All the parents and staff thoroughly enjoyed the P7 Leaver’s Assembly on Tues, 25th June. Their singing, dancing, acting and presenting skills were fabulous. It was lovely to see their enthusiasm and listen to their memories from their years at Sheuchan Primary. All the best for Stranraer Academy. Have a great summer!

Well done to Harry Greenhorn (P1) and Lily Steel (P3) for being our Infant Sports Champions and to Stepans Nastjuks (P4) and Kaci Allison (P4) for being our Upper Sports Champions. Super effort everyone!

The Sheuchan A Team received their shield today (26th June) from Kirkcolm Gala Day. The boys enjoyed worked hard to win it and were delighted to see and hold it. Well done boys!

All the boys and girls in P2 and P2/3 had a fab time at Dino Park for their school trip. They spotted various dinosaurs in the park. they took part in a craft activity in the Dino Den, donned a hard hat to explore the mine, pretended they were palaeontologists looking for fossils in the Dino Dig and even came across a very large Gorilla! To top it all off, we had super fun in the Treehouse Play Area.

All the boys and girls had a fantastic time at Glasgow Science Centre today (24th June). P3/4 and P4/5 watched a very interesting show called ‘The Body – The Vitals’. Everyone was very impressed with the energy demonstration at the very end. P6 went to the Planetarium to see Passport to the Planets.  After a quick shop stop and lunch, everyone got to explore 3 floors of science fun. Each floor had different science experiments to offer and engaged both adults and children. A busy day but everyone had lots of  fun.

After a few weeks of hard work the boys and girls in P3/4 finished their pyramids. They developed their skills in planning, measuring, cutting, co-operating, concentrating, creating and evaluating their designs. They all enjoyed their work and have discussed what went well, what was tricky and what they could do better next time. As you can see all their hard work paid off. The pyramids look amazing. They then researched what went inside a pyramid and made their own mummies, sarcophagus and treasures. Fabulous work everyone!

Unfortunately due to the rain Glenluce Relay competition was cancelled a few weeks ago. However, the P4-7 from Glenluce arrived at Sheuchan this morning to try again. This time the sun was shining. All the boys and girls really tried their hardest but unfortunately Glenluce just pipped us at the post to win the shield. Well done to all the boys and girls involved.

Today P3/4 had great fun learning how to use the green screen and software to make a video of themselves in their own Egyptian paintings. They said it was very tricky and challenging but they had a go and the results speak for themselves. Well done P3/4 for concentrating, co-operating, being resilient and having a go!

Sheuchan A and Sheuchan B played at Kirkcolm Gala Day on 15th June 2019.

Sheuchan A fought hard through the tournament and got to the final after a tense penalty shoot out. Again they were facing Belmont A (from last night) but this time they won 2-0 to bring the cup back to Sheuchan. The boys were delighted with their win. Well done boys!

Sheuchan B also played well and made it to the semi finals. Unfortunately they faced Sheuchan A and lost to them. But they should be proud of their playing as they were up against older boys/girls from P6 and P7 through out the tournament.
