We are all having a great time! We have been doing loads of activities like - mountain biking, snow boarding, gorge walking, mountain adventure and rope course. The food is great, especially the dessert like sticky toffee pudding. The dorms are good everyone loves having showers.

We have just been at circus skills, we were juggling, using devils sticks and spinning plates. We are missing you and cant wait to see you.

Anti Bullying Competition Work October 7, 2008

Posted by Miss Collins in : P4, P6, Uncategorized , 1 comment so far

Today saw the start of a beautiful friendship between P4b and P6b! Our classes came together to start work on the theme of bullying.

National Anti-Bullying Week 2008 is 17 - 23 November, and the website respectme and the Scottish Government have joined forces to launch an anti-bullying competition, based around the theme, ‘what bullying means to me’.

The children from P4 and P6 have started working on entries for this competition today. Each P4 is working with a P6 partner, and we started by sharing ideas about what forms bullying can take. The poster that the P6s designed last year came in really handy as it gave us the categories of Physical, Verbal, Emotional and Cyberbullying. We also discussed how these types of bullying make a person feel inside. This helped us to brainstorm ideas for what bullying means to us, and then how we can show that in a poster for the competition.

In Campie this year we are all working on our listening skills, as you will have seen from the wonderful leaflets that the children designed and sent home. The whole school is involved and will be learning to listen in different ways all year.

For example, P6b have been focusing on listening to people in conversation. We came up with guidelines for good listening in conversations and practiced them in talking partners.
