  There were lots of opportunities for effective communication and  collaboration and many examples of good sportsmanship while we developed football skills and played different ball games. And it didn’t rain!

The P6 & P7 STEM club created this amazing Marble Run recently:

During our time outdoors recently, P6 used our meta skills of creativity and curiousity when we created art from natural objects found in the Wildlife Area.

P6 enjoyed looking for signs of spring in the Wildlife Area recently. It also allowed the opportunity to develop our communication and collaborative skills as we worked in pairs.

P6 had an insight into Victorian life today when Izzy Swanson joined us to reenact a day in the life of a Victorian school child. We learned about what they would have worn, how they would have lined up and what lessons they would have been taught.

P6 have been learning about perimeter and the kind of jobs that would use measuring.

We undertook a challenge to see what equipment would be best to measure certain perimeters in the playground area.
