CURLING

On Friday  Primary 5 to 7 went to meet the ladies Olympic Curling Champions at Dumfries Ice Bowl.  We had prepared some questions to ask them. They brought their gold medals to show us.

Hammy was there from the men’s curling team and he brought his silver medal to show us. We were lucky enough to have a  go at curling and  we enjoyed this so much. They told us that  they had to train  very hard to  every day to get into the Olympics.

We all had a great time and  found the Olympian’s  inspiring . Some of us even got an autograph and some of us were shaking with excitement . Overall we were all so lucky to get the chance to meet members of the Olympics Curling Team.

Rugby on Tuesday with John Muir

On Tuesday 22nd of February we had a rugby session  with John  Muir from the Stewartry Rugby Club.

We did all sorts of games and skills to help  us learn about rugby. We had lots of team games to improve our dodging and passing . It was quite tricky throwing and catching the rugby ball as it is such awkward shape.

We are going to have 4 more sessions of this and Mrs Magee and Mrs Miller are going to do Rugby lessons with us on a Friday too! So  hopefully by the end of this block of rugby we will all be much better players.

If anyone is interested in joining the club speak to Charlie in P4 as he already goes every Sunday for coaching and matches.
