Superworm comes to P2!

We love the book Superworm by Julia Donaldson, and have used it for learning through play.  This approach is called 'Plan Do Review'.  Children plan their own learning and then carry out a 'review' of how it went.  This time we finished with a piece of writing based on the story.  

We learned in lots of different ways, but the main learning is to be able to 
work safely and fairly together.

                             Visit from Dental Nurse Cole's mum came to teach the P3 classes how to look after their teeth. They got a big shock at how much sugar is in their favourite sweet treats and drinks! They are learning how to choose snacks and drinks with less sugar.                                     Thank you Claire

Lynne Spence, NHS Orkney (Ramsay's Mum) came to P3 to tell the children about the digestive system. The children were amazed at how the inside of their bodies look! Catherine Edwards (Woody's Auntie) is a Specialist nurse. She taught is the importance of good hand hygiene to help prevent us feeling ill. Thank you both for helping us to learn how to keep healthy.

ECO Action Day

We turned Papdale blue for ECO Action Day, and had fun activities which helped us to think about how lucky we are to have toilets and clean water - things we normally take for granted. We not only had fun, but we raised lots of money to take part in  'Toilet Twinning'.  Thank you for your support. If you want to find out more you can visit the website  https://www.toilettwinning.org/group/schools/ An ECO Hunt at the Adventure Playground for us to find our class question.  We now have to research to find out the answer to take to Assembly on Friday. 'Walk in your shoes'    We then had a big bottle of water to carry across the All Weather Pitch in relays.  This made us think about how lucky we are to have clean water in taps and not to have to walk miles to carry it to our home or school.
