What a busy term we had last term in Pentland, we have done lots of exciting activities. Everything from messy play with flour and shaving foam- not at the same time! to painting with kitchen utensils and toothpaste. We have done lots of physical things like PE, dancing and dressing up and even had time to fit in lots of walks. On our last walk we decorated some hard boiled eggs for Easter and rolled them down a hill. Here are some pictures of what we have been doing.
We have been extremely busy in Lomond class with science and engineering week- making a ball machine that activates a bubble blower, making boats for the water tray outside and created a snack train. Not to mention Fairtrade fortnight activities and Easter too.
For Comic relief we explored red in sensory play which everyone enjoyed, dressed up as super heros and carried out a hunt for red noses around Craigshill. Madison loved ticking off the noses we found on the checklist while Tommy and Angel spotted the noses.
DING DING!! We have also been developing our cycling skills this term out and around in the community of Craigshill. Madison has developed her confidence in cycling outside on the bike. Tommy and Angel are enjoying cycling independently and they are starting to learn how to steer the bike. We will continue with developing their skills next term. Well done Lomond!
We’ve had another very busy and fun filled term in Hopetoun.
We only had 2 busy bees in class for the first half of the term….
Then after the February break we were joined by 2 more busy bees…
In case you missed it, here’s our Science week video…
We can’t believe there is only one more term to go!
Phew – another term over can you believe it!!
What a great time we have had this term despite all the restrictions. We have been able to fill our time with lots of new and exciting opportunities and experiences.
We have really missed William and Rylie and hope that they will be back to join us soon.
Aria, Luca and Vanessa have been busy working towards their ASDAN and SQA qualifications throughout the term and it has been fantastic to see them build on their skills and show the progress they have made through the different activities they have participated in.
We have tried out new games which has been sooo much fun for both the staff and the children. Our table top games have been a hit with a variety of games played over the term – Scalextrics is the clear favourite when given the choice! We have got some new games to try next term – I wonder what the favourite will be? In PE we also tried out some old and new activities but this term we had it in the class so a little different. This didn’t put off the children and we still had great fun with bowling, parachute and curling to name a few. Next term we will be trying out some different activities in the hall again – maybe outside too if the weather gets better.
We have been making the most of the good weather recently and been going on lots of walks and bike rides around the local area. Aria is helping her aunty to clock up some miles for a sponsored walk she is participating in for Beatlie!
Our gardening project has also been brilliant and all the children have really taken to the different activities involved – we just need to be patient now and see what comes from all of our hard work. We are hoping that after the Easter holidays we will be busy maintaining the garden and harvesting towards the summer.
I could go on and on about all the fantastic work and achievements we have made over the term so have a look at just a few of our photos showing how much fun school can be!
What a fantastic 2 weeks of Fairtrade Activities we have immersed ourselves in at Beatlie.
Thank you to all the staff for providing and supporting the children in participating in such fun activities and sharing the message of how important it is for us all to support Fairtrade Farmers and Workers in the world we live in today!
