This week P6/7 have been developing their coaching skills during PE lessons. On Monday we worked with WL College Sports Coach on our football skills.
We love PE and really enjoy when we have coaches in to take lessons, so much so we decided to take on the role of the coach ourselves for our PE session on Wednesday.
We worked our classmates hard!
Primary 3 have been working on partitioning in maths. Here they are explaining one of their strategies.

Last week we looked at the biodiversity of our woods. We found many plants and insects living there, so this week we took on the challenge of creating some bug homes/hotels for the wide variety of minibeasts inhabiting the area and to attract many more, using only resources we found in the woods.
When creating our homes and hotels we made sure to think about the conditions and requirements for the bugs – dark, wet, well concealed, access to food, etc.
The minibeasts moved in quickly!
We had such a fun morning in P4/5 this morning. We took our art out to the wooded area of our playground and used the materials and resources that we found there to create some fantastic pieces of art!
P6/7 have begun training for our Cluster pentathlon this week. On Monday we practiced our shuttle runs and coached and encouraged each other to better our times. Today we worked on speed bounces. We had to make sure our bounces were “good” by ensuring we took off on 2 feet, landed on 2 feet, so what better way to practice than using the pogo balls!
We then transferred this skill to the wedge and counted how many we could do in 20 seconds. It was tough and we were very tired afterwards, but had lots of fun and managed to better our score each time.
How many bounces could you do in 20 seconds???
The holidays are here and we are hoping that the lovely weather we have been having recently will continue.
Now lockdown is easing and the restrictions are relaxing, what better way to get back out and about than on your bike!
Here is some cycling information with regards to Covid-19 and some challenges and games that the whole family can enjoy during the summer holidays.
