Many thanks!
Primary 5 are exploring the features of non-fiction texts this term.
P5E were showing that they could identify these features during a fun scavenger hunt. They were to choose a non-fiction book and stick a post it note next to the feature they found. Some groups were very quick demonstrating excellent knowledge of non-fiction text features.

Our P7 Athletics team participated in their heat of the Sportshall Athletics and competed against James Hamilton Primary, Whatriggs Primary and Crosshouse Primary. The team performed incredibly well and comfortably won the heat. They will find out next week if they have qualified for the final at the end of September.
Well done to all involved! Go Team Onthank!
Our P3 pupils have had a visit from ‘Try’atops the Growth Mindset dinosaur.
Tryatops has been encouraging the pupils to develop a positive attitude towards learning and to understand that making mistakes is part of the learning process.
Pupils are learning the importance of the word ‘YET’. Instead of saying “I can’t do it” we should say “I can’t do it YET”.
We want all pupils to feel comfortable and happy in their learning environment.
Over the next few weeks during our Health and Wellbeing lessons we will be facing some challenges and showing how determined we are to succeed.
P3W pupils chose a motivational phrase to write on the classroom pencils.

Our focus is on our Respect value this week and we look forward to seeing lots of good examples of respect being shown around the school.
