Health Week Day 3

Today was busy, busy!

We made comments for our Friendship Tree – saying kind words about somebody we wouldn’t generally say something nice to.

Next we went over to the hall and Miss Dingwall showed us how to play Indoor Curling. We had a great time and some of us would haveĀ  played longer.

This was then followed by orienteering in the playground with Mrs Lynne. The children in pairs managed this very well and after initially finding it a little tricky, they had it mastered. Mrs Lynne kindly provided Hot Chocolate to keep us warm, as the snow was beginning to fall a little harder.

In the afternoon, after music practice, we played Whole School Dodgeball. Well done to Ardoch who won, but a big well done has to go to Alexander Bickerton who was standing alone in his team,

which seemed an eternity, avoiding all the balls.

Health Week Day 2

Today we started with a whole school walk around the Castle Drive. Even though there were snow flurries, off we went! On route Jim Dawson, a local farmer, Ā kindly let us see his newborn lambs in his farm.

After lunch we had a super time learning about SARDA. Mr Gaskell told us all about mountain rescue and the work of his dogs. We even had a demonstration, where the rescue dog had to find Mrs Gaskell.
