We thought you might be interested to find out a bit more about it.
Our Primary 3 class are participating in it.

Rights Respecting Schools Award (RSSA) Steering Group
Another successful meeting today for the RSSA group.
As part of it we would like to inform everyone about our group and our first task of aiming to achieve the Recognition of Commitment (ROC).
Here we are at work today.
A Snapshot of This Week’s Learning
Primary 1/2
P1/2 have been learning how to write sums quickly and have spent lots of time finding out facts about the sun and the moon.
Primary 2/3
P2/3 have been learning about place value in Maths, using hundreds, tens and units. They have also investigated the 7 new planets and even named them!
Primary 3/4
P3/4 have started to learn all about division. They have also learned how to write a newspaper report. They wrote about The Titanic.
Primary 4/5
In cook school, P4/5 have learned how to make Chinese Ginger Chicken and noodles. Evan S said it tasted amazing! Even though he doesn’t like soy sauce, he tried it. Well done!
Primary 5/6
In Grammar, P5/6 have been trying to improve their knowledge and understanding. In Maths, they have been working really hard on equivalent fractions.
Primary 6/7
P6/7 had the opportunity to talk to lots of different people in the community about their career as they attended the first part of this year’s Schools Conference. Their answers and pieces of advice really made everyone think about what their future career might be. In Numeracy, lots of hard work has taken place on equivalent fractions. Some number talks were fitted in as well! In Literacy, preparations are well under way for World Book Day, as everyone created a book for their buddy in P1.
Nurture is fun!

I hope this is of some interest to you and help to you.

VOTE FOR THE BEST – VOTE FOR BLES – PLEA FOR YOUR VOTE!
We have registered BLES Training with Galaxyhotchocolate.com where if we receive enough votes could win £300. As you know we never do things just for ourselves. If we were successful, we were asked what we would do with the money and how it would benefit the community.
We have collectively agreed, if successful we would make a bench that would be made by our young people at BLES then donated within the community focusing on the elderly which would bring together the different generations.
Through email, facebook and twitter we are asking you to share the link below with as many of your friends, family and work colleagues and ask them to vote for BLES Training
