Freya, in P1b, collected more work from school yesterday and is happy keeping herself busy with her home learning.  Well done Freya.

Fearne in S1 is helping little sister Grace in P1b with her home learning today by being the teacher.

The boys at Drongan Hub were working with Mrs Brady to up-skill their dance moves this morning. They were using imoves, which is free to schools at the moment.

A little bit of @creativeminds mindfulness was taking place at the Drongan hub this afternoon.

Our Right of the Week is Article 14.

Article 14 – Freedom of thought, belief
and religion.
Every child has the right to think and
believe what they choose and also to
practise their religion, as long as they
are not stopping other people from
enjoying their rights. Governments must
respect the rights and responsibilities of
parents to guide their child as they grow
up.

P1 pupils at Drongan were given the task of reading ‘The Snail and the Whale’ then writing as if they were the snail about a place they visited, what they saw and how they felt. Kayden is proudly displaying his completed work.

On Friday the kids at Drongan Hub made little pockets using felt and added messages inside. They took their pockets to the village pharmacy and hung them on the railings outside.  The messages can now be take and read then replaced or swapped for new ones.  What a lovely idea to maintain communication.

Hope this lovely weather holds for our P7s as they enjoy a fun-filled week at Inverclyde.
