Safe Strong and Free - Workshop 3
Following on from our previous sessions looking at bullying, why it happens and what we can do to stop it. Safe Strong and Free worked in partnership with the African Caribbean Asian and mixed Heritage Association to tackle the topic of racism.
We had the most amazing open discussions with lots of excellent questions. We looked at discrimination against culture, heritage and tradition.
Then we learnt about how we look different by our different skin types, and it is okay to ask people what they want to be referred to, eg black, white, black/brown. As this is only words to describe someone's skin type.
We can't wait for our next session on 1st December, when we will have an active workshop joining in with different cultures music and dance.
Children In Need
P7's first charity fundraiser raised £230 for such a worthwhile cause. They sold biscuits at break time and entertained the whole school at lunchtime in the hall with lots of fun games - Beat the Goalie, Just Dance, Duck Duck Goose, Whats the Time Mr Wolf and Cross the Bridge. Well done everyone!!
Running My Own Fundraising Business
We are learning how to set up and run our own business to fundraise for the school.
We learnt that to start a successful fundraising business, we need a good idea first! After that we need a business plan to put forward to Mrs Gorman.
Class Trip to the Newton Rooms
'Robotics and Mathematics'
On Wednesday we spent the day using our STEM skills to solve problems. We used our knowledge of what we have learnt in class about circumference and perimeter and applied it to the tasks. We developed our programming ability with the robots.
Also, they had lots of fun getting on the bus with their friends and enjoying a day out the classroom together.
Welcome back to term 2 of Primary 7
We started off this term with our first P7 fundraiser, the Pumpkin carving competition and selling costumes donated by Tesco. We were delighted to raise £106 which will go towards our school trip and year books.
In PE we have started this term off with a four week block of Badminton. We have already become very good at doing rallies and working hard on serving. Next week, we will start learning how to record points in a match.
