On Friday we went to check out the new Astro Turf in our playground. It is great! We will be able to play lots of different games there and not have to worry too much about hurting ourselves if we fall down.

       

P4/5 would like to say a huge Thank You to Longhaugh Primary for letting us borrow your X Box and Kinect for our Gaming Day. Kinect Adventure was a great game, we loved it!

Hey everyone you can see that p4/5 has done lot’s of posters for gaming day on friday 25th february so if you want to have some fun come along.

We are planning and organising a Gaming Day to raise money for our School. The children of P4/5 have arranged everything from planning the activity to creating timetables and advertising.

Have a look at some of the skills we have been learning and using this week.

First of all we made a mind map and discussed what we would need to make “Gaming Day” possible.

 

Advertising- We made some posters to display on the school notice board.

 

 

We updated our blog to spread the word around school electronically. The children of P4/5 thought this was the most Eco Friendly way of advertising.

We made timetables for each game to make sure we all get a fair turn.

Kaileb and Kieran prepared a short speech and went around all the classes on Thursday to remind and encourage the children from other classes to bring 20p to join in the Friday Fun. Kaileb decided it was best to show the game cases to try and sell our Gaming Day and make it look and sound as fun and enjoyable as possible.  I must say I was very impressed with your advertising and sales techniques you were both very persuasive!

All our hard work paid off,  just look at the fun we had.

 

          

      

 

     

 

       

 

     

 

We raised a whopping £56 from Gaming Day. Thank you to all who came along to support us. We hope you had fun.

 

 

 

Are you ready for some Friday Fun? Then come along to P4/5 to play some Wii, X Box Kinect or DSi games.
It will be 20p for 1 game or 50p for 3 games.

No league table we just want you to have FUN!

Hi mrs McDonald or anybody else that is on this I just wanted to ask if we can get Astro turf on the upper playground so nobody will get cuts or get hurt but if you can’t it’s ok but I’m just asking because I have seen a few people falling alot and it looks pretty painful.

on friday 25th of February you can come over and try guitar hero and just dance. 1 game is 20p 3 for 50p.
