Antimicrobial Rocks!
Last week we found this rock at our front entrance. We were intrigued! We have since found out that this is a campaign to raise awareness of antibiotic resistance. The link below explains this in more detail:

P7 Classroom
Our P7 pupils are loving their new classroom! As part of a Digital Innovation project we were granted money to enhance the learning and engagement of our pupils. We used some of this to buy each pupil an iPad and some to buy new furniture for the class. We have 6 nodes, 6 beanbags, a standing whiteboard table, 6 wobble stools, yellow interlocking tables, a Promethean ActivTable and ActivPanel.
Feedback so far has been very positive! Here is Megan to tell us what she thinks!
