Every Monday in the morning, just before break, P6B go ballroom dancing with Mr Robertson! P6A go before us and they have a lot of fun too!
We are learning the Jive and the Tango. We are all training for a competition in two weeks and we are all looking forward to it! (I think!)
This is the Jive!

After school girls cricket club is a cricket club for girls age P3 to P7. Its in the school hall at 3:45 to 4:45 on a Tuesday. It is organised by Active Schools Aberdeenshire and run by Neil Nichol.
We desperately hope new people join us for cricket as numbers are running low. At the moment there are only 7 or 8 of us and Neil wants to have a Gordon Primary girls cricket team. This involves turning up to training and cricket Matches. Please come!!!:)

Gordon Primary’s netball team played their first tournament in the games hall of the Gordon Schools yesterday. They competed against Alford primary School. It was a very exciting match.
The team is coached by Ms Crawford and Mrs Fitzpatrick every Thursday after school.
All classes at Gordon Primary visited the ALEC bus and learnt about keeping themselves safe and healthy.
The nursery children enjoyed meeting Harold the giraffe. They learnt about their bodies, and learnt where their ribs, heart, stomach and lungs were. They learnt about keeping themselves healthy by washing, eating well, sleeping and having plenty of exercise. They enjoyed brushing Harolds teeth!
In April 2013, a group from Huntly will try to climb Mount Kilimanjaro. Several members of the group are parents of children from Gordon Primary and The Gordon Schools.
Two of these members are using the adventure to raise funds for cancer research UK and Help for Heroes. These two are hoping to raise a significent amount of money for their chosen charity.
They are looking forward to their one in a lifetime experience and will fly out from Aberdeen airport on Saturday the 30th of March.
They are going to speak to the upper stages about their chosen charities and the climb itself at assembly.

In the Nursery they have been having some fun and games out in the hall. When we were through in the hall taking some photos they were playing duck duck goose. For some of them it was their first time. Everybody enjoyed it very much.

Jogging club started last week. A group of 16 energetic P6 and P7s are joining Mr Grey and Mr Wood jogging around the school grounds, the castle and Castle Hotel on Tuesday lunchtimes.
Our school sometimes holds clubs after school and in school times!
We really enjoy them and I am going to tell you about one of them:
The Cricket Club!
Its only for girls and its after school and its for girls in primaries 4, 5, 6, and 7.
Mr Nicol runs it and he enjoys it as much as the girls do!
They meet every week on Tuesdays and they have to be first to leave from school.
There is also a boys cricket club and a girl and boy cricket club but I am only going to write about the girls one.

Other classes also took the opportunity of working outdoors in the snow, making the most of the fact that the snow was perfect for making snowballs and snowmen. P4 and P3 classes went outside today to build snowmen. P4C worked together in their co-operative learning groups to build and name a snowman. One group made a snow horse. P4B decided they wanted a change from snowmen and worked together to build a snow dolphin and other animals.
