Rosneath Primary P5/6 class blog

Primary 5/6 at Rosneath Primary are delighted that their hard work this session has been recognised. Their blog (http://rosneathprimary56.primaryblogger.co.uk/) has been nominated for Class Blog of the Year in the Education Blog Awards 2012!

The initial aim of the blog was to share our learning with parents and help strengthen home-school partnerships, but it quickly developed into much more than that. Outstanding examples of our work are showcased on the blog and we take great pride in this. We have connected with other schools around the world through Quadblogging (http://quadblogging.net/)  and contributed to the World’s Biggest Blogging Project on 29th February 2012 (http://feb29th.net/). We enjoy taking part in the 100 Word Challenge and like to read other children’s work before giving them feedback on their writing (http://100wc.net/). Blogging has improved our ICT and literacy skills but most importantly, it is fun!

A Diamond of a Party

On Wednesday 6th June Lochdonhead Primary School had a Street Party to celebrate the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee which was absolutely amazing.  We invited people from the local community to come along and have some fun, with some tea and home baking on the side.  The pupils took on different responsibilities and worked co-operatively to make the day a huge success.  We want to thank everyone who came along and give a special thanks to Sir Lachlan MacLean for planting a tree in commemoration of the event.  We also want to thank the parents and staff for all their help.

JUBILEE CELEBRATIONS AT PARKLANDS SCHOOL

Parklands School Secondary Class organised their own street party to celebrate the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee! They invited people from the community who they wanted to thank such as ex-teaching staff and volunteers, representatives from RDA and invited guests from local shops and businesses.
The pupils planned the party and prepared all the food themselves – they even designed and sent out their own invitations. Luckily they had won £100 worth of vouchers and a Jubilee party pack from the Co-op so we were able to decorate our playground and celebrate in style!
