Hello! My name is Ellie the Elephant. I have come all the way from Craigsville Elementary School in West Virginia in the USA to visit p1-3 at Port Charlotte Primary School. I was a bit tired after my journey but now I am ready to start sightseeing in Islay. I shall be visiting the children’s houses along with my new friend Barnaby.Looking forward to meeting you soon!Love from Elliex

I went to Calum’s house. I went Calum’s croft to feed the Highland ponies. These ponies are one of Scotland’s native breeds.

This week I went to Molly’s house. I went under the Christmas tree. I felt very excited because it’s nearly Christmas.

I made a new friend, Tiny Bear.

Bonny Bear went with Mrs Stuart to Monaco. When she was there she went to a school and met lots of children.

Bonny Bear went out to play with the children and had a shot on the slide.

Bonny Bear went to the Harbour and saw lots of yachts.

Bonny Bear had a very exciting time on her trip…especially when she got lost in Mrs Stuart’s suitcase!! She is now very glad to be back safely in Islay!!

We were happy to welcome back Mrs Mather as a parent helper, we also had apologies from Mrs MacTaggart and Mrs Bignal.
Mrs McLellan told us she had applied for the silver award!
We discussed writing letters to members of our community to ask for help with Eco projects.
We worked in our Eco teams:
Rosie, John, Scott – Waste Management – Went to see Mrs Maclellan in the office and she told us all the things she is doing to save waste.
Rebecca, Caitlin, Abbie – Energy – wrote a letter to Matt at GRAB to ask him if he could help us calculate our carbon footprint.
Connagh, Gregor, Calum – School grounds -wrote to Islay timber to ask if they have any spare materials
Millie, Beth, Emily – Biodiversity- wrote a letter to ask some experts to help us make a pond in the School Garden

Next meeting Wednesday 9th January at 9.00 am – all welcome!
