What a busy week we have had in primary 1S.

On Tuesday we enjoyed making bird feeders with our Primary 7 buddies.  We used lots of skills mixing all the ingredients together to make them and then enjoyed walking up to the woods to put them out for the birds. Spending time with our buddies is always lots of fun.

As it was St Patrick’s day ☘️ on the 17th we learned all about his life and made lovely shamrock sun catchers. We used cutting and sticking skills.

Spring is in the air, Primary 1S have been talking about how flowers are starting to grow outside. We talked about how plants grow and what they need to grow.  In class everyone planted strawberry seeds to grow. We are going to look after them in class until they are big enough to go outside.

Fingers crossed that we manage to grow big strawberries 🍓.

Sweet week! This week we made a sweet treat, chocolate croissant 🥐.

We talked about he shape our pastry had to be cut into to made the croissant shape and all focused really well to make sure we rolled our croissants correctly.
They smelled delicious when they were cooking, and we all got to take the two we made home 🏠. We were so focused this week and keen to get them made we didn’t get as many photos 🤭

Wow what a great first trip at school Primary 1S had! We all sat very well on the bus and we managed to sing a few songs and play I 🕵️ spy.

We had lots of fun exploring the castle, first stop was the cannons! We were amazed at the size of the cannon balls.

We enjoyed looking at the crown 👑 jewels, the war memorial, the castle prison and much more.

We also participated in the animal safari where we  had lots of fun finding animals in shields and statues.

Another week in folks.  It has been a busy one!  Today we were learning about the different ways in which land is used in Scotland and how important each of these areas are.  We also recreated some of them using a variety of materials.  We loved getting creative.

We also spent a wonderful afternoon with Gary from the Singing Kettle.  He was fantastic and we loved every minute.

Just a few pics from last week’s World book day and Sharing the learning…

Have a great weekend.

Savoury week in cooking club for our P1 group.

We made sausage rolls. Some of us found it strange touching the sausage meat but we all tried really hard. Once we got our meat into a sausage shape we wrapped it in pasty and glazed them before putting them in the oven to cook.

Some of us couldn’t resist a little nibble before we got them home.
