Fun in the Rainbow Room

A fun-filled week in the rainbow room! We’ve been busy making invitations for our Fairyland celebration so if you’ve not received that have a check in bags and pockets! SAVE THE DATE 20th June at 9.10am!

We played with the sand trays and we have agreed it’s very relaxing!

We practised some relaxation and breathing to help keep us calm and relaxed.

Thank you parents!

Thank you very much for joining us in the Rainbow Room, we hope you enjoyed your visit and learning more about what we can do and how we can support you at home.  If you weren’t able to make it please do give us a buzz or send in a note and I am happy to meet with you any time! Thanks again for your support.

Happy Learners in Primary 3

Mrs Sutherland has had a lovely time in Primary 3. This morning we heard from one of our pupils who brought in some sporting medals and certificates. This allowed us to have a discussion about being a good team leader, being a good team player, being fair and keeping healthy. Yesterday we listened to a story about one of the world’s naughtiest children and one of the boys brought in a book from home which has even more stories about naughty children!

Thank you Primary 3. I have enjoyed sharing your learning with you!

Spring learning in Nursery

Over the last few weeks the children in Nursery have been busy learning about what happens during the season of spring. They have been learning the names of baby animals and flowers that we see in spring. The bulbs on display in Nursery helped us learn about the different parts of a plant. We have enjoyed being creative with different materials for spring themed art and craft activities. We used books and natural resources to inspire us.

     Learning about parts of plants   

In the garden the children have planted potatoes and are now learning how to care for plants to help them grow. The pea and sunflower seeds that were planted inside have now been transferred outside to our little greenhouse. We have been watering them carefully and watching the shoots grow taller.

 

Some of the children carried out an experiment to investigate how water travels through a plant by putting some cut flowers in vases of coloured water. When we looked closely we could see that in some of the flowers the coloured water had moved up through the stems all the way to the petals!

  

The children have shown a lot of interest in minibeasts and we are starting to learn more about them. We now have caterpillars  in Nursery. The caterpillars are busy eating and are growing very fast. We can’t wait to see what happens next!
