P6 Camping Trip

Primary 6 had a fantastic overnight camping experience at Dunsyre.  When they arrived they worked together to pitch their tents before enjoying a hot drink and a snack.  They then collected fire wood and staff cooked a lovely dinner of pasta, sausage, chicken and rolls.  After dinner they joined Lanark Cadets to do various exciting activities such as building shelters, tasting rations and camouflage activities.  They then walked back to our camp and we had a fire and toasted marshmallows and popcorn.  After a good night’s sleep they had a lovely breakfast al fresco  courtesy of Mrs Armstrong.  Thank you very much to Mrs Armstrong, Mr Scott and Lanark Cadets and all of the staff who helped to make this a successful trip.

P5/6 and P6/7 forest

P5/6 and P6/7 all enjoyed their last visit (of the school year) to the forest. They got themselves warmed up by doing a game of camouflage. They then were put into groups of 4 and had to make animals from natural materials. Some children choose to have a group member embedded in their design and others choose to make a 3-D animal – there was such a variety.

The children then had to make a game of their choice. Children had the opportunity to choose a game they already know or invent one of their own.
