As part of our topic work on Katie-Morag we have been learning and listening to some Scottish songs and music, so today some primary six and seven children  entertained us with a range of Scottish songs and tunes.

Andrew and Iona sang a Gaelic song beautifully. Christian and Dylan played The Skye Boat Song on the viola, Louise played Auld Lang Syne and finally Jamie and David played a range of Scotttish tunes on the chanter.

The children loved hearing the tunes and were also able hear all about the different instruments, so a big thank you to all the children from primary one/two.

Thanks to Jamie and Matthew for our super photographs.

Primary one/two went out to the garden to find materials that were hard, soft, smooth and rough.

Primary one, two and three enjoyed a visit from an author this afternoon. The author Lynsey Banks shared her story Super Fox and the Rabbit Rescue with the children. Then after a short discussion the children from primary two and three received their book bags with lovely stories and activities to enjoy at home.

Thanks to Erin’s Mum Mary for arranging the visit.

Primary one enjoyed visiting the Beauly Library today. Helen, the librarian read two stories and all the children listened really well. The children were then presented with their book bags with stories and activities to enjoy at home.

We are going to visit Beauly Library again on Tuesday, then fortnightly after that. The children will keep their books in class to share and enjoy with their peers.
