Sciennes Red Nose Day P4-7 Assembly 24.3.17
On Friday 24th March 2017 Sciennes celebrated Red Nose Day with a whole school Comedy Festival, designed to develop confidence in public speaking and as part of our Health and Wellbeing programme, in support of Comic Relief. We watched a film about 12 year old Hassan from Sierra Leone and found out how Comic Relief has supported him return to school following the Ebola crisis.
Generous donations and support for P6 led bake sales, friendship bracelet, bath bombs and keyring sales as well as P7 Comedy Book and Red Noses sales have helped our school community to come together to make a difference to others, in the UK and abroad. Thank you.
Some of our pupil jokers took to the stage at Assembly to share funny stories, knock-knock jokes, slapstick and one-liners. Thank you to everyone who took part and will receive a special Red Nose Day certificate next week.
Our P7 House and Sports Captains celebrated many recent pupil achievements and P7 Sports Captain, Robert, reported on recent runaway Cross Country success.
The Evening News took a photograph yesterday which is on Page 17 of today's newspaper and another photograph taken today will appear in tomorrow's edition.

Sciennes Fairtrade P4-7 Assembly 3.3.17
On Friday 3rd March we held a Fairtrade Assembly to highlight how paying a fair, minimum price to Fairtrade farmers can make a real difference to their livelihoods. Mr Hutchison is organising a Fairtrade Craft and Tuckshop on Thursday 9th March and will provide further details next week.
President Obama has encouraged the next generation to 'take up the mic' through his Obama Foundation and we are encouraging pupils to get involved in Red Nose Day by 'saying something funny for money.' We are mindful of our 1 in 5 Child Poverty Awareness project and so pupils need only bring a donation if they wish, rather than be sponsored. Pupils will be asked to share a joke, funny story, rhyme, poem or drawing with their class as part of our whole school Comedy Festival later in the month and we are looking forward to encouraging their confidence in performance and their Listening and Talking skills in a fun way. P7 pupils will soon be selling red noses in school and our P7 Comedy Book launches on 17th March. Please respond to the email you will shorty receive to place advance orders by 8th March, ahead of printing dates. Sciennes' parent Richard Melvin, comedian and compere at The Stand, has very kindly offered to provide comedy workshops for P6 pupils and we continue to use the BBC and Blue Peter resource "Comedy Classroom" to develop literacy skills through comedy. We are learning the new Red Nose Day song for Comic Relief and everyone who takes part in our Comedy Festival will receive a certificate.
P5 pupil Cole blew everyone away with his outstanding street dance skills and he gained deserved applause for his confident performance. We congratulated pupils on many recent achievements.
Sciennes Citizenship P4-7 Assembly 27.1.17
On Friday 27th January our Assembly theme was Citizenship with a particular focus on our Pupil Eco Group's recent and planned actions in school. We were delighted to welcome Kirstin Unger from the Parent Eco Group, who works so hard to improve our school grounds, planting with pupils and greening our playground so beautifully. Kirstin explained very clearly and engagingly how to take part in the annual RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch at the weekend. We look forward to hearing how many pupils took part and which birds were spotted.
The Pupil Eco Group agreed with Kirstin's suggestion at a recent joint Parent and Pupil Eco Group meeting to organise regular collections for loose play. Michael and Catie encouraged everyone to bring in pine cones next week. Faye encouraged classes to use the online Travel Tracker to record journeys to school and Ali reminded P6C that his class is on Litter Duty next week. We were excited to announce that Sciennes is one of ten schools to be selected for a new Eco Schools eTwinning project and we will find out more next month.
Barack Obama promoted Global Citizenship throughout his presidency and has now handed the mic to a new generation. The Obama Foundation http://www.obama.org has been set up to focus on developing the next generation of citizens and we aim to help all our children become Responsible Citizens.
We welcomed Lesley and Lorna to tell everyone about a new Scripture Union lunchtime club for P6/P7 starting after the February break.
Our Sports Captains celebrated pupil achievements and promoted the JGHS Appeal for small toys and pencil cases. Ms Anstruther has asked for donations of dressing up clothes to help us continue to address 1 in 5 Child Poverty. Pupils Bella and Emma came up with this great idea to help include everyone in dressing up days.
Classes will be learning about digital safety this month and we wished families celebrating a Happy Chinese New Year.

