PC Walker: Up, Down, Spinning Around April 29, 2008
Posted by Law Upper in : P7, visits , 2commentsOn Monday 28th, PC Walker came to visit us in our P7 classes. He helped raise our awareness about drugs and their effects on our lives. We learned that many substances are drugs including prescription medicines, alcohol, tobacco and caffeine (in your tea, coffee and cola!). PC Walker also informed us about illegal substances and about whether drugs are depressants, stimulants or hallucinogenics. We will be following up on this work in class over the next few weeks ahead of our visit to Choices for Life in Edinburgh on Wed. May 21st.

Mrs Bolt back from India April 24, 2008
Posted by Law Upper in : P7, visits , 1 comment so farMrs Bolt has just arrived back from India in an unusual traditional Indian dress. She was fascinated with the traditional clothes that they wore to weddings. She found it glorious and she couldn’t stop talking about the beautiful silk dresses. The thing that she disliked most about India was the sewage problems, the sewers were all open over the street. She also had a job in an all girls orphanage and just played games and had fun with them. She found it unbelievable how little they had and felt so sorry for the conditions that some people have to live in! She goes back next week and we wish her the best of luck.
