Today P7 welcomed Fiona Shaw who is a Development Officer for Education Scotland. Her role is to work with schools to ensure everyone has equality of opportunity, particularly with careers and subject choice. We engaged with a variety of tasks which raised our awareness of stereotypes . There was a lot of thought provoking conversations which really made us all think about unconscious bias. Many thanks to Fiona for joining us.
Yesterday, we did a litter pick around Mansfield Park. We wanted to do this because we have seen East Calder and how much plastic and litter there is, so we wanted to help we also wanted people to see us and think that they should probably stop dropping litter if these primary school children are picking it up . 13 children and their parents/carers joined in to help us clear East Calder. We started small at Mansfield Park and we collected lots of litter mostly, glass, crisp packets, straws and lots more. If you joined in thank you for helping us with doing this picking lots of litter up.
