What a fantastic morning we had with Sean from Holding History. Holding History provides interactive World Around Us and history sessions. Our talk today was centred around original artefacts from the Viking period, and included a vast array of deactivated weapons, ordnance, equipment and documents. The boys and girls loved having the opportunity to handle these objects and dressing up ready for battle in chain mail!
The "31" in International Day of Play represents Article 31 of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, which states that every child has the fundamental human right to play!
iSmart is an interactive presentation that took P5 on a journey through the digital world and aims to help them to make smart and safe choices online.
The presentation encouraged pupils to use and develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills to navigate tricky situations that they may come across online. It also helped them develop language so they can describe how they operate in the online world. Pupils were encouraged to reflect on how digital platforms affect the rest of the world and to consider how they can make this impact a positive one in their lives.
