Last Wednesday we went to Abriachan for the last day of Forest School.  We had to get straight in to change in the GP room for Forest School.  once we got changed we had to hurry and run to the bus.

When we got there we played at the park for 20 minutes then we went to the Dragon Fly pond.  Then we went to our base where we have never been before.  We had a BBQ with a hot dog (yummy).

It was really bad weather but it was still good.  Lewis S

At Abriachan Forest we played in the park.  Then we wnet for a walk to the pond for dragon flies.  We couldn’t go to the main tree house becuase two rope ladders were off it.  And then we went on a walk to the shelter for a BBQ.  Campbell

Robbie Sherrif from Brockie’s Lodge accompanied by Sheila, his head chef, treated P6/7 and P7 to a healthy eating demonstration.  We had to taste a variety of shop bought and home prepared food and make comparisons.  Everybody tasted everything and we had a brilliant time.

On 26th May P6/7 and P7 held a concert for some of the older residents of the village.  A great time was had by all.

Later in the week the pupils were delighted to receive a thank you card from Mary on behalf of those who had attended the concert. 

Children should bring PE clothes this week.  Although we’ve planned specific activities during this week we continue to promote a healthy lifestyle throughout the year in the myriad of activities we do.

P5 have been learning how to make smoothies as part of their topic on health.  Last week each team had to decide which fruit to put into their smoothie.  This week they got to make and taste their new drink!  Each team have also been writing a jingle to help promote their product and learning about food labels so that they can design a food label for their smoothie. 

Tell us about your smoothies, P5.

P5 and P5/6 completed their 3 week block of golf lessons. Everyone had a great time and learned lots of new skills including teamwork.  We hope Dawn (Sports Co-ordinator) will be able to visit again soon to give us some more golfing lessons.
