Photographs

The class photograph will be taken on Tuesday 23rd September. Due to 5L having their photograph time slot at 3:40pm, I would ask that all students wear PE kit to school. The class will change into their school uniform before the photograph to make sure everyone is looking their best!

Remember to bring full school uniform.

Welcome to the newest member of the class...

Form 5L went on a bear hunt today and found the teddy belonging to our class in Mr McGrath's office! Teddy definitely chose a good day to join 5L as we had delicious cake courtesy of Afonso who celebrated his birthday today. As a class we have to decide on a name for our friend therefore comment on the page titled 'Teddy' if you wish the class to consider your idea. 

'Should Scotland be an independent country?'

Deciding whether Scotland should be an independent country was the focus of the day. The class would like to thank Miss Macleod and Teresa (Form 12) for discussing the topic with Form 5. We held a vote and 12 'No' votes won against 5 'Yes' votes. It was interesting to read and listen to the debates from both campaigns and decide what we thought would be the best option. Well done to everyone for their contribution to the discussion. I await to see whether the decision we arrived at is the same as the people of Scotland...

Parents Information Evening

Thank you to all the parents who came to the information evening. I hope you found it informative and worthwhile.

If you could not make the meeting, a key date for your diary is April 13^th 2015 as the Checkpoint Examinations will begin that week.

Thank you.

Team Form 5!

Below are some videos that Miss Lee managed to take of Form 5 completing one of the rope challenges. Check out the 'Photographs' page for some great images of Form 5 in action! 

An interview with the Head Boy!

Congratulations to Antonio for his new role as Head Boy of the Primary and Barbara in 5B for her role as Head Girl.

Everyone in 5L is extremely proud of Antonio and know he will excel in the position. Miss Lee held a question and answer session with Antonio. Read on to find out what he had to say.

Q. Good morning Antonio! You have now been in Form 5 for a week, how do you think you have adjusted to being in the top form of the Primary Section?

A. I think it will be very difficult but I think that I can rise to challenge and make it a successful year.

Q. How did it feel when Mr Evans told you that you had been selected to be Head Boy?

A. When I was walking to Mr Evans office I was wondering what Mr Evans was going to say to me. When I got there I was very proud to hear that I was Head Boy and I thought to myself that I had came a long way during my time at OBS.

Q. Can you think of a challenge that you may face in the role?

I think that when I have to give a speech I may find it difficult as I may be a little bit nervous.

Q. What do you think will be the best thing about being Head Boy?

Everything! I am looking forward to the year ahead.
