P6bc went to Dynamic Earth for their school trip.  It was linked to their learning about Space and our Solar System.  The children had a wonderful day and enjoyed going through all of the rooms.  The weather stayed warm and sunny and we were able to eat out lunch outside.

Arthur said “I really enjoyed the Planetarium, the visuals were amazing.”

Hollie said ” we completed lots of experiments in our workshop and added water to a solution to create a solid.  We then learned that this is how the  astronaut`s suits absorb wee in space!”

Oliver said “We finished the day with the gift shop which was brilliant.  I bought lots of things.”

P6 visited the Nursery children last week.  We all walked up to Bathgate West enjoying the fresh air and some sunshine.

All of P6 were delighted to meet the nursery children and enjoyed playing with them in the garden.

Adam said “It was really fun playing with the children.”

Arthur said “I was teaching some of the children how to play football.”

Hollie said ” I helped a few children to do some gardening.”

Kaylee said “it was fun seeing the little kids play.”

Megan said ” When we arrived the little children showed me around the Nursery.”

We are all looking forward to our next walk to the Nursery and we hope the weather stays dry!

In Primary 6bc we have been learning about Standing stones to do with our topic of Myths and Legends.  The children used oil pastels and their devices to create pictures of standing stone in oil pastels.

The children also created their own fantasy creatures with different powers.  Nathan says “My mythical creature is a green slime, it has the power to read minds when it touches someone”

Megan says “I made a ghost horse and it can go into people`s dreams to stop them from having nightmares.”

Everyone has enjoyed coming up with very imaginative ideas based on their previous research.
