Primary 7 Camp-Day 1

Mrs Harrison

Dear Primary 7 families,

We arrived safely in Lagganlia at lunch time today after a smooth journey with beautiful scenery.

This afternoon, we met the instructors and explored the campus. We made our beds and began to settle in.

This evening, we shared a meal in the girls lodge around the big table and ordered our breakfast and lunch for tomorrow. To further help us get to know the campus, we are embarking on a night time Scatter Hunt. (A little like a treasure hunt relating to finding information about key landmarks or features). After this, we are going to have some quiet time and an early night so we have plenty of energy for the week to come (Mrs H, Mrs F and Mr B are fervently crossing their fingers for the early night!).

Safer Internet Day

Miss Copeland

Yesterday was Safer Internet Day and the pupil participation group Internet Empire explored their knowledge of internet safety. All pupils should have knowledge of how to stay safe online for example, what to do if they encounter inappropriate content, how to keep personal details safe, using passwords to protect their information and cyberbullying.

In the session we used a special interactive questionnaire called ‘Mentimeter’ – Pupils were in groups of 3 and shared an iPad to answer the questions below which created this document. This will also be shared with staff to improve our quality learning and teaching

Holiday Home Learning

We asked what activities they would set to practise or show their knowledge of internet safety and this is what they came up with! Miss Bruner and Miss Copeland would be delighted to hear if anyone completes one of the tasks below to share their knowledge of safe internet use.

Games to learn more about online safety 

Interland – Children aged 8 – 12. A new game made by Google – covering cyberbullying, phishing, data protection through mini-games and quizzes. Very cool!

Jessie and Friends – A favourite of Miss Copeland, this includes easy to watch videos and songs, perfect for ages 4 to 7.

Band Runner – Also by Think U Know, this is designed for children aged 8-10.

Cloud Quest – An interactive adventure website with videos and activities for children under 10 (American website)

January in Primary 7 and our Sharing Learning Assembly

Mrs Harrison

Dear Primary 7 families,

It’s been a busy start to the new year in Primary 7. Today in Assembly, we shared our learning with the school and we thought you might like to see the copy of the slides that we wrote for it. See the PDF below!

On the 24th of January, we went to the Risk Factory, where we experienced (safely of course) a range of dangerous scenarios and identified what to do to and how to avoid putting ourselves in risky situations.

We hope you have enjoyed reading about our learning. We wrote the slides ourselves!
