The children have greatly enjoyed their project on space – everyone has been very creative making rockets and space ships and an astronaut collage.

We celebrated the Chinese New Year tasting some Chinese food, using chopsticks and learning a few Mandarin phrases.

The children have enjoyed sessions playing various musical instruments including drums, tambourines, glocks, rainmakers and castanets. We have been experimenting with loud and soft sounds, rhythm and pitch. Great fun - you might have heard us from the park!

We also celebrated Burns night with our own Ceilidh - many reels and a few jigs and some solo dancing! This was followed by a supper of oatcakes with cheese and some shortbread. We even had some Burns poetry and singing from the teachers! The children looked fantastic in their kilts and tartan sashes.
