Primary 1 – 4 Halloween Party
Stirling Clan Counts
Hello folks,
This Term in Stirling clan we have loved investigating our namesake Stirling City. We have looked at mapping the town using grid refrences and key landmarks. We have created symmetrical landmarks and looked at shadow and perspective in art. Through our grid refrences we have explored cardinal points, angles and transformation.

Maths Week Scotland – F1 Data for our Clans
The children in Ben Lomond and Ben Lawers, Thistle and Schiehallion and Bluebell and Bramble were given the exciting task of reading, sorting and analysing data with Formula 1 as a focal point. Through a series of rounds the children competed in groups against one another to gain points – these points then propelled them around the racetrack (or sent them off the track!).
Massive thank you to the University of Edinburgh and their F1 Data in Schools team for this support.
Ultimately this led to one team’s vistory for their year group!
See the photos of all their fun below:
