Today we joined in with the live CPR lesson for primary pupils. This was fun and interactive and helped us to understand what we can do in an emergency situation.

European day of languages
We had a special visitor in last Friday to share a little about Germany. This was Alfie’s mum Kat. Kat taught us a few key German words and she taught us a little about recycling in Germany as this is our school project. We are always very grateful for our parent volunteers who give up their time to help everyone. The children were very engaged and enjoyed Kat’s presentation.

Scotchip Farm visit – taking the classroom outdoors!
On Tuesday we were lucky enough to visit a family run business to see first hand how they grow the potatoes and the process of harvesting and processing them in their factory, before being sold to customers. This was a trip we won by growing the most potatoes in the summer term and completing a fantastic potato display. James and Sonia were great tour guides and took us around all the sheds, the factory and lastly we got to visit the potato fields.
Back in school, we boiled the potatoes from James, had a little taster then took a few home to cook.
Project based learning
The next part of our PBL learning was to find out about the different climates in our chosen countries. P1 had a science workshop on the four seasons, p3/4 were learning about world climates and the Equator. Primary 5-7 were finding out about different climates around the world using I pads, and the vocabulary we use to describe these places. Lots of super science, literacy, I.C.T and Geography work across all stages.
