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.

Listening to the stories.

As part of our work in health, we are looking at our different feelings and emotions. Today we read a story about being happy and we thought about what makes us happy.

Primary one and two went for an afternoon walk and spotted lots of signs of autumn.

They found lots of sycamore seeds and made them spin like helicopters and then they thought of some super words to describe the leaves they found. Skye thought the oak leaf looked liked the antlers of a reindeer.

We used our leaves to make some pictures.

Look at all our leaves.

Primary 1 helped to carve our garden pumpkin for Halloween.

Enjoying picking and eating strawberries!

Primary one went to Braeview Park to look at what is in the park.

Tomorrow we are going to think about what might make the park even better.

Primary 1 to 5 enjoyed a Scots language poetry workshop this morning with Jill Bennet.

Thanks to the Community Garden for allowing the Beauly School Garden Group to visit their lovely garden. The children got a chance to explore the garden and then they helped out by planting and watering.

They were rewarded with some juice and biscuits for all their hard work. We had a great afternoon and would love to visit again!

The Eco group would like to give a big thank you to all the pupils and parents who helped make our book swap last Thursday such a big success.

We are happy to report that all children who brought a book from home left with a new book and story to enjoy.

Here are some photos of very happy and excited children with their newly swapped books.
