First Week Back

I am happy to be back to school because I have missed doing maths and lots of other things.   Abbie Snodgrass

The P7s have now started reading a book called ‘Goodnight Mister Tom’ by Michelle Magorian. It’s about a boy who’s been treated badly and been sent to live with an old man because of the bombs in England in World War 2. To find out more, look at the blog next week.        Heather MacNab

On the 10th January 2013, P6 and P7 received a visit from ChildLine who told us about the different forms of abuse, who to talk to about your feelings and much more. They showed us a powerpoint about your worries and concerns. We played a game called ‘the bag of worries’. Every time we thought of a worry, a brick would go into the bag. At the end, every time we found someone to talk to about our worries, a brick would come out of the bag. ChildLine told us not to try to hide a problem that you have and to tell someone about it. The number to call is 0800 1111. We got an activity book to do and we have workshops next week.This was an interesting visit and was very good.    John Skeldon and Erin Hook

January 28th is a very important date for P7 because they are going to Benmore. Benmore is a camp that makes P7s challenge themselves in outdoor activities that they would not do every day or even ever again. Everyone is looking forward to camp as it is a once in a lifetime chance. This week there was a meeting telling us all about camp at Benmore. It was very helpful and we know a lot more about it now.                                           Dylan Anderson and Deborah Hendry
