Young Gardeners at Work.
P1-4 have been sowing vegetable and flower seeds indoors this term. We will plant them outside after the risk of frost has passed. We have planted Sweet Peas, Peas, Tomatoes, Pumpkins and Lettuce seeds.
Pot of Gold
Hannah and Lilian have earned their Pot of Gold badges at Rainbows. Well done.
Well Done Douglas

The eclipse
We were out for the eclipse on Friday and managed to experience how it got cooler and darker. Thanks to Mr Davies for some of these lovely pictures.

Cross Country at Lochmaben
Our P4-7 pupils took part in the annual Cross Country Competition at Lochmaben. All did their best and represented the school well. We also managed to win some medals and trophies, well done to:
P4/5 Small Schools girls first place, Sarah
P4/5 Small Schools girls team first place, Sarah, Molly and Aiva
P4/5 Small Schools boys team first place, James C, Douglas and Daniel
P6/7 Small Schools girls first place, Emily
P6/7 Small Schools boys second and third place Adam and Mark
P6/7 Small Schools girls team first place, Emily, Saskia and Anya
P6/7 Small Schools boys team first place, Adam, Mark and James M
Emily also received a shield for Most Meritorious Performance, which is the second time a pupil from this school has been awarded the prize. Very well done.
The pupils did well due to the hard work they put in during preparation and learned a valuable lesson in life: effort during preparation = results.
Thanks to Mrs Mannall, Mrs Foster and the team for another well ran event.
There are some lovely pictures on Annandale & Eskdale Active School and Community Facebook page here.
