Happy Campers
Camp Update 2 at 14.20 a.m.
Hi All,
Everyone at camp has been fed and watered and our staff reported that there was plenty of variety and choice for all.
The whole group has now been split into their 4 activity groups and were just heading off to take part in their first outdoor activity.
The afternoon activities include Zip Wire, Trapeze and Motorsports. The groups will have a chance to take part in 2 activities this afternoon before heading off to dinner.
Each group has a member of staff with them…poor Mrs Stewart is gutted as she has been told she’s too old for the quad bikes!!!
P.S. I have been sent a photograph but can’t get it to upload yet – I’m working on fixing this but will pop a copy onto the parent noticeboard outside the school.

Dalguise Happy Campers!
We are happy to report that our campers have all arrived safe and well at Dalguise.
The group are currently having a quick meeting and welcome session with the Dalguise staff and going over some of the basic rules, fire procedures etc. They will be heading for their lunch at 12.15 and then will be getting stuck into their afternoon activities.
We will try to keep you updated as news come in from our staff. Photographs to follow once the children get settled and have their lunch. Thanks to all our parents for their support and patience this morning.

Another fabulous week in P7
P7 have been doing our class charter that is jungle themed. We have been drawing round our hands this to show that we are all unique and beautiful,but together we are a masterpiece.
Every afternoon we have been doing our table challenge, what we do is a numeracy question, health question and a literacy question in our table groups.
The whole class together love the table challenges as it is fun and good for our learning. It is also good for encouragement and working well using teamwork.
Hope you enjoyed this weeks post!!

Calling ALL Actors and Actresses!
ROLL UP, ROLL UP
It’s show season once again…
So we need enthusiastic and committed actors and actresses to be part of Murrayfield’s spectacular show this year!
This year’s show will be unveiled and auditions will be held during the first week back to school…
You could use this week to begin to think about an audition piece which is no longer than one minute in length. It could be a song or a poem, or just a piece of dialogue from a film/show.
We are very excited to see your talent so watch this space and you could be ‘treading the boards’ as a leading woman/man in May…
From,
Miss Gibson, Mrs Mackie and Mrs Logan
Math Skills with Bathgate Academy
As part of our transition to high school some children in P7 and P6 have been meeting through Glow to practice their number skills.
We used whiteboards to solve problems and then show them to Mrs McGregor using the webcam.
This time we were developing our understanding of Roman Numerals and completed a follow up sheet in the classroom.
‘I thought it was really fun doing Roman Numerals because we have never done that before’ Sherelle
‘I learnt how to change numbers into Roman Numerals’ Abi
If you would like to practice any more number work please use this link: http://www.bathgateacademy.org.uk/
It will take you to the ‘Puzzle of the Month’ in the maths faculty area.
