Outdoor learning with Mary Russell School

After a series of 4 very successful visits from Mary Russell
School, the children of Room 7 got to return the visit to Primary 3b.
Each Thursday, a group of 6 or 7 children got on Mary Russell's minibus
and visited their friends in their classroom. They took part in many
different activities with a special focus on outdoor learning. Two
groups were even lucky enough to visit on days when it had been snowing
and were able to spend time outside exploring the snowy playground!

A healthy class!

As part of our Health Calendar activities, Room 7 had two visitors to help them learn about looking after themselves. Nurse Margaret came to talk about washing our hands (and Mrs Hutchison got out the glow box so all the children could check how clean their hands really were!) and Catherine came in to talk about toothbrushing and oral health. She even watched us to see how good we are at brushing our teeth!
