P6/7 Reflect on our Nurture Afternoon

Today, we spoke a lot about the benefits of our Nurture afternoon yesterday, when we spent time with members of our family and our staff watching a film. We discussed how us, our families and our school form a triangle and we’re always thinking of ways to help strengthen the bonds between all three parts of the triangle. We decided that the stronger these links are, the more successful learners we will become. Here are some quotes about what people in our class thought about yesterday:

“It really brought the school together and made everyone friendlier”

Macauley

“It brought our school community together”

Tiegan

“We learned about friendship”

Oliwier

“It gave us time to bond with our families”

Katie

“It showed us how similar we all are”

Coni

“It lets our families bond with our school and the staff”

Calvin

“It gave us time to relax and have fun with our families and our teachers”

Eilidh
