C1p have a wonderful week playing together after our holidays. Excitingly we’ve begun several new topics – we began learning about money today, recognising coins and on Wednesday we began our new topic on plants and growth. The children are absolutely loving looking at cress seeds germinating under a magnifying class and we all got a shot of planting a need in soil this week. Best of all we took a trip in the sunshine yesterday to the park to spot all the new life growing.

An t-seachdain, thòisich sinn an sgeulachd ur againn – Òireach agus na Trì Mathain agus chruthaich sinn ceistean ‘carson’ ma dheidhinn. Carson a bha Òireach a’ coiseachd a’ steach dhan taigh, ag ithe brochan, a’ suidhe san t-seithear agus a’ cadal anns an leabaidh? Carson gu dearbh? Tha c1P den bheachd gu bheil i gòrach, Òireach gòrach!
