Sharing Our Learning
We celebrated Scotland Loves Languages Week 2026 with a theme of ‘En Plein Aire’ – outdoors. Unfortunately the Scottish weather meant lots of outdoor plans had to be adapted to somewhere a little more sheltered, but the languages explored in just one week was very inspiring!
P3/2 have enjoyed learning lots of different ways to communicate. We collaborated in groups to create outdoor French games to teach P4 about the weather in French, learned how to say hello how are you in Spanish and Sign language. We then enjoyed a Spanish, Greek, Portuguese, Polish and Cantonese workshop. We finished off our Languages week by learning all about Braille and learned how to spell our names in Braille.
P6/5 have been learning the skills of benchball and enjoyed a spirited game this afternoon. We are encouraging teamwork and cooperation.
Slime club became play dough club today for our last session. We measured our flour, sale, oil and water and then got mixing.
During Collaboration Hour the nursery and P2/1 class learned about the celebration of Lunar New Year that is coming up soon in Chinese culture. Nursery and P1 children enjoyed a range of options including costume-play, dancing, sensory exploration, traditional games and woodworking their own dragons! P2 children researched some key elements of this celebration, and used their presentation skills to teach the younger children what they learned. All children had the chance to enjoy some healthy snacks related to the event, with several children discovering a new taste they enjoyed!
