Primary 6 – Screen Printing week 3!

Wow what a week! We were given a design challenge to create stain-glass window style art using the stencils that Bernie had ready for us. We could figure out they were letters but were not sure what we were going to spell…. after a lot of hard work (and mess!) we all peeled back the tape to find we had the letters to spell B O G H A L L. We carefully carried these outside and tied them to the fence, then stood back to look at what we had created! Thanks again Bernie, Fran, Patrick and Chris!

 

Primary 6 – Screen Printing Week 2!

Week 2 with Patrick, Chris, Fran and Bernie was excellent!

We looked at pictures of Street Art and discussed why some people call it Street Art while others say it is Graffiti – very interesting ideas and opinions! Bernie showed us some of his art that he creates using stencils which was very intricate and complicated to create. He also took us outside for a demonstration of how you layer the different stencils and colours to create an image – the picture he created he gifted to our class which is amazing! Next we created our own alphabet stencils and had fun experimenting with colour and shape as we layered our stencils on our own master pieces. Lastly we collaborated on a large class stencil which we will finish next week…. What a busy and fun filled day!

Screen Printing fun with Primary 6!

Primary 6 were lucky enough to be chosen to help Chris and Patrick with the design and creation of the our new church memorial garden – we don’t want to give away any secrets but we had such a fun morning screen printing with Patrick, Bernie, Fran and Chris that we had to share some of our photos! We will keep you updated with our progress each week!

Primary 6 Basketball Festival

Congratulations to the 4 teams who represented Boghall at Bathgate Academy on Tuesday. All of our teams played very competitively and we managed to win 1st and 2nd place medals! Mrs Williamson, Miss Potter and Mrs Monteith were very impressed with our sportsmanship and respect for the other schools there, despite some very difficult referee decisions. Well done Primary 6!

Challenge Friday p6/5, p6 and p7

Challenge Friday this week – we were given 10 minutes to look through an atlas but we had no idea what we had to look out for. Then we were given a map of Scotland and had to plot as many features of Scotland as we could – cities, towns, rivers, seas and islands. The winning group managed to successfully plot 19 points! Well done to Adam Colquhoun, Cooper MacDonald, Cameron Kelman and Destiny Nisbet.

Google Expedition visit with P6

P6 were lucky to be the first to have a visit from the Google Expedition team. We visited lots of different expeditions and had fun looking a Elephants, Giraffes, Sharks, Snakes, Volcanoes, Planets and Stars. We thought the best expeditions were the underwater ones. Sorry for being so loud (“THERE’S AN ELEPHANT!!”) but we had a lot of fun!! Thank you for visiting us Google!
