There was red as far as the eye could see today as our pupils bedecked themselves in this bright, bold colour to show their support for Red Nose Day.
Our house captains quickly sold out of this year’s stylish red noses.
Everyone enjoyed outdoor maths with a silly theme as part of Fresh Air Friday. There was a grand welly toss tournament in each class. The children had to apply their measuring skills, appropriate to their age, to calculate who had thrown the welly the farthest. The younger class used wooden sticks cut to 1 metre and 2 metres by Mr Harbottle, to provide a handy guide for estimating and measuring. The upper class used a combination of a trundle wheel and a measuring reel to measure accurately. The winners were as follows:
- P1 – 4 Winner: Jenna McKinnon (11m throw)
- P5 – 7 Winner: Ruby Rankin (15m throw)
There was a wee treat at lunchtime from Kim in our kitchen – Red Nose Day themed cupcakes, yum!
Next up was our Port’s Got Talent show. Our house captains introduced the event and explained the running order for the show.
The audience was entertained with a a dance performance by a large group entry from Alba, Ava Lily, Izzy, Lilly, Ruby & Maya. Lacey told jokes to entertain everyone. We popped outdoors for our next three acts. Harry demonstrated his golfing skills, Adam showed us his flair for scoring goals and Stephen hit some cracking tennis shots. It was a tough decision as to who would win, but the dance troop was given 1st prize for their X-Factor worthy dance rendition. Well done to all those confident individuals that entered.
And last, but by no means least, we give you Mrs Henry!
Thank you to everyone who contributed and helped make our Red Nose Day so special!
