Summer Term in Hopetoun, Our Local Community Topic

Term 2 in Glendevon

Sorry we are a bit late putting our review of term 2 on the blog and hope that all our families and friends had a wonderful Christmas and New Year.

Glendevon enjoyed all of the additional festive experiences including the performance, parties, Christmas garden and winter musical parade.

As always we have been working hard throughout term 2 and continue to use our multi-sensory space for a wide variety of purposes including:

  • to explore relaxation
  • to immerse ourselves in our topic story (which this term has included some of the beautiful items made through exploring materials in art time)

  • songs and singing utilising pupils different communication styles and methods

We hope to put together a wee video showcasing all the ways that we use the 4D room for the end of the year to share with all our parents.

Glendevon took on the roles and responsibilities of our facilities management team (Calum, John & Sandy) for International Children’s day and made sure pupil’s got their lunches, ensured paths were cleared and safe to use and daily school checks for security were carried out.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Glendevon’s eco representative has been hard at work in whole school groups throughout term 2 and focused on smaller garden spaces for Winter planting.

Glendevon boys have been exploring science concepts in messy science linked to our fashion and materials topic including; what materials to make our clothes from  and what would happen to different materials when placed in water.  Skills of predicting, showing preferences, retesting theories were all on display – brilliant work boys.

We are all ready for another fun filled term.

Unique Fundraising Café

Thank you again for the wonderful support you all gave our S6 pupil in fundraising for the charity Unique and helping him to progress on his Bronze Duke of Edinburgh journey.

These are just some of the photos from the event and thank you again to all the children, staff, parents, carers, family members, friends of Beatlie and community groups who attended or donated for such a great cause.

Craig (Chief Operating Officer) at Unique also thanked Luca ‘Goodness me Luca, that’s absolutely amazing! £900 is incredible and we are so grateful to you all for your wonderful support. Unique is a small charity and we can only exist because of fundraising like yours… it means we can be there to help and support families when they need us most.’

Term 3 in Duntarvie

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.
