1st Star – We had another successful show practice on Thursday and hope it continues.
2nd Star – We enjoyed cooking apple crumble on Wednesday. We have been learning about rationing during WW2 and how many people had their own allotments to grow their own fruit and vegetables.
Wish – To practise the school show scenes on the stage.
1st star – We loved Philosophy! We all sat in a circle and discussed our opinions on the following questions – ‘Can you pay for a bunch of bananas with a bunch of bananas?’ , ‘If you paint over a window, is it still a window?’ and ‘Are you any less alive when you’re asleep?’. It was very interesting listening to everyone’s opinions!
2nd star – We all got a headteacher award for having a great start to the school show! We managed to sing 3 songs and practised 6 scenes!
wish – to go out for mile a day more often!
Primary 7/6 have been developing their Map skills by locating different features of Scotland, UK and the wider world on a map. They had to draw symbols of key features such as mountain ranges, capital cities, rivers and highest peaks from around the world. They then had to try and name different capital cities. This will help them to identify the countries involved in the Second World War. Here are a few photos of them in action…
As part of challenge Friday, P5,6,7 had to play a game of Chinese whispers. They had to work in teams of 4/5 to draw a Halloween themed picture. Only one person in the group was given the original image and they had to pass on their instructions by whispering to each team member with one person drawing. It was a real challenge!
Most of Primary 7/6 were set a homework task of Creative Captain for their reading novels this week.
The effort by all was outstanding! Here are some examples of the models that were made…
1st Star – Performing on front of each other and listening to everyone sing. We are a talented bunch!
2nd Star – Reading each other’s Space Projects and finding out what other people had to say about our own project!
Wish – To find out what the school show is going to be on this year!
Primary 7/6 have been busy learning all about Space. As part of this Science focus, they were set a homework challenge to research different facts about an aspect of Space that interested them the most.
The projects had to follow a Success Criteria. This was:
Today we shared our projects and gave feedback on each others. They were amazing! Well done for such fantastic effort P 7/6! 🙂
Thank you to everyone who was involved in our coffee morning for MacMillan Cancer Support on Friday. It was a massive success! There were lots of yummy cakes, biscuits and pancakes, with a nice cup of hot coffee or tea to wash them down!
Also, thank you to everyone who donated delicious home-baking. The effort was outstanding and very much appreciated. Thank you to those who donated large cakes that were raffled off and went to lucky winners – Mrs Ireland, Graeme Totten and Robin Bremner’s Grandma.
These events wouldn’t be possible without the help of the brilliant Pupil Council and parent helpers. Thank you for all your help!
The children in the classes also thoroughly enjoyed tasting yummy shortbread and deciding if it was ‘faked’ or ‘baked’.
Tomorrow, there will be a coffee morning at Boghall Primary School for pupils, parents and members of the community. The coffee morning will take place in the school hall from 10.15am until 12pm. The coffee morning will take place to raise money for MacMillan Cancer Support.
There will be a selection of cakes for sale, home baking, tea, coffee and juice ranging from 10p to £1.
There will also be games such as ‘Spot the Cake’ for 20p a guess. A ‘baked or faked’ game will also be played in every classroom for the pupils and is 50p a go. In this game, you will be blindfolded and you have to taste a bit of cake and decide if it was baked or faked. Faked meaning that it was bought in a shop!
Hope to see you there!
1st Star – P5’s Internet Safety assembly was great and very interesting!
2nd Star – Learning about the Earth, Moon and Sun and creating our posters
Wish – We wish Mrs Barr all the best for the future! We will miss her very much!
