The morning nursery group came over to join P1 this morning to take part in a live glow meet with Emily from the Scottish Seabird Centre. Emily told us the story of Percy the Puffin, and we all joined in with noises and actions. We even felt the spray from the sea thanks to Mrs Campbell and a bucket of water! Over 30 nurseries and P1 classes from all over Scotland took part, and we all thought it was great!

A big thank you to all the teachers and children who made the first Glow Meet for Early Years and the National Parks and Outdoor Learning so successful. Percy loved you all, despite being in a huff during the story. He especially liked answering your brilliant questions (and being the centre of attention).
Percy will be sending postcards to any schools that send letters, photos or artwork to him at The Scottish Seabird Centre, The Harbour, North Berwick, EH39 4SS.
We’ve had a few requests for the counting rhyme words so I’ve added it as a download http://www.seabird.org/assets/postpercyglowsbc.pdf
Also we’ve had requests to get Percy’s story published, when this happens we’ll do another Glow telling of Percy’s Homecoming. If you can’t wait till then, I’ll be telling his tale as part of the ‘Stories by The Sea’ series at the Scottish Seabird Centre on 3rd April at 2.30pm.
Please come and visit us soon and check out our live webcams online. I’ll be back in the summer with the story of Maximus the Gannet and a trip to the Bass Rock (I’m writing his story just now). Then in autumn will have some super singing with the seals on the Isle of May.
Thanks once again, Emily and Percy

Wish I was there!!Sounds great!!
I went shopping today at B&Q with Tom Bevan for summer plants. After buying hosters I told Tom that i would need to go and buy slug pellets to protect the plants. Tom told me that i didn’t need slug pellets but that i could use broken egg shells instead. When i asked him how he knew this , he told me that p1 had leant this in the school garden! FANTASTIC. we are now adopting the organic approach with our garden pots. Thanks.
That’s great to hear that P1 wisdom is being passed on! Well done Tom! (Let’s hope it works)