In Germany, she saw the Brandenburg Gate, Cologne Cathedral, and Fernsehturm. In Jamaica, Olivia relaxed on Reggae Beach, went down Dunn's Rivers Falls, and took a raft ride on the Martha Brae River. Her final destination was Zimbabwe, where she saw balancing rocks, animals at Matobo National Park, and Victoria Falls. Olivia enjoyed exploring the sights in each country and learning about their histories.

Korat Trip 2010
The document discusses life for people living in rural Thailand. It notes that they have few toys and games for children compared to urban areas. The roads in rural Thailand are smaller and unpaved without street lights. Many people's lives revolve around rice farming, working long days in the fields. Others raise livestock or sell goods. Villagers come together to build shared infrastructure. Buddhism and respect for the king are also important parts of rural Thai culture. Precision is valued as people make things by hand with limited resources.

Sciennes Junior Award Scheme for Schools 4.10.2019
On Friday 4th October 2019, we launched our Junior Award Scheme for Schools (JASS) for P6 and P7 pupils. JASS is a Duke of Edinburgh style award for 10-14 year olds and stemmed from an original idea by Sciennes staff! Today it is an international programme, recognising young people's personal achievements. Pupils can gain Bronze in P6 and Silver in P7 (with Gold achievable by the end of S2). All our pupils attending Lagganlia next week will gain accreditation for one quarter of the award, the 'Adventure' element. P7A Lauder pupils shared their memories of Benmore and what they are looking forward to at Lagganlia.
P3 pupils gave a presentation on their Harvest Appeal for Foodbank and reminded everyone that donations can be handed in to Class Teachers until Friday 11th October. P3 pupils will come and collect. Local Minister Stuart Irvin from St Catherine's of Argyll and a representative from Foodbank will join us for a Harvest Assembly next Friday.
Elika in P5 shared her amazing experience at the launch of the Sir David Attenborough Polar Research Vessel and P7 Rebecca announced this year's ECO Reps. It was a very difficult choice with over 150 out of 375 pupils showing interest in the 12 P4-P7 places. An indication of how important environmental issues are to our young people. Congratulations to Elizabeth who retains her World Stone Skimming Champion title and to all the girls who performed in an amazing ballet production of Cinderella by the Grange School of Ballet at the Churchill Theatre. P7A Lauder pupils led the singing superbly this week!

