On Wednesday the 13th October both Mrs Williamson's and Mrs Peacocke's Primary 5 children embarked on an EGYPTIAN ADVENTURE. They all came to school dressed as Egyptians and spent an activity filled day based completely around their World Around Us topic of The Egyptians. Everyone looked spectacular and a big thanks goes to all the parents who helped this day be a great success with supporting us with the excellent costumes, make up and accessories!!

Mr McKittrick visited the Primary 1 children. They looked at his uniform and learnt how his coat is fluorescent so he can be seen in the dark and that it has reflectors to help the cars see him.

The children went outside to practice how to cross the road safely with his help. They know to hold an adult’s hand, wait until Mr McKittrick calls them and to walk in front of him.

We remember to always say ‘thank you’ as he helps us to cross the road.

Primary 1 made lots of new discoveries when making jelly as part of their “Red Topic”!

They watched the jelly cubes melt when the boiling water was poured on.  A wooden spoon was used to stir the jelly.  The jelly liquid was put into the fridge to cool and set.  The next day we checked the fridge and the jelly was no longer a liquid, it had set!  It was wibbly, wobbly and ready to eat!  We all agreed it was the best jelly ever! It was DELISH!

Our first week on ‘apples’ has been lots of fun.

We started the week by planting our apple seeds in the lovely sunshine pretending to be Johnny Appleseed. The children enjoyed getting creative during structured play, making their own apples and painting apple trees. We finished off the week by tasting six different types of apples, can you tell which child was tasting the Brambley?

Primary 2 enjoyed planting their own apple seeds.  They added soil to their pot, planted the seed and watered it.  We also talked about how it is important that the seeds have sunlight to grow.  Everyone is really looking forward to watching what happens over the coming weeks!
