New House Shields Unveiled

Today we are officially unveiling our new House Shields which have been designed by children from all across the school.  After sorting through almost 500 entries the Pupil Council had the task of selecting a winner for each of our new houses: Craufurdland, Dean, Kay and Rowallan.

The Craufurdland shield was designed by Ailah in P2K who took the idea to use a castle design as the real Craufurdland Castle is near to where she stays.

The Dean shield was designed by Greg in P6M who used a deer design as he often walks his dog on the Dean Park and sees the deer which live there.

The Kay shield was designed by Lily in P7H who was inspired the Marie Curie Field of Hope at the Kay Park because it is such an important strategy. Daffodils symbolise hope and new beginnings.

Finally, the Rowallan shield has been designed by Breckin in OLC 3. The creature in the centre stands for powering  through no matter what happens. The blue stands for the Rowallan team with the mindfulness colours standing for calmness.

Each of our winners were today presented with an artist set as a prize for their hard work.

A huge congratulations to our four deserving winners and a massive thank you to everyone who took part in the competition.

 

House Shield Competition Update

We have had a fantastic response to our House Shield Competition and we are still receiving entries.  If you haven’t managed to get yours in yet, you still have time as we are extending the deadline to next Friday, the 20th November.

A huge thank you to everyone who has taken part so far, especially to those family members who have supported us with this.  Once all of the entries have been submitted, we look at organising a judging panel to see if can eventually decide upon four winners.  It’s going to be difficult though as the standard of entries has been so high!
