Spring term in Lomond class

March 30, 2023 Mrs Devlin Leave a comment

What great fun we have had this term. We have been lucky to be able to go horse riding and the weather was really kind to us. We have done lots of sensory exploration through water play, messy play and our sensory boxes. We have let our imaginations shine with some dressing up and some imaginary play with babies and water- what a great combination!

We are looking forward to going on some new adventures next term, hopefully the sun will continue to shine for us and we can spend lots of time outside.

Here are some of our highlights from this term.

Term 3 in Hopetoun

This term has absolutely flown by and we’re so excited to finally see the beginnings of Spring outside!!

We’ve had another busy term getting involved in our school Eco work, Fairtrade activities, Comic Relief and had the best time at our Burns Ceilidh. We’ve also been busy starting our new topic all about people who help us in school and have had fun taking photo’s of people we find who help us as well as getting involved in some of the jobs that they do and we’ll be continuing this topic after the Easter holidays.

We hope you all have a lovely Easter.

Pentland – Term 3

March 28, 2023 Mrs Kerr Leave a comment

I think I say the same thing every time … but how is it the holidays again already?!?!

We’ve had another very busy term and especially enjoyed our families coming in to join us for a Clown Doctors session, Burns’ Ceilidh, Fairtrade cafe and Red Nose Day cafe!

Our current topic is Spring which we will be continuing next term. We have also taken part in Chinese New Year, Valentines, ECO and British Science Week activities. Phew!!!

Two of our favourite activities were making Mr Nonsense (now our new class mascot) for the Red Nose Day cafe and throwing our wildflower seed bombs around the woodland to help the local wildlife…

The staff working hard too…

Think they enjoyed it as much as the children…

Our finished product…

Happy Easter from everyone in Pentland!

In Duntarvie class we have been very busy learning out in the community and have created some videos of our favourite things we have been experiencing and participating in this term – hope you enjoy them.

We are looking forward to getting to explore further on our bikes next term and making the most of the lovely weather (fingers crossed). We are also planning to get back to check on all our berry, fruit and vegetable plants at the community garden.

Have a lovely Easter break.

Thank you to everyone who came along to our Comic Relief cafe, we raised £175.30! Well done to our two sweepstake winners – the winning dance was Roly Poly.

Science day, Beatlie 2023 – sensory connections

March 14, 2023 Hazel Swanston Leave a comment

This year the theme for science week was connections so we decided to have a seaside and underwater adventure where we could explore all our sensory connections.

We had lots of fun exploring different elements of being at the seaside and a range of reactions to some of the sensory items we were using – hope you enjoy watching our video.

Fairtrade Fortnight

March 3, 2023 Miss McNaughton Leave a comment

Fairtrade Fortnight 2023 is all about spreading a simple message: making the small switch to Fairtrade supports producers in protecting the future of some of our most-loved food and the planet.

Did you know?

Coffee, bananas and chocolate could soon be much more difficult to buy.

Climate change is making crops like these harder and harder to grow. Combined with deeply unfair trade, communities growing these crops are being pushed to the brink.

But here’s the good news.

More people choosing Fairtrade means extra income, power and support for those communities.

By making the small switch to Fairtrade, we can all support producers in protecting the future of some of our most-loved food and the planet.
