Food Glorious Food

4C's Trip to the Sciennes Kitchen




First the children had to collect all of the delicious ingredients that they needed to make their soup



Once the vegetables had been expertly chopped up, they were put into the pan to cook.
This is the before picture!


And this is the finished product. . . looks delicious!





Bon Appetit! Primary 4C all loved their lovely lentil soup. 
Well done on a fabulous job!







Primary 4B try their hand at some archaeology!

The children got to test their skills digging for artifacts. They were careful when brushing away the sand to make sure nothing was damaged!



4B have been exploring hieroglyphics and have been writing different messages to one another.

The visit was a fantastic experience and a great time was had by all!

Cooking up a storm in the kitchen

Food Focus Week

4A have been working away in the kitchen this week making some delicious lentil soup.




Olivia, Minnie, Ailsa, Martha, Gulliver and Emil were responsible for peeling and grating the carrots while Tihomir, Nicky and Seumus bravely chopped the onions!

Rose and Anna did a great job following the recipe and keeping an eye on the pot.

We were very lucky to have lots of fantastic new aprons to keep us all nice and clean.

Team work!!



Evelyn, Izzy, Ben, Liston, Alaric, Ruying and Lucy took over chopping duties for the 2nd group


And finally the soup was ready. Bon Appetit!!






Thanks to the lovely mummies who were able to come in and help out. We appreciate all your help!

P4A 'Market Place'

After collecting lots of interesting facts during ICT about life as an Ancient Egyptian P4A were asked to work in groups to combine the information that they had found. Each group were asked to focus on one aspect of Egyptian life and to display their information in a poster. An 'Expert' was chosen from each group who then shared their new found knowledge with the rest of the class in a Market Place.

Izzy was 'The Expert' on Work


Martha was 'The Expert' on Food


Abi was 'The Expert' on Play


Olivia was 'The Expert' on Education


Lucy was 'The Expert' on Clothes

P4C's Pyramids at Sunset




Primary 4C have been working hard to produce these beautiful pictures of 'Pyramids at Sunset'. To do this they began by mixing water colours to create the stunning backdrop. Next they drew the outline of their pyramids and camels before painting them black.


Money! Money! Money!

P4A have been putting their money skills to the test by working out different money combinations and finding the correct amounts of change.
