P1M and P1S children visited the Botanic gardens in Edinburgh for a very special teddy bears picnic today. We learned what bears need to survive-ask us about SWAF (Shelter, Water, Air and Food). We hunted for paw print clues, played games and built our own islands in groups. Tosca, our school teddy, had a great day out and was very well behaved. We were even joined by some ducks this afternoon!
The children are desperate to go back again-maybe you could visit at the weekend or during the summer holidays?
You were commended on your super behaviour-well done boys and girls, it was a pleasure being part of this great day with you. I’m sure we’ll all sleep soundly tonight! Tosca is already snoring!!
A special thank you to our parent/adult helpers-we hope you enjoyed your day out too.
Boys and girls, what wonderful pictures! It looks like you had a great time. I was not surprised to read that you were commended on your excellent behaviour. I am so sorry that I missed the trip as I love going to the Botanics and I have some teddy bears at home who would have enjoyed this! I am feeling better every day although I still have to do a lot of hopping as my foot is still sore. You would think I look very silly!! I hope that I will be in school to see you soon as I miss you and Mrs McKay very much!
All the children, and Mrs McKay, are missing you, Mrs Sutherland. Hope you make a speedy recovery.
