Arran Day 3

Miss Bradbury’s group had a brilliant time gorge scrambling this morning in North Glen Sannox. They really enjoyed the hot chocolate to warm up when they finished!!

Abseiling for Mrs Sharpe’s group this morning followed by lunch on the beach before the rain started.

Arran Day 2

Mrs Wren’s group were kayaking and seal spotting/beach combing.

Gorge walking for Mrs Sharpe’s team. They’ve had a whale of a time sliding, scrambling and leaping into pools. Everyone challenged themselves and took a risk and were so impressive. Mrs Sharpe and Mrs Starr were so proud! After they got back to the minibus they were rewarded with a nice warm hot chocolate!

National Environment Day Poems

It was National Environment Day on Wednesday so, in Beech Class, we read “The Lost Words” by Robert MacFarlane. It is a beautiful book full of “spells” about creatures and plants in the natural world.  We analysed the spells and noticed the use of adjectival phrases, similes, metaphors and rhythms. We wrote our own “spells” about creatures and plants that we value in our world.
