Fantastic effort from Cullivoe Primary School

Leave a comment

Wow, what a day we have had at the Cullivoe Primary School!

Ruby and Poppy were in charge of taking note of how long we danced for each song and counted this up to give us a total of 77 minutes and 48 seconds danced through the course of the day!

We raised £45 from selling badges and £351 from people sponsoring us to do our Just Dance which brings our total to £396 which Miss Nicholson then rounded up to £400!

We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone that sponsored us, all the pupils and staff for their enthusiasm when dancing and giving it their all and a big thank you to primary 7 who organised this all!

£400 will be on its way to Children In Need thanks to everyone at the Cullivoe Primary School!

Children in Need

Today we are raising money for Children In Need by doing a sponsored Just Dance. We have cleared the classroom and are ready to go when the whistle blows. (This is when we all have to stop what we are working on and go into the downstairs classroom and keep dancing until the second whistle blows, then we have to return back to our work)

Primary 7 have organsied everything. They have made a list of songs they want to dance to so Miss Nicholson has loaded them on the laptop so we just have to press play. They have also sorted everyone into groups so after music we will all have different stations to move around:

  • Beth’s group is going to be colouring in/wordsearch.
  • Jasmine is going to be reading stories about children in need
  • Tali is going to talk about where our money goes
  • Amanda is going to be doing a warm up

They have also ordered pudsey padges and are selling them for £1.

We will keep you posted on how the day is going and how much we raise!!

P7 Transition

Leave a comment

Today the primary 7s from Burravoe and Mid Yell came up to Cullivoe for our first transition day. First we got put into groups and we had the chance to get to know each other. We had to think of a group name and a chant. After break we had to complete a ‘who’s who’ activity and match up pictures of all the Mid Yell staff with their name and job title. We then learned more about Yammer and how we can use this to communicae throughout this project. The main reason for today was to start off our project which is organising a trip for our class. In our groups we have to work out where we want to go, how much it will cost, what we are doing, where we will stay, food and how we will get there. We have all come up with a rough idea and are really excited to discuss this more and plan it. We all had a fantastic day and worked really well together. We are looking forward to our next transition day in Mid Yell in the few weeks.

Primary 7 fundraiser for CLAN

Leave a comment

Me and the rest of the Primary 7s of Cullivoe primary school raised money for the clan cancer support group over the Christmas season. We had to decided on a wall display and the winner was a Christmas tree. We took time on creating the tree.The other members of the school and teachers paid 20p each to write a Christmas message in the shape of either a bauble or a Christmas present to someone rather then giving them all a Christmas card.

We raised £26.50 from the Christmas tree wall display so it was a big success! And to top that off our Christmas show kindly donated £273.50 so altogether we are putting £300 towards helping people surviving with cancer in the northern part of Scotland.
