As you know the Primary 1 children have been learning about food this term. To help this theme come to life and seem more purposeful the Primary 1 and 2/3 children were taken on a trip to Asda. Greeted by our lovely guide Matthew we were taken on a tour of the supermarket and given access to some special areas including the bakery and the checkout desk. The children had a wonderful time and have documented their trip through photos they took on the school ipads.
The Year 1 pupils have been learning about the lifecycle of a butterfly and have created a butterfly garden habitat.
Continuing on with our food theme, the children have been exploring the work of Guiseppe Arcimboldo. Giuseppe Arcimboldo was an Italian painter best known for creating imaginative portrait heads made entirely of objects such as fruits, vegetables, flowers, fish, and books. The children have used a variety of two and three dimensional materials to create their own Giuseppe portraits. You can see for yourself the results are amazing!
This term the Primary 1 children have been learning about food. Most recently we have been exploring fruit and vegetables from other countries. In class the children had the opportunity to investigate these unusual foods. We used our senses to examine their smell, look, taste and touch.
Thank you to everyone who supported our non-uniform day in support of the Kindred Spirit Elephant Sanctuary in Thailand. This elephant sanctuary is being set up by a former pupil of our school Kerrie McCrea. A presentation will be made at an Assembly in the near future to Kerrie's mum Carol who works in the Nursery.
To link in with our topic 'It's a Disaster!', we visited the Folk Park were we viewed an exhibition on the Titanic.
The Year 6/7s enjoyed this chance to look at artefacts and displays on the Titanic.
