Outdoor Activities

Leave a comment

This term we have had some visitors to share our outdoor areas. Outdoor learning teacher Kate Hookham showed us how to make dens with our equipment. Then we had two little visitors who we even got to feed. It was so much fun! We have made kites, played in the rain, made shadow drawings on sunny days, explored with numbers, shapes and letters, hunted for minibeasts for our bug hotel and been on so many walks!

We all took part in our sports day and went to the P1-3 sports day to cheer on our friends too.

Drumming fun!

We have been taking part in group drumming sessions with Joy Duncan. Exploring music and sound through drumming. Learning new songs and how to play African drums. Joy encouraged us to have a try and always have fun whilst listening and following instructions. We loved our drumming and dancing.

Some comments from the children:

Drumming is cool.

Sometimes we hit them and sometimes we didna.

We did dancing too.

I liked the drumming best.

It was so loud!

It was loud and it was quiet.

It was fun.

We loved seeing the Jarl Squad and the galley. We sang songs, marched around, dressed up, made torches, axes and hats and watched videos of the galley burning too. Then we used the interactive whiteboard to watch what happened in Lerwick. We saw some of our friends in the Jarl Squad there too, it was so exciting!

We had such a busy day at Fraser Park. We ran, jumped, hopped, balanced and danced. It was lots of fun and it was great to have so many families join us. We even had some helpers from Primary 6 too, thanks to them for being so kind, caring and supportive.

After a little snack break it was time for our grown ups to do some racing and we all enjoyed cheering  for them!
