Sense of Place Residency - P5 to P7
2024-05-20 - 2024-05-21
We have organised a very exciting opportunity for our Primary 5 to 7 classes to learn together about the local environment and wildlife on Monday 20th and Tuesday 21st May. This is a joint venture involving our schools and Hope Spot which is a community-led celebration of this part of Scotland’s world-class natural riches. Over the two days, pupils will work with Pete Creech from Heart of Argyll Nature, Dan Coyle, local swimming and Gaelic tutor and a local artist on activities that will raise awareness and understanding of the very special environment, community and biodiversity that surrounds us. Full details of the event can be found in the letter issued on May 7th.

Please join us for a session on how learning works and how we can support our children to learn both in school and at home and make the most of their amazing brains. We will look at memory, the brain, retrieval practice and exactly what helps (or doesn’t help) different brains to learn. The session will be fun and informative and there will be refreshments. Mrs Carter will lead the session with input from others with expertise in the topic.
There is no homework to be done in advance (!) but if you were able to watch (or re-watch) the film “Inside Out” as preparation for the part of the workshop on learning, memory and emotions, that would be fantastic.
