The iridescent beetles revel in doggy dung; foxgloves, like the coniferous trees, rise towards the sky; and a poet's words flank the forest floor beneath the humbling heights of the magnificent trees of life, engraved upon tiles as a thank you and goodbye.

On 3rd June, 87 P5 pupils from Davidson's Mains Primary School went to Corstorphine Hill to remove Himalayan Balsalm. It is a fast growing invasive species which harms the natural eco-system.

Our class planted trees and flowers in school grounds!

Today we made bird feeders and then we went out to hang them on the trees. Our class did a great job and they were very excited!

Today was our final John Muir session. We presented our share section of our award to some of our school staff. We told them what we had learned, what new skills we have gained and also what we enjoyed!

On week 11 we went to Loch Lomond & Balloch Country park to walk part of the John Muir Way. The weather wasn't great but it was cool to follow in John Muir's footsteps. We walked a lot, learned the history of the castle & John Muir's time there and we also got to see Loch Lomond!

On week 10 we harvested rhubarb from our school garden and we used it to make rhubarb and apple crumble with the help of our home economics teacher. It was great to see it being grown, harvested and then used to make into something.
