Piggy Sports Day

Hello there! Well, we’ve had a very busy week here at Longhaugh P1.

We had our interhouse sports this week. We have 4 houses at Longhaugh Primary School, Mains, Dudhope, Claypotts and Broughty. We are all allocated a house and throughout the year we get house points for achievements, hard work and doing kind and thoughtful things etc. At the end of the school year we always have an interhouse competition. We all wear our house colours and cheer on our teams. This year, unfortunately, you can’t really see our colours as it was a rather chilly day and some of us had our coats on! We managed to have great fun though and we will find out which house won the championship next week!

              

              

We also had our whole school green trip this week. This is a trip to acknowledge all the boys and girls who have worked hard and behaved really well all year. We were all really looking forward to having a day at Camperdown Park but unfortunately the wonderful scottish summer got in the way and it rained most of the day!! Mr Munro and Mrs Jenkins didn’t want us to be disappointed so they managed to book the Odeon cinema and we all went to see The Croods. We all had a great time….thank you very much Mr Munro and Mrs Jenkins!

              

The weather started to brighten up just before lunch and we were lucky to be able to have our sports in the afternoon. We didn’t have time to get through all our races but we all did really well on the races we managed to complete.

              

             

On Friday we had our Piggy sports day with the nursery. We had been practising all the sports and we had made lots of piggy snouts ready for the nursery coming. On the day we all had our jobs to do at each station and we explained the activities and helped all the nursery boys and girls do the right thing. We had our p6 buddies there to help us with the scoring. We had a great time and at the end we all got an ice lolly. Yum!

  

  

  

As Fathers Day is this Sunday we all made cards to celebrate the dads, grandads, step-dads and uncles we have in our lives. We had to carefully colour, paint and cut out to make this fantastic card. We’re sure all the dads/grandads will love it!
