This year Catrine Primary school have joined the Shoot to Saturn mission. This means we are completing active travel journeys in order to collect s-miles to power our rockets with enough energy to make it to Saturn.  Active Travel Journeys include walking, park and strides and using a bike or scooter to get from one place to another.

Primary 6 are this years active travel commanders. This means that we communicate with Mission Control to ensure we are on track with our journey. As active travel commanders, P6 set all pupils the challenge of designing their own rocket for our mission. Classes then exchanged rockets and voted on which rocket would represent each class.

Our winners were chosen today:

P1 – Miller

p2 – Ella

P3 – Lyle

P4 – Logan

P5 – Kacey

P6 – Poppy

P7 – Jacob

We cannot wait to continue this journey!

For a chance to win one of our festive hampers,

raffle tickets go on sale from Monday 2nd to Friday 13th December.

Tickets can be purchased via Parentpay.

Good Luck

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS HAS BEEN CANCELLED
