As a school we recently consulted on what our community think our core values should be. Our core values are the fundamental beliefs of our school and are the guiding principles that dictate our behaviours.

Please take a few minutes to complete the questionnaire which will help us determine our school values.

The questionnaire will close on 13th March 2020.

Primary 6 – Safer Internet Week

What were we learning?
* To explore the term ‘online identity’ and what it means for us.

How would we know if we were successful?
* We would be able to discuss our own online identities and consider how we are presenting ourselves online.
* Discuss the term ‘online freedom’ and say how we use this.

What did we do?
* We created an online identity wheel to think about how we present ourselves online (in terms of usernames, profile pictures, avatars).
* We explored scenarios where ‘online freedom’ had been appropriately/inappropriately used.
* We considered how we express ourselves online and if there is anything we can do to be ‘free online’, but still keep ourselves safe.

Check in with us next time to see what else we have been learning!

Until then…
Primary 6 & Miss M 🙂

Breich received the most house points for term 2 and decided on a Pyjama Party as their house treat. Everyone dressed up in their pjs or onesies and the Primary 7s had organised lots of game like corners and sleeping lions.
