PREPARING FOR THE PARALYMPICS!!!

Primary 3.1 used their experience of the Rio Olympics and Paralympics as a stimulus to create a collage. They were also being Eco friendly by using recycled paint and old containers.

They made silhouette paintings of a variety of sports from both the Olympics and Paralympics. Can you guess each sport?

Life Savers in P2! HEARTSTART

We have been learning what to do

in emergency situations,

who to ask for help

and what we can do to save lives.

 

SDC11903Finlay  and Katie from P5 demonstrated what to say and do if someone is unconscious. SDC11906Emma and Niamh from P5 showed us how to put someone in the recovery position.
SDC11910Call 999 for an emergency. SDC11908Sarah and Kenzie worked in a pair to practise putting a person into the recovery position.
SDC11909Lucy checked for danger before approaching Oliver to offer her help. SDC11907Sarah shouted for help. She gently shaked the casualty to check if he was conscious. Next she checked for signs of normal breathing.
SDC11904Finlay gave very clear instructions on the steps to follow.

SDC11905
P5 and P2 worked together to share learning and possibly save a life one day. A most important lesson!

Community Links…Local Area Learning

We visited a local farm to learn more
about what land is used for in our area.
We developed our knowledge of how
to care for animals and where food
comes from.

Working Together To Get The Job Done!

Primary 2 are learning to make choices to further develop our own skills.  We choose from a range of learning opportunities.  Sometimes we work in pairs, in groups or with an adult. We all take responsibility for keeping our classroom and resources tidy.
