There is always great excitement at this time of year with the many awards that are received by pupils for hard word, perseverance, resilience etc. Our first announcement is the new Head and Depute boys and girls for next session. Usually this is done at the whole school prize giving ceremony and badges are handed over by the outgoing out going pupil leaders, sadly this cannot be the case this year.
All staff at the school are asked to give their nominations before the final selection is made. Many congratulations to our new appointees.
Depute Head Boy: Cyran Alexander Head Boy: Cole Bickerton
Depute Head Girl: Alex Borthwick Head Girl: Iona MacDonald
The Drongan Nature Club potatoes were harvested at the weekend, unfortunately not by the children. The total harvest was 120 potatoes weighing just over 3.3kg. The largest potato weighed 155g while the smallest (and there were several) weighed just 1 gram. The average weight of a single potato was 28g.
Yesterday saw the Drongan kids taking part in Mrs Coulter’s Garden Obstacle Course – lots of great ideas – and Mrs Mitchell’s ‘Find the Missing Partner’ (socks). Lots of great photos and videos came in for the blog. Today the kids have been challenged to try Mrs Bradley’s Ball Bounce and Mrs Glasgow’s Welly Toss.
Grace made an underwater theme with the craft box that the school dropped off last week (donated by Coalfield Community via Helping Hands) Grace has dressed up to fit with the theme too.
Helping Hands bags of activities are all labelled for each Primary child in Drongan and sorted into streets, ready to go out on Monday! What a generous donation from the Coalfield Community to Helping Hands and the children of Drongan.

We’re lucky in Scotland. It’s a beautiful country with an abundance of wildlife. From otters to owls, swans to seals and badgers to beavers, we’re blessed with a rich, diverse range of wild animals. Challenge – research one of the wild animals on this page and create an animal fact file or PowerPoint presentation.
Kayden, in P1b, gathered coins from around the house and sorted them by value. He then used the coins to make the number of their value. What a great idea. Well done Kayden.
