Over the course of the year P5 have been discovering lots about the life of John Muir and the importance of conservation. The pupils have worked together to redesign the Quiet Area of the school grounds to create a wonderful calm, relaxing and inviting space for pupils and wildlife alike. Thanks to some fantastic parent helpers, P5 got down to some hard digging in order to plant a variety of fruit trees for future PPS pupils to enjoy. We are looking forward to future planting and painting afternoons! More recently we had a very interesting trip to John Muir Birthplace and had a wonderful day at Edinburgh Zoo, exploring new ways to protect endangered animals and visiting some very sleepy pandas. More recently, P5 spent a fantastic, though noisy, afternoon constructing bird boxes with Richard The Ranger. I think you will agree they did a wonderful job!
