RSPB Wild Challenge

P1-3 were over the moon when they were each presented with their Wild Challenge Bronze Award and a set of stickers for all their efforts to help nature. Sara White from RSPB also praised the pupils for undertaking their three activities to help nature and three activities to explore nature since the start of the session. We are all delighted to do our part to help wildlife and the children are welcome to undertake more activities at home. For more info on how to get involved please see the RSPB website.

SSPCA Rabbit Rescuers🐰🐰

P1-3 were immersed in a rabbit world today. They heard a story about two adorable bunnies and how to care for them confidently, worked together on a class activity to decide if actions would make rabbits happy or sad, role-played a visit to the vets and used measurements to work out the ideal size of a rabbit hutch and run.

Despite the hailstones, P1-3 had a wonderful time with Saranne and Sarah at our beautiful, newly opened pond. We found tadpoles, water boatmen and pond-skaters😁
