Today we visited the amazingly beautiful Sorn Castle. We enjoyed exploring some of the rooms including the drawing room, the bedroom of the late owner and the dining room.
Mrs Connell’s favourite room was where they hold the weddings. She was keen to get a shot of the huge pipe organ.
We had a look around the grounds where we got to see how the electricity is generated by hydropower.
What an afternoon we had at our Easter Fayre!
The school was packed with visitors to have a go at each of our stalls. Even the rain didn’t stop our Beat the Goalie or the popular Sponge the Teacher activities.
A huge well done to the children for organising the event and massive thank you to our families for coming along and supporting our fundraising efforts. Our grand total will be announced soon so keep your eyes peeled.
Today our Rights Respecting School Committee got the whole school thinking about rights. They challenged everyone to look at all the articles and choose the 9 they thought was most important. This prompted lots of discussion and there were only a few groups who picked the same one. Then they had to choose their favourite right, explain why they chose it and draw a matching picture.
Well done RRSA Team!
We kicked started our 500 miles challenge today as the whole school and some of our families joined us on the Four Farms Walk! We walked a whopping 4 miles each. With 33 people take part, we’ve already walked 132 miles!
What a fabulous start to our fundraising. Thank you to our young people and families who joined us.
We had two very special visitors today from Cash for Kids and West FM. They answered lots of our questions and were interested in how we are fundraising. We are even going to get a special mention on West FM tomorrow at 8:30am… keep your ears peeled.
Today we celebrated World Book Day and dressed as book characters or in our pyjamas.
Primary 6/7 arranged fun activities for the whole school to participate in. We completed word searches, bookmarks, first sentence quiz and listened to audio books.
On Thursday, we shared our writing across the whole school. We wrote instructions on how to make the most disgusting sandwich. We certainly put Mrs Connell off her lunch. We peer assessed in pairs, then groups, using the success criteria and sentence starters to leave feedback.
Following our fantastic visit to the Science Centre yesterday, we decided to have our own version in school.
We got to take part in lots of activities making straw oboes, colour mixing and seeing how long we could make a ping pong ball float.
Today we celebrated Halloween at Sorn. We saw some fantastic costumes and had a great time carving pumpkins and partying the afternoon away.
Happy Halloween!
Today we enjoyed a picnic style lunch. We took our blankets and lunch out to our lovely green space and enjoyed some tasty coronation cupcakes.
