Drugs and Alcohol Awareness

PC Porter joined us today to help with our drugs and alcohol awareness.  We discussed legal and illegal drugs.

I know that there are medicines and some other substances that can be used in a safe way to improve health and I am becoming aware of how choices I make can affect my health and wellbeing.

I understand the effect that a range of substances including tobacco and alcohol can have on the body.

I know that popular culture, the media and peer groups as well as my own attitudes and values can influence how I feel about substance use and recognise the impact this may have on my actions.

I know that alcohol and drugs can affect people’s ability to make decisions.

I can identify the different kinds of risks associated with the use and misuse of a range of substances.

I understand the impact that misuse of substances can have on individuals, their families and friends.

Authors Live

Nursery and P1-4 enjoyed taking part in an Authors Live event today with author and illustrator Alex T Smith. Alex told us all about how his Grandpa inspired him to become a writer and about his love of drawing. He read us some of his new book ‘Claude goes for Gold’ and showed us step by step how to draw the character Claude. Our fantastic drawings will be on display in the corridor come and have a look!

“It was weird how he drew one bit of Claude then moved on to another and then went back. It was really cool”

“I found it hard to keep up he drew really fast! I was really happy with my finished drawing”

“It was good”

“It was fun!”

“It was fantastic. I liked the story and drawing the dog”
