A little bit of rain hasn’t stopped us from getting out there on our walks this week! For our final week of walking week, each class went on a walk and collected some natural materials in the environment, experiencing all of the sights, smells and feelings of all of our findings. When we got back to school we put our materials to good use and made a lovely display board at the front of the school with our wonderful creations! What do you think? We think it looks great!
Well done everyone on another successful walking month of May!
Another busy week for all the children in Beatlie getting out and about this walking month. This week we went on a sound walk – we found all the pictures of the rainforest animals and used our talking buttons to play the sound that they make. This was lots of fun and some of the animals sounds made us laugh! Lots of nice sunny weather for us this week too – hopefully it keeps up for us into next week!
Happy International Walking Month!! The theme for this years walking month is the rainforest and how reducing our carbon footprint will help the rainforest and the animals that live there. This week each class has gone on a local walk and have been on the hunt for some rainforest animals on their way.
See how many you can spot in our photographs….
Today some of our learners attended the ASN Football Festival at Broxburn Athletic FC. They had a fantastic time, working on kicking and dribbling skills, and especially enjoyed playing a a giant game of hungry hippos!
This week Beatlie got to experience and participate in Spring Clean Week. A chance to tidy up the garden areas and local community before we break for the holidays!
The weather was perfect for us all to get out and about in the gardens and local community for all to litter pick.
This all helps our environment too!
Check out some of our videos from science week.
The theme this year was adapt and change some of the ways we explored this theme were:
Hope you enjoy watching some of our best bits.
We had a visit from Fischy Music on Friday as part of our Family Fun Sessions this year. Thank you so much to the pupils, staff and families who came along and took part. There was lots of dancing, singing, signing and definitely plenty of fun! We hope to welcome Fischy back soon.
Last term Ochiltree took part in lots of upcycling projects and today was their final project as they hosted a pre-loved clothing event. They worked very hard to sort and lay out all the clothes, then today everyone had a job to do such as greeting the visitors and manning the stalls. This event also helped us mark the launch of our non school uniform clothing bank.
Some pupils and staff came along for a browse too!
Caroline from the Advice Shop also came along to support families with any questions.
Last week 3 of our pupils attended the ASN Boccia and Curling Festival run by Active Schools with the college students at West Lothian College.
We took part in lots of different stations to develop our throwing and rolling skills, and had lots of fun!
