Curling

On the 30th of January 2014 we went to curling in Stranraer for a school trip.We went on the ice and I slipped over 3 times so then I had to get some grips so I wouldn’t slip over.We had some practise so we could get the hang of it.It was very hard at the start but I started to get the hang of it.After that we had a rest and had some biscuits.Then we had a game against the other side which we were sharing the ice with.We won by 1 point so at the end the team I was in got a medal each then we went back to school.

cool curling at north west castle

Hi everyone,

Today p6\7 went to the north west castle in Stranrar to do curling and I must say it was very fun.  All of the coaches were very kind were so kind and they taught us how curl well.  first we learn’t how to do it and not let go of the stone and then we learn’t how do let go of the stone while doing it which was a bit harder at tyhe start.  At the end before we went we had a proper cometition but befoe we did we to shake they other teams hand to show good sportman ship. But before we had the comprtition we had to pick who would play what place.  In my team there was Connie, Kathryn, Iona and myself.  Iona was the skip Connie was the lead and Kathryn was number 2 and I played number 3.

Bye Bye from Kristy

Curling’s Cool

Hi, 😀

Today we went  on a curling trip to Stranraer. We went on the trip with Kirkcowan P6/7s.

When we got there we got told the rules then we went on the ice. It wasn’t as slippery as we thought it was going to be. 😉

Our instructors were Beral and Lesley. They were both really nice and supportive.

At the start we were a bit wobbly with our gliding but we got better as we went along. After that the main instructor came over to see how we were doing. Beral told her we were doing fine and we were going to be great in the actual game.

We stopped for a lunch break half way through and had juice and biscuts.

Then we went back in and we had a game with the people that where at the oppsite end of the rink we had the Leader who was the person who delivered the stone and the 2nd and the 3rd person are the sweepers and the 4th is the skip. It was loads of fun and we would definately enjoy going again.

THE LION KING

On Wednesday the school went to Edinburgh to see the Lion king. The only problem was the trip to Edinburgh because it was a big trip. At last we got to Edinburgh and the show was on. The big elephant was cool and I was amazed the elephant didn’t  fall through the stage. But at the end the big elephant didn’t come up but a little elephant came up in stead.

the lion king

On Wednesday we went to see the lion king. We had to leave at 8.30 am to go on the bus. It took 3 hours on the bus . We were  singing on the bus.  Me and James were looking at houses out the window then it was lunch time. I had a sandwich and sweets  then we went to the toilet and went back on the bus.  Me and Benjamin played hangman then we got to Edinburgh. We got out of the bus and we walked to the theatre.I enjoyed the elephant and heynas and skar. It took 2 and a half hours but it was finally finished. On the way back  Aaron was annoying me but we got back to Wigtown.
