Tour Guides

1 Comment

This term the new tour guides have been taking on the challenge on learning the script.

A woman from Historic Scotland called Calen came in to the school to help train them. A couple of weeks ago they did a really fun workshop to help them, they played catch and pulled funny faces and vocal warm ups . They also did something called the blocking rehearsal  with Calen, which  is when you go round the castle and see where you need to stand and what features in the castle you would need to need to point to .

Good luck to all of them.

Orchestra Assembly

 

Last week the orchestra played at the assembly.

They were playing “The water music” and “The Hall of the mountain king”.

These tunes have been played before at assembly but were picked again because they had to tell them about their instruments.

They did an assembly to P1-3 assembly and P4-7 assembly.

It is the last time they are playing this term.

Musical Lunchtime.

Last week the choir brightened up lunchtime by singing in the lunchhall. They sang “You are my Sunshine” and “Pack up your troubles” along with other songs.  It was a lovely change.

Next week they are going down to the Meadows Old Folks Home to sing to the residents.

P.C Mckennan

P7 have enjoyed 2 visits from P.C Mckennan Police Liaison Officer. The talks were on Drugs & Cyber Safety. They are also going to be attending a talk from Mr McIntosh, The Gordon Schools about the Content & Drugs.
