Primary 1 had great fun making chocolate apples and pumpkins from paper plates. We also enjoyed writing a list for a, ‘ Spooky Recipe,’ using the sounds that we have learned so far.
Primary 7 have been researching inspirational black role models for Black History Month. They worked with a partner to create a poster presentation and presented their findings to the class.
Primary 5 had great fun developing their rhythmic skills in Music. Great coordination and concentration!
Primary 5 have been learning about John Muir and have been looking at nature in our local area. We went on a nature walk in the rain! We had great fun and enjoyed collecting lots of natural objects.
We found a variety of leaves, sticks, berries and insects.
In P1/2 We enjoyed sampling some of autumns most popular foods. The children discussed harvest and tasted some lovely red apples, juicy green pears and a delicious pumpkin.
We held a vote and decided that the apples were by far the tastiest!
