Farewell to the Afternoon Butterflies
It was a beautiful sunny day to set the afternoon butterflies free. We sat up on the hill in the sunshine and watched them fly off up into the sky and to the trees. We have been responsibly caring for them and nurturing them since they arrived as tiny baby caterpillars! You can also view the video on the TV screen in nursery.
Sway Learning Story update coming soon….

Stories Springing to Life via AR Technology
Our work experience pupils from Bathgate Academy are having a very busy week….. Taking part in PEEP, fire pit learning, helping prepare gala day costumes and supporting children in using augmented reality apps to bring learning to life!
We have been exploring the under the sea themed story Starry Eyed Stan by Twinkl today on the Promethean ActivPanel. With help we then used the Twinkl AR app to scan special codes in the story, to see it magically spring to life!

Digital Storytelling
We have been exploring sea creatures as part of our Under the Sea learning interest.
On Tuesday we painted a giant ocean on a big piece of paper out in the garden.
Yesterday we drew sea creatures and gave them a voice!
Then we brought them to life using digital technology.
We used the iPads and a free app, ChatterPix Kids.
Why don’t you have a look at the video below we put together using Apple Clips
