Internet Fraud

They are many ways to describe a Fraud but the basic description is a LIE. When someone describes their
product or service they want to pay for by telling you only part of the truth; or only selected parts of the
truth that trick you to believe something other than what really will result or deliberately lying , they are committing a fraudulent crime. So be careful on the internet.

Rangers Charity Foundaction

Me and my Auntie Fiona completed the walk with Walter Smith who is the Glasgow Rangers manger. Well me and my Auntie Fiona got this letter through the post and it said you were invited to this evenings ceremony and we got there on Monday night and there was loads of people there, after that the ladies would tell us where to sit and we each got to stand in a queue and wait for our names to be called out and a Rangers player presented our medals to us. On Monday afternoon I got to go and get a picture taken with the Rangers players and get their autographs it was really cool but at the same time I was really shy, but the goalkeeper gave my a signed t-shirt that said best wishes Allan.

P4/5

Hi there I’m Harry .
I’ve just arrived at Port Ellen Primary, and I’m staying for 3 months. However I’m English!

At Port Ellen, lately we’ve been practicing Robert Burns for Robert Burns NIGHT!!
My poem is ‘What will I do gin my Hoggie die.’  And it’s in a competition!
Also we are doing Scottish Country dancing, and are being paired up with P1/2.

In maths we’ve been working on fractions & time.

In computers we’ve been learning how to be safe on the internet and Quadblogging like I am now.  Parents are coming, for us to show them what we’ve learned.

In Literacy we’ve written 2 pieces of poetry, one on a piece of art.  We all had our own picture.   It’s a tournament too!
The other one is a competition as well, and we have to translate Address to a Haggis by Robert Burns!

Address to a Haggis Poems

As part of a competition run by Tesco, we have been writing our own versions of this Burns classic in P45. Here are 2 great versions of the poem written by Abbie and Harry.

The Slaughter of the Haggis

The gleaming feast,

Sliding into a watering mouth,

Which tenderly is swallowed down,

With pleasure and love.

A courageous taste,

Which melts into charging bombs,

That sings luxuriously,

Like a bagpipe.

Surrounded by armed neeps and tatties,

But the haggis defeats them,

Because he is crowned the most scrumptious of them all,

The king of gleaming feast.

By Harry Rennell

Haggis Running Late

Ye Haggis running up and doon,

I cannae wait to attack ye wi’ me spoon,

I’m hunting you, so don’t be late,

My bonnie lass just cannae wait.

Tonight the yowfing dug winnae feast,

We’ll slobber you all up my beast,

My sgian dubh will briefly slice,

Your puddins gushing out with spice.

By Abbie Morris

Robert Burns Day

On the 25th of January it is Robert Burns day and every one in our school has a poem to memorise. We all say it to professionals and they judge it and we find out who wins on the 25th. On the 24th the heats are at 12pm but my class only has 4 people so we just say ours to the judges on the 25th. My classes poem is called My Love’s Like a Red Red Rose and its written by Robert Burns. This is my poem

My love’s like a red, red, rose,
Thats newly sprung in June,
My love’s like the melodie
That’s sweetly played in tune.
As fair art thou, my bonnie lass,
So deep in love am I;
And I will love thee still, my dear,
Till a’ the seas gang dry.
Till a’ the seas gang dry, my dear,
And the rocks melt wi’ the sun;
And I will love thee still my dear,
While the sands o’ life shall run.
And fare thee well, my only Luve
And fare thee well, a while!
And I will come again, my Luve,
Tho’ it were ten thousand mile.
by Robert Burns
