Much like last session, during this term the children will be covering outcomes within the Relationships, Sexual Health and Parenthood topic within Health and Wellbeing.

It is important that we keep you informed of sensitive topics we are covering and make you aware of what will be taught at Early, First and Second level.

The video below will provide you with all the information about RSHP and what will be covered at each level.

We hope you find this information useful when discussing these topics at home with your child.

PLEASE CAN YOU HELP US?

Make a difference to your wardrobe and a child’s life!

As part of their work towards achieving Rights Respecting Schools Gold accreditation, Drongan Primary School with the help of the RRS committee are supporting the Cash for Kids Wear, Share, Care campaign.

We are encouraging our community to come together and donate any unwanted clothes and textiles you may have. These can be brought to school in bags and will be weighed and collected by Rag Bag.  Every tonne collected will raise £400 for disadvantaged children.

Look out for our posters in the community!

Items that can be bagged and brought to school are;

Wearable Clothing

• Sports wear
• Suits
• Dresses
• Jackets
• Scarves
• Baby Clothes
• Handbags
• Belts
• Hats
• Paired shoes

(No uniforms or work clothes with logos please)

Please bring any bagged items to the front entrance of the school anytime before the 30th March.

Thank you for helping us raise as much money as we can for disadvantaged children and promoting the importance of recycling ahead of Global Recycling Day on 18th March.

The RRS Committee

Some  of our P3 and P5 pupils have had the opportunity over the last few weeks to explore and engage in some exciting, wider curricular activities.

The children have shown great team work and these activities have stimulated great discussion.

Making Pancakes

The children got the chance to measure their ingredients, whisk and stir the mixture, make and flip the pancakes on the griddle and prepare and add toppings. Don’t they look delicious?!

Making Modelling Dough

The children enjoyed watching the liquid turn into dough as it warmed up. They had a great time exploring the different textures and making their creations.

Weaving

What beautiful patterns the children created through their weaving. These were made into coasters, hanging decorations and gifts. Very talented children!

Making Rocky Road Cake

Each Week, Primary 4-7 have the opportunity to take part either individually, or as a class, in an online  “Kahoot” quiz.  This is a friendly competition, encouraging the children to keep practising their multiplication facts.  Have a look at the Numeracy and Mathematics blog to see who’s top of the leader board, and to access the quiz for this week.

Good Luck!

As part of our Rights Respecting Schools journey, we now have Playground Charters in both our infant and upper playgrounds.

Last session, P6 and P7 took part in a ‘Design a Playground Charter ‘ competition.  The RRS committee worked together to decide on the rights that should be included.

Our Playground Charter Rights are;

• Article 15 – You have the right to choose your friends and groups.

• Article 19 – You have the right to be looked after, protected and kept safe.

• Article 12 – You have the right to give your opinions on things and for others to listen.

• Article 31 – You have the right to play and rest.

The winning designs were originally going to be displayed in windows looking out onto our playgrounds. However the fantastic team at @BrandingHub in Ayr, very kindly printed our designs as huge banners.

Our banners are displayed in our playgrounds to remind our children of their rights and the responsibilities both adults and children have in promoting these rights.
