Glendevon Term 1

We can’t believe that’s term 1 over and what a busy term it has been.

We have enjoyed exploring technology this term including using the life skills area and through our topic of taking care of ourselves.

We made the most of our good weather by getting back on our bikes and using the drive deck to explore independently.

On the theme of health we have been making healthy foods and snacks in term 1 developing skills in chopping, mixing and weighing ingredients. Our Harvest healthy muffins went down a treat at café.

We have enjoyed taking part in messy art activities to make resources for our class charter and had fun with a food messy play for Fairtrade fortnight involving chocolate.

We are looking forward to lots more opportunities to explore our new topic of fashion through our playboxes, sensology and multi-sensory sessions this term.

Term 3 in Duntarvie 23-24

Well Spring is here (hopefully when the rain stops!) And what a quick term it has been in the senior class.  We have all been busy working on our individual SQA awards including completing a charity upcycle project as well as S6 finishing bronze Duke of Edinburgh volunteering to organise and run a coffee morning.

We have particularly enjoyed opportunities to experience and participate in lots of different groups this term.  Just check out our photos:

  • Assembly
  • Clown Doctors with Hearts & Minds
  • Exercise Group at Polbeth Hub with Heidi McDonald Fitness
  • Musically Active Dudes with MUSAC at Crofthead Centre
  • Archery with Paul of No-Limits Sports Club
  • Multi-sensory
  • Music appreciation with Chloe and Callum from Live Music Now

We hope you have a wonderful Easter break and are well rested for a busy last 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! ÂŁ900 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.’ 

Pentland – Term 1

Ahoy Me Hearties from the Pentland Pirates!

What a busy (and quick!) first term here in Pentland. We started the year with a Pirate theme which we explored through various activities including art, cooking, sensory play, stories, dressing-up and physical games and activities…

Pirates was also the theme for our Class Charter…

We had a visit from Cool Creatures…

We looked for signs of Autumn during an Autumn Scavenger Hunt and used our senses to explore autumnal objects…

But our highlight has definitely been horse riding…

Our art wall so far with boats, treasure maps, treasure chests, leaf hedgehogs and shaving foam art…

Hope everyone has a great holiday and we’ll see you next term for the countdown to Christmas!!
