P5 Class Elections

Leave a reply

We have had lots of fun learning about the local elections and the voting process.  We split into 6 parties and created our own manifestos, went canvassing for votes, designed party logos and made rosettes, presented our proposals to other classes and carried out an anonymous vote!

Everyone participated extremely well and should be very proud of themselves!

Results are as follows:

  • Fidget Fan Pary
  • Useless Uniform Party
  • Homework Helps Party

The total number of void votes was 13.

Fidget Fans Party                                                 No Fidget Spinner Party (NFS)

Useless Uniform Party                                          Uniform United Party

Homework Hater Party                                       Homework Helps Party

Boghall netball team yesterday won the 3rd and final netball festival of the year yesterday at Simpsons Primary. They played superbly well and were a fantastic representation of the school. The team have played well all year and have won the previous 2 festivals. In addition to the the league trophy, they also won the Newland’s Day trophy. The team were extremely happy with their medals and are looking forward to taking part in the West Lothian netball festival later this month.

Primary 7 have been busy learning about body organs and their functions. This week we have been learning about the respiratory system and made models of the lungs. The balloon represents the lungs and the plastic bag represents the diaphragm. When you pull the plastic bag down, the balloon inflates – just like the lungs would. It was great fun!

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!

RRS AWARD FOR THE SECOND TIME!

Leave a reply

As you know, Boghall Primary was awarded a second Level 2 Rights Respecting School Award a few weeks ago.  This is a fantastic achievement as not only were we the first school in West Lothian to achieve the Advanced level 2  award back in 2011,  we are now the first school in West Lothian to be awarded level 2 for the SECOND time!  We were delighted to welcome back Tam Baillie (The Children’s Commissioner)  to our school to present us with the award.  Here are some of the official photographs that were taken on the day.
