Last Wednesday was the first Forest School session of the new term and what fun was had. From making traps, to rolling logs and building towers, we showed problem solving, creativity, communication and teamwork skills all while playing.

Members of the Health Promotion Group had a quick trip over to Camphill Schools to see the final stages of our Buddy Bench which is being crafted by some of the students. Pupils got to try the bench for size and learn about the woodworking process. @CamphillACS @AberdeenshireLL

Yesterday we surprised Mrs Downie with a presentation from the children to celebrate her retirement from teaching. Part of the fun included a video made of the funniest memories and giving her, her first ever medals! We will miss you so much Mrs D!
