Over the last couple of months the afterschool gardening club has been busy developing our vegetable patch. What started off as an unattractive ivy-covered area is now a thriving vegetable patch where we are growing potatoes, onions, peas. Next week we will be planting courgette plants and runner beans to grow up the large tripod structure. Mrs Hay’s father-in-law has made a sign for our patch too! We think you will agree that this has been quite a transformation and we are looking forward to cooking up our produce soon – suggestions welcome! Thanks again to everyone who has been involved in this project including all the parents who have worked with the gardening club and other pupils during golden time.

This week P6/7 have been learning about different parts of a circle and how to draw circles using different techniques. In class we have been measuring the radius and diameter of a circle and have used a compass to draw circles of different sizes. We have also been talking about the artist Kandinsky and how he used circles in his art work. We took our learning outside and drew circles using only string and chalk to create our own picture and then used paint to bring our art work to life!

Over the last two weeks P4/5 have been making board games based on their work in maths on fractions. Each group
designed, created and presented their game to our P6/7 pupils sharing with us the rules of the game and why it is a good game. Thanks to P4/5 for sharing their learning with us and for helping us to play your games.
