GET SPORTY with Active Schools 2013

January 10th, 2013

Active Schools co-ordinator Adam Martin, came into the school on Tuesday to speak at our whole school assembly.

He told us about all of the new and exciting clubs and sports that are going to be open to the children of St Martin’s Primary this term.

I have attached the letter to this post if you have not receievd the paper copy. Please remeber the letter should be returned to the address on the cover letter and NOT to the school office.

All places will be allocated on a first come, first served basis. BOOK NOW to avoid disappointment.

Remember what Adam said, every child should be doing 60 minutes of physical exercise a day.

Enjoy your new sporting events! We look forward to hearing all about your time spent with Active Schools.

Potatoes!!!!!

June 25th, 2012

On Wednesday 13 June ‘The Garden Gnomes’ harvested the potato sacks that they had planted earlier this year. They were given to us by ‘The Potato Council’ as part of their ‘Grow your own Potatoes Competition’. It was great fun harvesting the potatoes! Our potatoes were not as big as we had hoped but at least we tried! We’ll send our results into the competition anyway. Next week we are going to cook and taste the potatoes. YUM!

Gardening Indoors

April 26th, 2012

Week 2 of Gardening Club and because of the bad weather we had to stay indoors. We planted seeds in pots  with the help of Mrs McDonald and  also spent time making posters.

EW wrote this post for the website.

The Gardening club is restarting for Primary 6 So far there are ten members and our Head gardeners Mrs McDonald and Mrs Sharp. We were pleased to see that the RHS Campaign for School Gardening have send us a Garden Planner for different Months. Here are some suggestions for May:

  •  Sow some lettuce and radish.
  • Thin out seedlings sown outdoors if necessary.
  •  Plant out seedlings from earlier sowings once large enough.
  • Protect French beans, early potatoes and pumpkins if frost threatens.
  • Earth up early potatoes.

The Garden Gnomes

April 26th, 2012

Last week the gardening club started up again for the summer term. Ten willing helpers from Primary 6,along with Mrs Sharp and Mrs McDonald, tackled the weeding in the John Muir garden. The garden has been out of bounds for about a year due to the pitches being laid in the field behind the school. Can you imagine a year’s worth of weeds? It was not a pretty sight! Well done to all the workers! This year the garden club members have chosen a new name. They are to be called ‘The Garden Gnomes’. We hope we can work some magic and make the garden beautiful again.
