We all came back to school on Tuesday well rested from our holiday. We had singing with Mrs Gray and managed to do the daily mile.
On Wednesday we began to learn about the different rules that religions have. Some of us started in the Boccia lunch club- this was great fun, but very tiring. In PE we began atheletic circuit training, this was tiring too!
Thursday was an excellent day in P4a, Kieran came to visit AND we went to the Peel. At the Peel we met 2 rangers, Gordon and Will, who taught us all about trees, what they need to grow and how important they are. We studied and drew some of the trees. We also played a number of games which helped us learn about the four things trees need to grow and why they are so important to us.
After that we came back to school and had a picnic outside, this was great as we all got the chance to talk and play in the fresh air 🙂
Next we made Quidditich hoops out of tyres- this was a great piece of combined team work. Kieran had not been able to work out how to get the hoops to school so we solved the problem using a Growth Mindset. We then made broom sticks from fallen twigs and used a football to try the new resources out.
We are super excited to start our Quidditch lessons next Thursday, we think we are the only primary school in Scotland (and possibly the UK) to have these lessons!!
Today we had an assembly on Growth Mindsets, it was very interesting and reminded us that sometimes things are hard, but if we keep trying we will succeed. 🙂
Have a lovely weekend, hopefully there will be lots of sun!
