M&M Monday!

7 Comments

Today we had M&M Monday in Lochardil. We kicked off the day with M&Ms production of Pinocchio! Their use of popular songs in their show was fantastic, including songs from some of our favourites- Katy Perry and One Direction!

The underlying message from the production was:

– Don’t talk to strangers.
– Say NO! to bullying.

It was great to see all of the effort people went into when creating their biographies. Today we got to look over the biographies that others had made. When Mrs MacLeod is back, we will be choosing our 3rd, 2nd and 1st place winners for P6 and P7.

SONG CHANGE:
We will now be using the first minute of this song, instead of the ‘Singing in the Rain’ version we had at the start of Rock Challenge.

Say NO to BULLYING!

Another extremely busy day in the home of P6/7.

We finally begun reviewing our weather reports that we filmed at the end of the term. Our task was to peer assess each of the clips and write positive feedback, as well as decide on next steps. Some of us have still to finish this tomorrow. The weather reports are truly fantastic, and can be watched by clicking the link below. You will need the password which you were told today.

We also were fortunate enough to have players from Inverness Caley Thistle visit us, and talk to us about bullying. They shared some personal stories, and told us we should say NO to bullies, and walk away. We asked some sensible questions, but maybe would have benefitted from creating these before.

Say NO to Bullying!

Today’s theme across P6/7 was very much ANTI-BULLYING.

In P6 we looked at clips about verbal, physical and cyber bullying, as well as playing a bullying game. We learned that you have to STAND UP to bullies. The motto in one of the clips was: STOP-TALK-WALK

The P7s were at Inverness Caledonian Thistle Football stadium for the ‘Show Racism the Red Card’ event. This was an excellent event in which we got to do three different workshops, learning about the horrific and ILLEGAL act of bullying known as RACISM. We found out that Racism is when you treat someone differently due to their skin colour, culture, nationality or religion. This was a very exciting day as we got to meet some of the Caley players.!

HOMEWORK REMINDER:  POST your HERO on the blog, and complete your research for Wednesday.

Today we celebrated the 21st Birthday of our very own Mrs.Mac. Her face lit up in delight when she saw not one, but two cakes coming her way! 3 cheers- Hip Hip Hooray!

Today our theme in assembly was BULLYING. We were reminded that Lochardil is a BULLY FREE ZONE.

TOP TIPS

  • Let someone know if you feel you are being bullied. This can be a teacher, Head Teacher or someone at home.
  • DON’T BE A BYSTANDER. If you see someone getting bullied- Tell them to STOP, or speak to an adult.

Watch the video below on CYBER BULLYING.
