World Book Day

We had our world book day on the 1st of March 2007. The theme was books from other countries or characters with a different nationality than our own. Lots of people came dressed up really well and it was really fun guessing what they were some of the costumes were Cowgirls, Aladdin, Zorro, Willy Wonka and Darth Vader. Mr Dickie came dressed as King Kong with the little doll and hairy feet but he didn’t actually have a suit. We wrote a story start on world book day. The primary 1-4 class  started it and then sent it to Colonsay. They sent it to Saint Kierens in Campeltown and then they sent it to Tayvallich and then it got sent back to the primary 5-7 in Kilchrenan and we finished it. The School Board are going to decide what the name should be out of the thoughts we came up with,  and which picture should be the front cover. The primary 4-7 class did banners to hang up in the class on one side it said the country and on the other side it said the country’s language.

Eco Schools and Healthy Schools

 We’ve got our wormery at school. We have about 200-300 worms and they lay cocoons every week with about 5 or 6 eggs. Wow!

We learned about Heart-Start.  A woman called Angela McNeil came in and she was very kind.  She came twice on two Wednesdays. The first Wednesday we used a telephone which linked to another one in a different room and we would talk to each other and pretend we were phoning an ambulance. That week was about accidents when the people are still conscious. The second week was about the recovery position and unconscious people.   We learned that you can be unconscious but you can still be breathing.

Tudors

We have been learning about the Tudor Kings and Queens and we have made a time line of when they were born when they died and when they came to the thrown. (Ahem!- “throne” : Mr D)

Maths Fest (14th Feb- Oban High School)

          

 On Wednesday, Jodi and I went to the maths fest at Oban High School.We went in a mini bus with pupils from Taynuit & Dalmally Primary. When we got there we had to look at a sheet to see what teams we were in. Jodi and I were with Calum and Rod (people  who used to go to our school). We did puzzles that were written down on paper and some that were on a table.We had lunch at the cafeteria

and were allowed to look around the school at break time.We enjoyed it very much and can’t wait for next years!!!

Our Creative Day (Feb 9th)

At the creative day every one had fun most of them liked the building vehicles from the future and because our topic was the future. The primary sevens organised it all very well and they put a lot of hard work into it and it was a really good day and everyone enjoyed it and we are sure that the school and the people from Ardconnel enjoyed it because there are only two people in their school and they probably don’t have lots of big activities. Everybody had a good time at our creative day.