Sciennes Global Goals Week Assembly 27.9.18
On Friday 28th September 2018, we celebrated Global Goals Week for the third time since their launch in 2015. We looked at what action is already taking place at Sciennes to support the Sustainable Development Global Goals (SDGs) and how we can take further action.
We also spoke to the children about how they can help improve our school. This session we are trialling Learner Participation groups in P4-7 and we invited all children to take part in one of six school improvement groups, linked to our school improvement plan. Committees will be formed for each of the six groups who will meet with lead teachers throughout the year while the wider body of about sixty pupils in each group will meet together a few times throughout the year. The older children will also work with P1-P3 to seek their views.
Sciennes Global Goals Week 22.9.17
On Friday 22nd September we celebrated Global Goals Week with a look at what action is already taking place at Sciennes to support the Sustainable Development Global Goals (SDGs). We invited the children to design their own Global Goals glasses to reflect the world they want to see by 2030 and asked them to think about which actions they could take this year to be Global #Goalkeepers.
Our three P3 classes are taking action on SDG1, SDG2 and SDG3 by leading a whole school Harvest Appeal in support of the charity 'Send A Cow to Africa' and a speaker will address both Assemblies next week.
This week, in Scottish Climate Week, P7 have been taking action on SDG13 (Climate Action) by presenting 17 000 consultation responses to the Scottish Government's forthcoming Climate Bill with Stop Climate Chaos Scotland and Friends of the Earth. Eco Schools Scotland invited Faye, Sorley and Lucy to participate as a direct result of P7A's work on air pollution last year with Mr Hutchison, Mr McKenna, Ms Christie and SEPA. The pupils cycled to Parliament from school to hand over the responses to Roseanna Cunningham, Cabinet Secretary for the Environment.
Newly elected P6 Junior Road Safety Officers (JRSOs) Lyall, Essie and Anna shared details about their invitation to a training session at City Chambers, designed to support them in their lead role this year. Lyall explained that there had been workshops and one was on air quality, as a direct result of P7A's involvement with SEPA last year. Essie updated everyone on the Hands Up Scotland Travel Survey they organised and that baseline information has been added to our Living Streets Travel Tracker. Anna shared that the JRSOs will work with classes to help them use the Travel Tracker again this year to track active travel.
Supporting the world's plan for sustainable development using the Global Goals will help us all stand up for rights and P7C pupils this week articulately explained their understanding of the UNCRC to the Minister for Young People, Mark MacDonald, at a special celebratory event arranged by Together Scotland. Many thanks to Juliet Harris and Liz Millerfield for organising a very special 'picnic' lunch for the children, in recognition of all their hard work with artists Joanna, Yonnie and Lyver in creating fabulous UNCRC artwork on panels destined for the Scottish Parliament.
There was recognition for Ms MacKintosh in successfully leading engagement with Maths Week Scotland and for Ms Christie in leading a uniquely innovative and adventurous programme of cycling for P6.
P4A showed their wonderful 'Resilience Role Model' posters and Anjalie in P4 was also congratulated on her terrific Mindset poster.
We reminded pupils that to stay safe they should come back into the School Office if the person coming to pick them up is delayed.
We look forward to hearing pupils' ideas for making a difference, at Sciennes, in the local community and beyond.

P7 pupil Isaac updated us on his 'Marathon in a Month' campaign with brother Reuben to raise awareness and funds for Asthma UK and explained how others can take part, to raise funds for Asthma UK, or for Sport Relief or simply just to participate.
Emily and friends in P7 told everyone about their Sport Relief Bake Sale on Friday 16th March at 12pm in the playground and P7 Sports Captains will continue to sell wristbands for £1.

We also spoke to the children about how they can help improve our school. This session we are trialling Learner Participation groups in P4-7 and we invited all children to take part in one of six school improvement groups, linked to our school improvement plan. Committees will be formed for each of the six groups who will meet with lead teachers throughout the year while the wider body of about sixty pupils in each group will meet together a few times throughout the year. The older children will also work with P1-P3 to seek their views.

Our three P3 classes are taking action on SDG1, SDG2 and SDG3 by leading a whole school Harvest Appeal in support of the charity 'Send A Cow to Africa' and a speaker will address both Assemblies next week.
This week, in Scottish Climate Week, P7 have been taking action on SDG13 (Climate Action) by presenting 17 000 consultation responses to the Scottish Government's forthcoming Climate Bill with Stop Climate Chaos Scotland and Friends of the Earth. Eco Schools Scotland invited Faye, Sorley and Lucy to participate as a direct result of P7A's work on air pollution last year with Mr Hutchison, Mr McKenna, Ms Christie and SEPA. The pupils cycled to Parliament from school to hand over the responses to Roseanna Cunningham, Cabinet Secretary for the Environment.
Newly elected P6 Junior Road Safety Officers (JRSOs) Lyall, Essie and Anna shared details about their invitation to a training session at City Chambers, designed to support them in their lead role this year. Lyall explained that there had been workshops and one was on air quality, as a direct result of P7A's involvement with SEPA last year. Essie updated everyone on the Hands Up Scotland Travel Survey they organised and that baseline information has been added to our Living Streets Travel Tracker. Anna shared that the JRSOs will work with classes to help them use the Travel Tracker again this year to track active travel.
Supporting the world's plan for sustainable development using the Global Goals will help us all stand up for rights and P7C pupils this week articulately explained their understanding of the UNCRC to the Minister for Young People, Mark MacDonald, at a special celebratory event arranged by Together Scotland. Many thanks to Juliet Harris and Liz Millerfield for organising a very special 'picnic' lunch for the children, in recognition of all their hard work with artists Joanna, Yonnie and Lyver in creating fabulous UNCRC artwork on panels destined for the Scottish Parliament.
There was recognition for Ms MacKintosh in successfully leading engagement with Maths Week Scotland and for Ms Christie in leading a uniquely innovative and adventurous programme of cycling for P6.
P4A showed their wonderful 'Resilience Role Model' posters and Anjalie in P4 was also congratulated on her terrific Mindset poster.

