Thanks to all the parents and carers who brought in bikes or items to push, for their children to participate. We had a huge range of wheeled items from strollers to wheelbarrows!
The three stations that the kids attended all offered different challenges. Lots of skills were tested! Many signs had to be read!
A big thank you Mrs Murtha and Graeme who set up the course and to Mr Holmes for running the day. You only had to look at the kids' faces to see what they thought of the experience.
We know that some books have a habit of playing hide and seek......
Often they hide so well no-one finds them for ages.
We have had as many as 21, 32, and 36 books sent back to us as a package, when students have finished primary school and parents have a really big clean up.
We are always delighted to see our books return back to our library-which belongs to all of our students!!!
As we will soon have a lovely new set up at S.B.P.S. with our new 21C library and three new 21C classrooms S.B.P.S. staff and students would love to ensure that all our resources are available and ready for action!!
Please have a really good hunt...play detectives for an hour or so in all the likely and unlikely hiding holes. Don't forget the car and the bottom of the lego box. You would be surprised where we have heard that books have found to hide in the past!!
Please make
by returning all books with a SBPS barcode on them!

I am encouraging year 6 students to use a number of different presentation tools to present their portfolio. One tool is Prezi.
Definition from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
"Prezi is a web-based presentation application and storytelling tool that uses a single canvas instead of traditional slides. Text, images, videos and other presentation objects are placed on the infinite canvas and grouped together in frames."
Here is a Prezi about Mrs Lofton -a TL I met on twitter.
The Prezi demonstrates a very simple autobiographical outline of her life.
Year 6 students are being encouraged to search for copies of photos, awards, school work or any special reminders of their past years at primary school.
They need to use digital copies for their work. Digital copies can be created at home, if it is possible. Copies can be emailed to the student or can be transferred via a thumb dive-(memory stick)
Year 6 students can bring their hard copies to school if the necessary equipment and know-how is not available at home to transform them into digital format.
I am happy to help students with this process before school each day and at lunch times as there is not enough time in their library lesson to help all students at once.
