Fairtrade

P1 and P4/3 joined together  to organise a very successful stall at the Christmas Fayre.  Both classes worked hard to collect Fairtrade items for the tombola and the children helped to organise and run the stall.  It was very busy and the prizes went very quickly.  Well done to all that helped and thanks to those who came along to buy tombola tickets.

Christmas fun!

Primary 1 had lots of fun at their Christmas party. They had a few special visitors including a surprise visit from Mickey and Minnie! Everyone looked wonderful in their party outfits and there were lots of super dance moves! They were so excited when Santa turned up and gave everyone a present.

Primary 1 loved taking part in the McTivity, a Scottish version of the Nativity story.  They all did a fabulous job and looked very cute on the stage.  The show was a great success and we received lots of positive feedback. Thanks to all who supported us and came along.

Getting It Right For Every Child

Getting it right for every child is a Scottish Government led approach which ensures that any organisation working with children and young people provides an environment where they can grow and develop to reach their full potential. Getting it right for every child is core to our visions and values here at Boghall Primary school.

People who help us by p1

For the last few weeks, primary 1 have been visited by a number of people talking about their jobs. First we met Mrs Hepburn who is a dental nurse and she told us all about how to look after our teeth and what her job involves. It was so interesting!IMG_3233 Mrs HepburnThe week after we had a visit from Chloe’s mum who is a paramedic. She and another paramedic showed us all the different tools they use, took some of our heart beats and let us try on some of their outfits. They even brought in an ambulance! It was so much fun and we found out loads!

We were then lucky enough to have a visit from Oliver’s dad who is a policeman. He came in and told us about his job as part of the traffic police. It was amazing to hear about what he does and see the flashing lights on the car! IMG_3329

Last week we had a visit from Ethan’s mum who is a radiographer. It was so cool to see all the bones on some of the x-rays she brought along! It is so clever that a big camera can see through your skin and into your bones! We learned we have 206 bones in our body! WOW!

 

Thank you all so much for giving us some of your time! We really appreciate it! From P1a and p1b.

Primary 1 have been busy learning about Scotland. On Monday, we got to taste shortbread, oatcakes, cheddar cheese, Tunnock’s caramel wafer, Irn Bru and Mackies haggis crisps! I think the majority of us liked Irn Bru and caramel wafers the best!!

Rights Respecting Work

As part of our continuing work as a level two Rights Respecting School, our two pupil assessors spoke to the whole school.  This term all pupils are being asked their opinions on new charters for the dinner hall and playground.   Dinner hall and playground staff will also be consulted about these charters as it is important that we all agree on what we should do to help keep everyone happy, healthy and safe.

The photographs show some primary 6 and 7 pupils working together to decide on relevant articles for the playground charter and our pupil assessors speaking at assembly.
