P7 – Leading House Treats

Dunlop House Treat 

Dunlop House won the House Treat last month and the House, Vice and Sports Captains organised a sports themed treat afternoon to celebrate their success. 
They organised Just Dance and Parachute games in the hall. In the playground they set out resources and led a variety of games and activities for everyone to enjoy. 
The feedback from Dunlop House was very positive and they loved sharing their success together.
Well done Primary 7 leaders. 

P7 Football

Football Success

Well done our fabulous Primary 7 and Primary 6 football team. We continue to make progress together as a team and today we travelled to Loudoun Academy to take part in an inter schools  tournament and a friendly match.

We look fabulous in our Fenwick Team Strip.

Mr Houston complimented their team spirit, positive attitude and improving skills on the football field. Well done everyone! We are proud of you.

 

Primary 7 – Netball Tournament

Netball League

We were delighted to enter a Netball Team to take part in the East Ayrshire Netball League Tournament at the Rose Reilly Centre in Stewarton. We entered a mixed team of P6 and P7 pupils and were delighted to come in 3rd place.

We demonstrated teamwork, sportsmanship and ambition. Mrs Ross and Miss Jackson were proud of the determination and netball skills that the team demonstrated.

Well done Team Fenwick!

P7 – Learning Out doors

Friday was filled with sunshine and a day for learning outdoors! 

We went to the garden to read and really enjoyed using our new outdoor library. Everyone took time to relax and read for pleasure for 20 minutes.  Mrs Ross showed us the birds that had been singing in the garden while we were reading.

We then put our books down and played hide and seek together which we all agreed was a favourite part of our day – even the huge spider in the storage boxes that everyone hid in didn’t stop our enthusiasm. 

Next we decided to take our P.E outside and try out the cricket skills that we have been developing with Miss Wales.  After practising our batting and bowling we had a fun mini game. We definitely have some budding cricketers in P7! We used Significant Aspects of Learning (SALs) to identify skills that we could see while we were watching games from the side-lines. 

We are hoping this sunshine lasts when we visit Dalguise next week!

P6/7 Cross Country

Well done to our Cross Country Team who represented Fenwick Primary School  at the East Ayrshire Cross Country Schools Event last week. 

The team warmed up together, motivated  and encouraged  each other. They even made up their own cheer leading chant!

We looked the part in our Fenwick Kit! 

Each runner gave their best and ran with determination!  We were all incredibly proud of their amazing efforts. Well done everyone, what  a fabulous team ! 

 

 

P7 Bikeability Level 2

Cycling Scotland Bikeability 2

Primary  7 successfully completed level 2 bikeability after 5 days of cycling over the last month. Thanks again to Lynsey Murphy our Active Schools  Coordinator for helping Mrs Ross to deliver these sessions on the roads in Fenwick


Bikeability Level 2
  takes place on single lane roads with simple junctions and moderate traffic, after a rider has successfully demonstrated level 1 skills. Riders learn to make good and frequent observations, communicate their intentions clearly to other road users, decide on and use the most suitable riding position, understand priorities on a road and make decisions about when people wait and when people go.

 

P7 Leadership Training

P7 Leadership Training

 

Today we took part in a day of training to support us to become leaders across the school.
Blair came and share his knowledge of tennis coaching with us and we learned what makes a good leader, how to be a good leader and to reflect on the difficulties of being an effective leader.
We had lots of fun practising these skills in the classroom and in the gym hall.
Our next step is to put these skills to use and deliver some tennis lessons across the school.
