Lockerbie Manor Day 1

Posted on by

Our first stop today was Wiston Lodge where we enjoyed Jacob’s Ladder and High Vines. We were given an inspirational talk about bravery and persistence, two skills which were essential during these activities. We then made our way to Lockerbie Manor and were given our welcome and safety talks. We enjoyed Wide Games on the lawn (on Friday we will now do Scavenger Hunt and Low Ropes so there has been slight changes to the timetable) where we completed various team exercises. We enjoyed dinner of Steak Pie, Bacon Chop or Vegetable Jambalaya. Group 6 then did the Blind Trail. As they were blindfolded they relied heavily on their other senses and communication from their teammates. Group 5 did video making. They were given an object and had to adapt and sell this and make a movie. We ended the day singing Happy Birthday to a special boy! Overall, a great day has been had by all. Roll on day 2!

P4/5 Netball skills

Posted on by

The children in Primary 4/5 continue to develop their netball skills.  Last term they were learning some ball skills such as passing in a variety of ways, defending and movement.  Today we continued to develop our ball skills by shooting into the net and using the skills we learned in small games.  We will learn about the different positions in netball and continue to develop our skills.

Again the teamwork and sportsmanship was really good!

P4/5 Litter Control Rapping and Poetry

Posted on by

Already back into the swing of it after their holiday.  Primary 4/5 in small groups created raps and poems to educate people about the importance of litter control.  These were very impressive and so hopefully if you visit the school you may see some of these displayed.  The children really enjoyed performing these raps and poems to the rest of the class. Super teamwork too!
