Rotary Quiz

Last week Hannah Paterson, Freya Staddon, Alistair Johnston and Aritra Acharya all represented Gargieston at the annual East Ayrshire Schools Quiz organised by the Rotary Club of Kilmarnock.

Although they didn’t manage to win, they managed a very high score in front of a large audience. We are all very proud of you, as you represented the school so well!

Why not try some of the questions they were asked…?

What letter falls between E and T on a keyboard?

What year did the Queen and Prince Phillip marry?

How many degrees are there in a 1/3 of a circle?

How many time zones are there in the USA?

 

Right of the Month!

Our new right of the month is  ◊Article 7◊   and what a very important one it is!

“You have the right to a name, and this should be officially recognised by the Government. You have the right to a nationality (to belong to a country).”

We will be learning a lot this coming month about the importance of Article 7.

Why not share your learning with someone at home?
