Olympic displays

If you didn’t get the opportunity to visit the school during this term please browse the images for a view of the creative and inspiring work generated by the pupils.

The pupils in Primary 3 and 3/4 shared the sights and iconic images of London. Primary 5 focused on the Olympic rings and our 2012 mascots. Primary  6 used straws to create the athletes in action and Primary 7 used Tiffany as their inspiration for their olympic value.

  Kirsty and Kirky under went a transformation.#

Kirsty was all ready for her holidays to Japan our Olympic country and Kirky was a red, white and blue supported – GB all the way!

Olympic torch procession

We were all geared up and ready to show our support for Team GB and welcome the torch to Killie! We headed out all together as a school community and shut up Kirkstyle for the event. The pupils waved, cheered and waited in anticipation of the torch arrival on Hurlford Road.

Cailtin made sure she had the best view and came decorated to shout hooray for the torch.

Lining the streets

 

All the pupils waited in anticipation of the torch, they kept the members of the public entertained and every bus, lorry, car and taxi that went past got a cheer as they built up their steam for the procession.

Nursery visit – Scooter

Last visit to school before the holidays was all about scooter skills and parachute games. Mr Gary Seymour our Active Schools Coordinator and Mrs Diane MacKinnon Head Teacher along with Primary 6 volunteers helped the pupils float, balance, hide and run with our large parachute. The giggles said it all!

Greg and Taylor take a bow That was tiring.

Our new Primary 1 pupils have enjoyed 5 visits to Kirkstyle to start to get them familiar with the school community. Pupils in Primary 6 have visited Riccarton Nursery to play positive play games and then have helped with settling in during their visits. On one visit we were pleased to welcome Silly Jilly to zumbatonic with pupils and parents – if they were willing!
