Kilbowie Day 2 am – Gorge Walking

Gorge Walking with Group 5 and Kenny

My first activity today was gorge walking with group 5. The children in this group were really well behaved and all of them really enjoyed this activity. We travelled on a bus for about half an hour to get to the gorge with our wet suits, waterproof suits and helmets on. We walked up the gorge together working as a team to help each other get past the tricky parts.

When we reached the top of the gorge, the water wasn’t deep enough to jump in so we climbed up on to a big rock and had to slide into the water. It was FREEZING and gave me a bit of a fright. Some of the children were a bit nervous but I was so proud when they decided to give it a go. It was superb!!!

 

 

I hope you enjoy the pictures!!!

Hi Primary 5

I hope you have had a brilliant day today. I have had a very exciting and exhausting day!!

On the journey to Kilbowie we stopped off at ‘The Green Welly’ to stretch our legs. What a super name and logo!

During the journey we passed by some breathtaking scenery. I noticed that on lots of the signs it said

failte’ gu – Does anyone know what this means?

We took part in a fantstic activity called ‘night line’. We were blindfolded and had to put our trust in each other in order to navigate around a course. It was really tricky (Miss Tierney and I took ages – but we were very proud that we finished!).

We were so dirty after our night line adventure that we had to be hosed down! After our hosing down I realised that my wellies were firmly stuck on my feet. Luckily Courtney helped me to prise them off!!

Stuck to my boots!!!!

Tomorrow I will be going gorge walking and ski-ing. I will post an update to let you know how things are going and post some more pictures of our Kilbowie adventures.

Hi my Brilliant Bloggers

I am just about to go and get my bag packed for Kilbowie. Hopefully I won’t forget anything important!!! I am looking forward to taking part in all of the different activities with the P7’s and Miss Tierney. I think we are going to have lots of fun. The thing I would like to try the most during my week at Kilbowie is the ski slopes. I have never tried this before and I think it will be quite challenging but I can’t wait to have a go.

I am hoping that we get some mild weather as I am not planning on packing wellies!!!!

I hope that you have a fun week with Mrs O’Hanlon.

Don’t forget –

*to keep our blog up and running

*to continue the walk around Scotland challenge

*to continue the fruity fortninght rewards (collect all of the cards on Friday and we will carry out the draw on Monday when I return)

*enjoy the design a meal – remember to use the flip camera to document this

but most of all remember to behave really well and

HAVE FUN!!!

Attention P5 Paparazzi

Calling all budding photographers in primary 5 !!!

Would you like to see your photographs featured on glow?

There is a competition on at the moment to find fantastic photographs to feature on the glow light home page. Can you imagine signing into glow and seeing your photograph featured for everyone across Scotland  to see?

Well get your cameras out and get snapping as the competition will close on 20th May.

There are a few things that you must take into consideration when selecting a photograph for entry

Think about where the buttons on the glow light home page are and how these would affect your photograph.

Think about the placement of the glow icon. Would this cover an important part of the image?

Below is the post taken from the competition page in glow. For more details click here

This competition invites pupils of all ages to submit up to three photographs for possible publication on the front page of glow.

The choice of subject is completely open. Your photograph could capture a local view or event, your own schoolwork, a landscape or scene from nature. Digitally enhanced images will be accepted.

Synagogue

Primary 5 went to  the Synagogue yesterday and we learned that there are no

pictures of people in the Synagogue. We also  learned about the Menorah lamp.

and we learned that boys from the age of 13 have a bar mitspha and they

become a man.

If one of the scrolls has a mistake they have  to stop the service and go and get another scroll. A scribe handwrites the scrolls and it takes a whole year to write.
