Primary 1 and 2…Walking and Exploring

Primary 1 and 2 have been out everyday as part of our Active School initiative…Walk to Rio! We also now have Beat the Street to take part in as well. If you see us out and about the village give us a wave. We are enjoying exploring our local environment.

 

Gardening Club

Today was our first day at Gardening Club!  The boys and girls spoke about what they would like to learn over the next few weeks. We then went outside and took some weeds out of our outdoor area outside the playroom. We found some worms and we were so excited!  We can’t wait until next week 🙂

Beat the Street is a real life walking, cycling and running game for a whole community. Beat the Street is being delivered on behalf of the National Charity Partnership – a collaboration between Diabetes UK, the British Heart Foundation (BHF) and Tesco.   The competition will run in North Lanarkshire from 20 April – 01 June 2016.   People score points and win prizes by walking, cycling or running from point to point and tapping a registered and activated Beat the Street RFID (Radio Frequency ID) card or Fob on sensors (Beat Boxes) which are placed on lamp posts across the dedicated routes where the game is being played.   A player taps their Beat the Street card or fob at various points on their way to and from work, school and to the shops.   Registered players can win regular spot prizes for a ‘lucky tap’ on a Beat Box. To be eligible to win a prize, players must be registered.   The more Beat Boxes you tap, the further you travel and the greater your chance of winning a prize.   Players can also join teams by choosing from the list on the registration page.   There are lots of prizes up for grabs for individuals and teams taking part in Beat the Street.Weekly lucky tap prizes include £25 Decathlon vouchers.

Leaderboards-   We have 2 leaderboards: Total Points & Average Points.

For each of these leaderboards there will be 3 cascading prizes as follows:

• 1st place £1000 of Decathlon vouchers
• 2nd place £500 of Decathlon vouchers
• 3rd place £250 of Decathlon vouchers

Earth Day 2016

As an Eco school we do as much as we can to promote a sustainable environment. Today we celebrated Earth day in our classrooms. We researched the history of Earth day and some classes took part in art activities.

Learning about Road Safety in Primary 1

This term through Health ans Wellbeing we are learning all about looking after ourselves and protecting ourselves from harm. We used the Ziggy story to help us learn about crossing the road safely. We went outside to take turns at being the Lollipop officer and crossed the road correctly. We drew traffic lights, cars and roads on the ground and drew our very own Lollipop Lady! We had great fun learning all about it!
