Learning Across the Curriculum
Next week in class we will be looking at planning, shopping for and creating a healthy meal or snack. Please write down a recipe of something you enjoy eating at home. Try to choose something which is healthy so that we can share them with the class.
You could use cookbooks, the internet or apps to find recipes as well as talking to family members.
At Royal Mile we are keen to share our learners’ wider achievements, whether they be big or small. Please use the form below via the link or scan the QR code to tell us about what your child has achieved. We will then display the achievements in our open area and present your child with a certificate in assembly.

Coming up in class we will be looking at social issues facing people within our school community. The children chose to focus on the cost of living crisis and homelessness as issues they would like to learn more about. For home learning research a group, charity or organisation who offers help or support for people either experiencing homelessness or struggling with the cost of living.
You can share this as either a poster, speech or presentation.
