As promised, we have lots of photos of the afternoon children enjoying their recent visit to Dino Park. Digging for dinosaur bones, the enchanted fairy forest, bouncy castle, the story of the “stinkosaurus” and many other super activities certainly kept everyone amused. Hopefully you can see by the lovely smiles that a great time was had by all. Thank you again to those parents who gave up their time to help us – it was very kind of you.

Dino Smiles
A trip on a bus, exciting activities at Dino Park and crisps and juice in the sun all add up to happy children and grown-ups. The super weather last week helped to make our trip to Dino Park a lovely end of year outing and everyone seemed to go home tired but happy. Thank you to all those parents who accompanied us – we appreciate your help. Here is a selection of photos from the morning trip. Afternoon photos will be posted soon.
Certificate Smiles
Last week’s award winners received certificates for wonderful singing and for super skills in P.E.. Congratulations to both of you – you worked so hard to earn your awards.
Daily Kilometre
Children about to move to Primary 1 at Hecklegirth have been developing their fitness with their Primary 6 buddies over the last few weeks. Initially they began by walking round the school field once and, as they have progressed, many are now able to walk three times round the field which Primary 6 measured to be a kilometre. Everyone taking part has improved the distance they have been able to cover so well done to all of you.
Thank You
Callum’s family left a comment re Eileen’s “Skills For School” workshop:
“It was very helpful. Thank you Eileen.”
We’re glad that you found it useful.
Great Teamwork
Like the morning children, the afternoon children participated in our Fun Activity Day with great enthusiasm. They worked well in their teams and displayed good skills and motivation to do their best. Thank you again to everyone who came along to cheer the children on – we all appreciate your support.

Medals and Ice Lollies
We would like to thank everyone who came to cheer the children on their Fun Activity Day despite chilly weather. We are sure that, like us, you felt very proud of them all as they confidently showed off their skills and great teamwork. Those medals and ice lollies were certainly well deserved and we hope that you enjoyed the day as much as we did. Well done boys and girls – you really were ‘confident individuals’. Thank you also to the ‘responsible citizens’ of Primary 6 and 7/6 who were super helpers on the day. Here are some photos from the morning event. The afternoon photos will be posted soon.
Fun Activity Day
The children have been practising their running and jumping skills to prepare for our Fun Activity Day tomorrow (Thursday). They have shown good teamwork and had great fun although at times, as you can see from the photos, we have had to have our coats on due to chilly weather. We are looking forward to lots of families cheering everyone on as they show you what they can do – we hope to bring the children on to the field around 9.30 and 1.30. Fingers crossed for sunshine tomorrow.
Wheely Good Day
Last week we had a “Wheely Good Day” when the school had a breakfast club for all those who brought their bikes or scooters, followed by fun activities for both morning and afternoon Nursery children as well as those in school. It was great to see that some Nursery children joined us for a breakfast of yoghurt, cereal bars, fruit and a drink and we were delighted with the number who brought their bikes and scooters to take part in the activities on offer.
Thank you to everyone who helped to organise this event and gave up their own time. What a great way to keep fit and healthy – the children had super fun.

Hecklegirth Adventures
Callum and Tobias (P6) seem to be having a great time getting to know each other. Callum’s family left a comment saying,
“What a great picture! Callum has been keeping us up to date with his adventures with Tobias”
Tobias also left a comment saying,
“It has been great showing Callum around the playground. Callum seems to be having a good time! Looking forward to our next adventure!”
It sounds like you two are building a great relationship.
