During the Summer term P1 will be exploring the topic of 'Fairy-Tales'. We will look at lots of different Fairy-Tales and explore the characters from these stories. At the end of the term we will hold a Fairy-Tale tea party to celebrate all of our favourite Fairy-Tales.
This term P1 will be exploring the topic of 'The Farm'. We will look at life on the farm, animals on the farm and read the story' What the Ladybird Heard'. We will explore the season of Spring and all the excitement on the farm at this time of year.
In January and February we are exploring the topic of 'People Who Help Us'. The pupils will learn all about different people in their community, school and homes who can help them. They will learn about their jobs and what they do to keep us safe. Hopefully we will have some special visitors to the class who will be able to share more about their role.
In November and December our new topic is ‘Toys!’ We will look at the difference between toys in the past and toys in the present.
We will talk about and show our favourite toy to the class and see how our toys work and move. We will also look at toys from around the world and Christmas traditions.
This term Primary 1 are exploring the topic 'All About Me'. The pupils will be looking at how they are special and unique. They will also learn about their bodies and explore the five senses. The pupils will look at pictures of themselves as babies and will talk about how they have changed and grown into children.
Our little gardeners in Primary 1 had a blast digging up potatoes in our school garden. 
With the help of the eco council and Angela in the kitchen they turned their harvest into delicious champ - a perfect blend of fun and learning in the school garden. 
Primary 1 have had so much fun looking after Miss King's caterpillars and watching them turn into butterflies. Yesterday we loved watching the butterflies fly as we released them into our garden. 🌳🌷
The class then wrote reports about their butterfly friends. 🦋
We then made the most of a beautiful afternoon and planted some more seedlings into our school garden. 
James showed us pictures of his farm and talked about what sort of work he does as a farmer. We got to ask him questions and learnt lots about the farm. We even got a chance to sit inside Farmer James' tractor.
Once the tadpoles get big enough we will release them into a local river before our classroom is full of frogs!
Love is in air
This week P1 has so much fun making and decorating heart biscuits and Valentines cards for their loved ones. We hope you love them!
For internet safety day P1 read the story ‘Digiduck and the Magic Castle’ which taught us about who can help us when we use a computer or iPad. We then talked about who we can talk to if we see something online that makes us fell worried or upset. We drew pictures to remind us of the people who can help us in school and at home.
A cosy morning making hot chocolate in P1
This morning P1 received a mysterious letter from Mrs Claus asking for their help to make Santa’s favourite hot chocolate. She sent P1 a bag of ingredients which the children had to choose which ones would be best. They then made some tasty hot chocolate and made a list of the ingredients to send back to Mrs Claus.
