P7/6 Go Wild
P7/6 had a fantastic time taking part in a Kids Gone Wild session in our school woods, enjoying an afternoon packed with adventure, creativity and fresh air.
The session gave pupils the chance to connect with nature while challenging themselves in new ways. One of the highlights was tree climbing, where children were encouraged to assess risks, support one another and build confidence as they explored the trees safely. It was wonderful to see pupils demonstrating resilience and problem‑solving skills while cheering each other on.
Another popular activity was slack lining, which really put balance and concentration to the test. Even when it was tricky at first, pupils showed great determination, learning that perseverance and practice can lead to success.
There was also time to slow down and relax. Pupils enjoyed resting in hammocks, taking a moment to lie back, listen to the sounds of the woods and appreciate their surroundings. This calm, mindful time was a lovely contrast to the more active challenges and helped everyone feel refreshed.
Throughout the session, pupils were encouraged to engage in creative play using natural materials found in the woods. From imaginative games to building and storytelling, the children’s creativity flourished as they worked together and let their ideas lead the way.
The Kids Gone Wild session was a brilliant opportunity for P7/6 to develop confidence, teamwork and creativity while enjoying the benefits of outdoor learning. Smiles, laughter and muddy shoes at the end of the day showed just how much everyone gained from the experience!
STEM in P4/5
In IDL this week, P5/4 were learning about load, structural integrity and tension. We used this learning to work collaboratively to build a bridge using only lollypop sticks and sellotape. We then had to measure how much weight our bridges could hold. We used skills like prediction, trial and error and collaboration. We had great fun and were impressed with our structures.

They finished this week by exploring how different countries celebrate Christmas, discovering lots of interesting traditions.
It’s been a fun and busy lead-up to the holidays in P5!
