So far, we have enjoyed learning about healthy eating and the five sections of the Eatwell Plate – Fruit and vegetables, starchy foods, protein rich foods, dairy foods and fatty/sugary foods. We have learned that we need some of all these foods to have a healthy, balanced diet.

On Monday, we had a football session with Scott. We had great fun while having exercise.

On Wednesday, we had gymnastics with Nicola and Jenny.

We had lots of fun!

We tried yoga on Friday.

Stephanie and her dance group Chaotic came 3rd (out of 15 groups) in the Scottish dance competition in Glasgow yesterday. This means they have qualified for the world championship in August. Your family and friends at Greenrigg are so proud of you. Well done Stephanie!

Today we got to build our minibeast hotel. During our topic we have been learning about different minibeasts and their habitats. We also collected lots of materials on our trips to Polkemmet Country Park. Even though it was raining we just put on our jackets and got to work. We had to think how to put all the materials in to work for different minibeasts and look nice too. We are looking forwards to seeing who moves in.

P3/4 went back to Polkemmet Country Park for their second visit linked to their minibeast topic. We had a lovely day with the sun shining.

Luca won an award for playing football and rounders with his team at the Fauldhouse opening Gala Day on Sunday. Well done Luca!
