Reading Rainbows Nursery Trip to Fountainbridge Library
All Pre-school children were invited to a very special READING RAINBOWS TRIP TO FOUNTAINBRIDGE LIBRARY.
Mo, the librarian, read two stories ‘This Zoo is Not for You’ and ‘Every Bunny Counts’.
We enjoyed tasty snacks and drinks, made our own bus, and everyone was presented with a wonderful Reading Rainbows Book Bag which contained the books we had enjoyed listening to and other treats.
Thank you to the library for hosting this event and to all the parents who came with us and made this trip possible.

P4/3 Forest School Diary
Week 1- Back to the forest for some and a new adventure for others. The pupils had a great time getting to know their surroundings and making pictures on the forest floor.
Week 2- Lots of bug hunters finding different creepy crawlies in the forest today. Well done to everyone working well in their teams to make brilliant shelters.
Week 3- Not the best weather but never mind, hot chocolate in out shelter makes everything better!
Week 4- We used a bow saw today to cut ‘wookies’ (wood cookies)
Week 5- Don’t get stuck in the spider’s web or you might get caught! P4/3 had to use their balance and ninja moves to get across our giant spider’s web. We were all impressed by the flames our fire had and very happy to toast a marshmallow or two when they died down.
