On Thursday we went to the Hockey Festival. We won two matches, we lost two matches and a draw. Pupils from p4 to 7 were playing in Brae on the 24th of May. We had great fun!

Yesterday we went to Cunningsburgh to learn about trows, peat and bogs.
We learned about global warming. When the peat dries out the carbon dioxide doesn’t have anywhere to go and contributes to global warming. We got to meet two different trows who told us their stories.
Some words we would use to describe our day are:
Thank you to all the organisers!
On Wednesday we got to see Imaginate’s performance of Baba Yaga. It was good fun!

As were sure you know the royal wedding is happening on Saturday 19th. Unfortunately we could not attend so we decided to have our own royal tea party. We invited parents and dressed up fancy! More photos to follow.

Yesterday we had a visit from Natalie and Karen from the RSPB. we did some bird calling games where we heard the bird calls and ran to a corner and if we got it right we got a chocolate bird egg . The poor chocolate birds had their eggs stolen.
After our game we tried some worm charming copying a curlew. By patting the floor the worms would think its raining and come up. We only found half a worm and 2 beetles. We tried again in the field and with more luck we found lots more worms.

Yesterday we had a visit from Natalie and Karen from RSPB and we went rock pooling. We found crabs, starfish, and lots of interesting things.

It was RSPB day so we decided to go down to Bousta Beach. We made food webs to learn about the rockpool ecosystem and learned about the tide with a clay cookie, an orange and a pickled onion.

Megan, Alisers, Eldars and Simone had great fun representing the school at the Westside Sports Day where they got to try lots of different events!
As part of our learning on plants, animals and ecosystems, yesterday we were learning about the five kingdoms! We found out that these are:
Here are some things we found out:
Alisers – Fungi is the biggest in our ecosystem!
Liam – the prokaryote kingdom includes bacteria
Megan – Animals are one of the most complicated organisms
Sophie – Humans are included in the animal kingdom
Alice – Trees and plants make oxygen and feed themselves through photosynthesis
Vanja – The animal kingdom is full of different animal species
Eldars – Some animals help grass to grow by fertilising it
Finn – All the kingdoms make up an ecosystem
Simone – We went outside and around the school looking for organisims from the five kingdoms. We found plants, animals and fungi.
Can you guess which kingdom these are from??
A few weeks ago, Miss McIntyre woke up to find lots of frogs in her pond. They had laid lots of spawn which we have been enjoying having in class. We’ve been able to watch as the frogspawn has hatched into tadpoles and are looking forward to seeing them change into froglets!
