P3 Trip to Kirk of Calder

P3 went on a trip and enjoyed it. We went to Kirk of Calder church in Mid Calder and we learned lots of things. We learned that the font is made from Gibraltar rock.  The trip was brilliant because we got to go downstairs, upstairs and stand in the pulpit, and then they were kind enough to give us a snack. We have written thank you letters to Bobby and Richard for being so friendly and helpful.

P6 Weekly Blog

We have been learning how to carry out emergency actions when we find someone who is not breathing.  We have enjoyed learning these vital life saving skills. In music we have been singing rounds and learning to follow a music map to play percussion instruments. Our next steps is to add in tuned instruments and we hope to be able to sing, play percussion instruments and tuned instruments all at the same time!

Primary 2

This week we have been learning about our class, school and local communities.  We talked about people who help us in each of these communities and how it is important to be a responsible citizens in them.  We used speech bubbles to show children being responsible citizens in the playground.  In art we used pattern to create letters for our class display and used print to create fire engines.

P1 & P1/2 Get Growing

This week, Primary 1 and Primary 1/2 have been looking at food journeys. First of all, we looked at how milk makes its journey from the farm all the way to our fridges at home (ask us to explain it to you!).

On Friday, we began to think about how vegetables grow and come from the farm to us. We got ‘green-fingered’ and planted lots of different vegetable seeds (carrots, peppers, sweetcorn, lettuce, cabbage, broccoli and leeks). We are looking forward to seeing how they grow!

We have left our seeds in our library corridor/greenhouse, so keep an eye out for any shoots peeking through!

Until next time…

The P1 & P1/2 Farmers 🙂
