Map reading, knot tying, harvesting willow and leaf caterpillars! It’s been a busy week of Outdoor Learning at Hermitage Primary. #outdoorlearning

P6 had a great time today learning about marine life in Scotland with Mia from @SAMSoceannews . We couldn’t believe how big some of the animals were and enjoyed measuring them out with our bodies.

P6 have enjoyed exploring place value, number lines, estimating and symmetry this week outside as part of Wild Maths! #mathsweekscotland

Ros from CHARTS paid P4 a visit today and brought with her a beautiful collection of paintings and images. This was a fantastic opportunity for the child to engage with art, they discussed what they could see and why the artist included certain elements. @CHARTArgyllIsle
