We’ve started the new term in the best way! 🎉 All of our pupils enjoyed an ACE Day with @barrhillprimary, taking part in team games, archery 🏹 and bouldering 🧗‍♂️. So lovely to make new friends and catch up with old ones! 💛

Best day at Little Peru 🦙✨ Alpacas, felting cute fleece decorations, amazing hot chocolate, and trekking alpacas & Valais Blacknose sheep. The weather couldn’t stop us – the perfect midweek pick-me-up after show prep. Thanks Claire Louise & Robin ��� https://t.co/IwGKtm9XYa

Perfect weather today for another fantastic outdoor learning session with Girvan cluster practitioners. We shared guidance on structuring lessons, participated in fun cross-curricular activities, and reflected on how to adapt them for our own learners. #outdoorlearning