They cleverly suggested that school could keep a 'dressing up' box of costumes for pupils to borrow and their idea was awarded £250! Ms Anstruther invited everyone to donate any unused costumes to school to add to the collection for borrowing. We were absolutely delighted when Pattie announced that P6B pupil Asma's poster, highlighting 1 in 5 Child Poverty, has been selected as overall winner and will be used in campaign literature throughout Edinburgh!

Sciennes Clean Air Day 18.6.2021
Due to staff absence, this week’s Assembly on Friday 18 June was emailed to classes. The focus was on Clean Air Day and marked five years of Sciennes’ support for the campaign. We had been pencilled in for a visit from the new Environment Minister, Mairi McAllan, yesterday but unfortunately she had conflicting engagements. Our P7 Captains were presented with a Clean Air Day bag from John Bynorth at Environmental Protection Scotland as a thank you for their contribution to the successful campaign launch in May. Mr Hutchison’s P4A class received colouring books in recognition of his support since we launched the first Clean Air Day at Sciennes with former Environment Minister Roseanne Cunningham. The children have campaigned for clean air in surrounding streets and for closure of Sciennes Road outside the school through the Living Streets initiative, as well as learning about how air pollution can affect everyone’s health both here and abroad. P3 pupils Poppy, Makeda and Ella gave a presentation on how they are helping the Homeless and how they want to change the world!
Sciennes SDGs 11.6.21

P6C came up with some amazing ideas to support refugees and help countries deal with COVID-19.
This year, our ECO Team has been focusing on three main topics: Litter, Life Below Water and Climate Action. P4 reps are currently following up on their recent fact-finding mission with Mr Scott. They have decided to make signs to help us all recycle using the correct bags and bins. Today, P7 Rosa Mellanby gave a rousing call to action in reducing single use plastic (which can end up in the oceans). She asked everyone to boycott plastic straws – in school and at home. P6 pupils Ellie Napier, Vatanda McColl and Gracie Kirk prepared a presentation on Palm Oil. Vatanda was absent today so Ellie and Gracie broadcast live at both Assemblies. They were so knowledgeable, articulate and passionate about raising awareness of the problems of palm oil use and making suggestions for change. Thank you to all our ECO Reps for working so hard this year with Miss Wittland and Ms Gallagher and thank you to Ellie, Grace and Rosa for presenting so well today.

Sciennes Deaf Awareness week 7.5.21

Our P4 and P7 Equalities Advisors produced their own signing videos to share at Assembly. Unfortunately, we experienced technical difficulties which forced us to abandon the live P1-3 Assembly broadcast which was hugely disappointing. We managed to get operational for the P4-7 Assembly and gave some information about deafness and hearing impairment and shared the story of Helen Keller’s life and amazing achievements. We will broadcast the Assembly to P1-3 on Monday and will first make sure all is working well in cyberland!

Mr Hunter asked pupils to remind families about the road closure at drop off and pick up times. We look forward to our first Cycle to School Day of the year next Friday 30th August and thank P7 Class Teacher Miss McGrouther for organising.

Sciennes Talk Things Over Launch Assembly 31.5.2019
This document summarizes a school assembly about building resilience and talking through worries. It discusses how worries can spiral if not addressed and provides tools to help cope, including asking for help from others, focusing on the present, and talking through worries. It suggests writing down worries and throwing them away. The assembly encourages talking to others you trust to feel better and see things from other perspectives. It emphasizes that while bad times feel endless, they will pass and good times will return.
