A huge thank you to Mr Wilson (Jack Wilson’s dad) who joined Base 3 yesterday to teach us about the STEM behind flying. His presentation included video footage of the important procedures before flight. It was also very nice to see Jack making an appearance in the clips.
It was very exciting to watch Jack and his dad take off into the sky. What a brilliant hobby to have. Base 3 now has some keen flying enthusiasts.
Thank you again, Mr Wilson!
Please sing this nursery rhyme with your child at home and try out the Makaton. Singing nursery rhymes with your child will help them learn about rhyme and rhythm of language and assist your child to hear syllables within words this also aids your child’s ability to learn to read.

Following discussions with staff, parents and children we all agreed that we do not wish any child to miss out on an activity or trip because of cost. In the past Gargieston has received anonymous donations to support families who maybe experiencing some difficulties in covering the cost of school trips. If you wish to find out more information please do not hesitate in contacting the school.
Well done to Alistair, Sam, Jess, Orla and Ryan who took part in this event on Saturday. Lots of PB’s and congratulations to Sam for placing 5th in the 50m freestyle with a time that should qualify him for the Scottish Schools Swimming Championship.
Thank you to the P7 children who have volunteered to redo scenes from our play at the Kilmarnock District History Group meeting on Tuesday 28th November.
I would appreciate it if the children could arrive at 7pm at Ayrshire College on Hill Street ready to set up. Also, the children should come dressed ready to start. Parents can simply drop the children off, but are equally welcome to come in and join the meeting. Visitors to the group pay £2 on the night.
The meeting should finish at approximately 8.45pm. All children should be picked up inside the college, as it will be very dark and the children may not know the car park area well enough to walk round.
Many thanks,
Mrs Lawson
Primary 7 enjoyed an excellent visit to Woodward as part of their STEM fortnight activities on Flight.
After an interesting talk on what the company does, the children broke into groups for a tour of the site. This was followed by a break for water and snacks they provided and 4 activities based on what they had seen and told about.
It really was a fantastic visit and huge thanks go to all the staff at Woodward for making us so welcome!
