Today we have had a fantastic day in the Glasgow Science Centre. There were lots of experiments and we watched a bodyworks show! There was even a cream cracker eating competition!
We enjoyed a lovely meal in Mr Basrai’s and then headed to bowling! It was quite competitive!
We have had a superb first day on the P7 Edinburgh trip. A sunny day in Blairdrummond was topped off with a delicious tea at the Toby Carvery (with ice-cream). We ended the evening with puzzles and illusions at Camera Obscura!
Some of our P7s recently applied to the South Shetland Community councils for funding to support some of our pupils on our Edinburgh trip. Unfortunately we were unsuccessful in our bid but our P7 pupils made us very proud. They were passionate and articulate as they tried to convince members of the South Shetland community in the Cunningsburgh Hall that our cause was worth voting for. They showed leadership and determination and were graceful in defeat. Very well done!
Last term, parents/carers joined their children as part of our ‘My Learning Journey’, a learner led event. Learners invited their parents/carers into the school and were able to share their learning. Pupils talked with their parents/carers about their learning and shared some of their work, as well as showing them around different areas of the school and introducing their teachers.
Our canteen staff served taster school meals for family members to try. There were also partner agencies sharing information on health and wellbeing with parents/carers in the school gym hall. This event was very well attended and recieved very positive feedback from parents/carers and pupils who attended.
Primary 6 have been learning about Victorian times. They worked with Izzy Swamson to put on a production of The Little Match Girl which is set in Victorian times. They sourced and sold Victorian sweets as part of the experience. As well as acting, they painted scenery and made costumes for this show. Very well done to all involved.
Primary 4 and Primary 6 were very lucky to have the opportunity to visit the Gilbertson Park Games Hall last week to view the Sea Mammal Exhibition by Andy Peters. This has been organised by the Hillswick Wildlife Sanctuary and it focussed on the marine environment, it’s wildlife and the challenges it faces. Pupils participated in hands on activities which raised awareness and generated respect for our seas.
