Activities like this build independence, fine-motor skills, teamwork and curiosity — and of course, the best part is cooking and tasting the finished pasta! 😄👏 Watch this space for part two!

These learners rolled up their sleeves and made their very own fresh pasta using a pasta machine! From mixing the dough to turning the handle and watching the pasta ribbons appear, the children were fully engaged in a hands-on, sensory cooking experience.

Today our young learners turned our play space into a busy petrol station and car garage! From filling up cars to carrying out “repairs,” checking tyres and taking payments, the children were fully immersed in imaginative, purposeful play. #DunipacePlay

Our learners enjoyed a magical outdoor experience as we safely built a small fire together and toasted marshmallows. Moments like this aren’t just exciting — they’re rich learning opportunities connected to the Curriculum for Excellence. #DunipaceOutdoorLearning

From navigating climbing frames to testing upper-body strength while hanging, and experiencing speed and momentum on the slide, these learners are strengthening motor skills, building resilience, and discovering what their bodies can do. 💪 Play is powerful 🌟 #DunipaceHWB #LearningThroughPlay

These learners decided to use natural rainwater mixed with paint to create temporary artwork. They observed what happens when water mixes with colour, discussed textures and patterns, and expressed their ideas. They even role played being painters and decorators. #DunipacePlay

These learners were challenged to make a simple rocket which would travel as far as possible. They began to understand that forces such as push/pull and air pressure change motion. They investigated how changing variables like the balloon size and the angle of the string affect how far it travelled.

This group love baking and after successfully baking cookies last time asked to try cupcakes this time. They requested red velvet with cream cheese frosting so searched for a suitable recipe and used the iPad timer to remind them when to take the cakes out of the oven. 🕐🧁🥄

These learners had to be very careful when using the carving tool to create their pumpkin faces. They took their time and asked for help when it was needed. The finished pumpkins looked amazing! #DunipaceSkills @missnicoldps.bsky.social @mrscupplesdps.bsky.social @mrscrerar.bsky.social

These P1 pupils visited The Den this week and worked with a partner to carve a pumpkin. It was tricky to scrape out the insides and some of the children thought it was very gooey and sticky! #DunipaceSkills @missmckechnie.bsky.social @misscraig01.bsky.social

This week in The Den these learners worked together to follow a recipe to make their own playdough. They had to read and measure carefully and then they chose which colour they wanted to add. #DunipaceDen @mrscrerar.bsky.social @mrscupplesdps.bsky.social

Our P1 learners have been consolidating their SATPIN sounds through a fun and creative colouring activity. Fantastic to see growing confidence in identifying and using their new sounds! 🎨🔤

Chess has been a very popular activity in the Den this week. I've had my own knowledge and skills put to the test when coaching them through the moves.♟️ Chess supports problem-solving, resilience, critical thinking, numeracy, and communication skills — all key priorities of the curriculum.

These learners enjoyed time in the Den this week. They loved the football table and playing shops and planned their next activity. They wanted to bake so they researched a recipe and wrote a list of ingredients and when they came the next day they followed the recipe to make chocolate chip cookies.

These learners helped me set up the Book Fair and then spent some time in the Den. They achieved their name on the recognition board. By keeping our classroom tidy and looking after resources, we are respecting our right to learn #Article28 and helping each other enjoy our right to play #Article31

These learners enjoyed some time in the Den this week and did some painting. After finishing they displayed their completed art work on the Wonderful Work wall. They worked hard to get their names added to the Recognition Board by looking after the resources and tidying up the Den. #DunipaceUNCRC
