P5 Habitat Walk and Madala Art

3rd Jun 2025
Mr Mackle's Primary 5 class have been busy this week exploring their topic 'Habitats.' Today, the boys and girls went for a nature walk in our community down by the Leisure Centre. This experience allowed our children to acknowledge how important Habitats are and why. The 'River Walk' offered children an opportunity to see why trees, woodland and rivers offer animals and insects so much. It was a brilliant experience and in groups children were able to capture images of trees, squirrels, insects, birds and beehives. The children were then asked to gather some sticks, leaves and buttercups/daisies to help with a digital art activity in the afternoon. 


The class had the chance to work in groups and create a Madala art piece of work. The symmetry and patterns explored were fabulous. The boys and girls worked really well together today, it was a brilliant outdoor learning experience. Well done boys and girls.
