30.10.20 Primary 5/6 Anti Bullying Assembly

Today Primary 5/6, alongside lots of other pupils and staff, took the pledge against bullying. We discussed what bullying is, how it can make us feel and identified who can help us. Most importantly, we shared how we can support each other to stand up to bullying.

Take the pledge with us as together we can put a stop to bullying, celebrate diversity and create communities of kindness.

2.10.20 Primary 5/6 Blue Cross Virtual Talk

Thank you to the Blue Cross for hosting a really informative virtual talk on safety around dogs today. We all learnt what we should and shouldn't do around dogs and what to do to keep ourselves safe.

As it is also Maths Week Scotland, we discussed animal welfare and researched the cost of owning a pet. Turns out it is much more expensive that we thought it would be!

Emotion works reflective writing.

Primary 5/6 used their knowledge of the emotion works 5 cog model to plan and write a piece of reflective writing this week.

We had many different triggers, positive and negative. At the end we underlined the text using the colours of the cogs.

P5/6 Growth Mindset Survey

Primary 5/6 watched a video on the difference between a 'growth mindset' and 'a fixed mindset'.

Pupils in Primary 5/6 last week listened to a 'Lockdown mix-tape' and shared feelings and memories that they were comfortable to share. We listened to the BBC news music, spoke about Joe Wicks the 'Nation's PE teacher' and thought back to the rainbows we drew and hung in our windows. Some of the emotion words we came up with are below the pictures above.
