February News …
Read on to find out about some of the things we have been up to …
I ran in a cross country race at the weekend. It was with Garscube Harriers at Maryhill Park. It was tougher than the last time I ran because there were a couple of hill that were really hard to get up. I got a gold medal for participating. Keira
On the February weekend I went to Harry Potter Land. It was where they actually filmed a lot of the films. I was so excited and it was even better than I thought it would be. We also went to the M&M shop, the biggest Lego shop in the world and the Nickelodeon shop. I got an M&M soft toy, a massive Gryffindor pillow and magnetic bookmarks from Harry Potter Land and I also got a Lego mini London bus. Thanks to my Mum and Dad for a fantastic Christmas present.

It was my birthday a week ago. I was really lucky and I got a phone. I got new gold trainers too. I got an iPad and a phone cake with the apps pictured on it! It looked amazing! I had a magic time. Gemma
I went to Ardgartan and we went on Night Line. This is where you wear black out goggles and you hold onto a rope and someone leads you though muddy obstacles. It was fun but also really scary. You had to squeeze through tiny little gaps and crawl through tunnels. Luckily we had helmets on! Jessica
I went to a camp with my church in Auchengillan. We did crate climbing and I managed to get to the top limit of eleven. It was lots of fun! We also did Night Line and after that we jumped in muddy puddles. We were soaking and really muddy – it was all over us and our faces! My Mum didn’t mind doing my washing! Carys
Me and my friends ran at Maryhill Park at the Garscube Harriers Cross Country Race. I came 21st. I got a medal for participating. The race wasn’t too hard but the hardest bits were the hills. At the weekend I also went to a Judo competition and I won a silver medal. I have a yellow and white belt in judo just now. Fionn
I went to my Gran and Papas for a sleepover on Sunday night. We went to see Sing at the cinema and then we went out for lunch. I really liked the film because there were lots of animals and they were singing really funny songs! Abbie
Yesterday I went to a hotel in Edinburgh. It had its own private pool and we went swimming. In the pool I was able to give my dad piggy back rides! It was for my Mum’s birthday and she had a nice time. Max
An absolutely amazing time with Google Expeditions!
Our virtual reality experience was out of this world!
Science
As part of our learning about buoyancy we were challenged to design a floating vessel which would hold as many cubes as possible.
We made our individual prototypes using only one A4 piece of paper and then came together in our groups to incorporate the best design features into our final group project. We were only allowed to use one piece of tinfoil and some glue and sellotape.
The winning boat managed to hold an amazing 373 cubes! Absolutely fantastic!
Well done boys!
Opera Singing!
For the next few weeks we are delighted to welcome Mr N Mann, a renowned Opera singer, who has very kindly given up some of his valuable time to teach the children before he leaves the country on his next world tour.
The children have been trying out different voice warm up exercises and have been learning to sing a piece of music that would have been regularly sung in court during the time of Mary Queen of Scots.

December News …
Last week I was at Lapland! I went by aeroplane and we had to do a few circles in the air before we landed. When I got there I wanted to jump in the snow but I had to get wrapped up in a thick snow suit first. Then I was able to jump in the snow! We went on a bus to get to Snowland. There was an ice slide that we went down but Mum and Dad didn’t want to. We met some huskies and we had a slide with them. We met seven reindeer and we saw their sleigh. I got to meet Santa! He gave me a dog teddy. It was really cold because we were in the Arctic Circle. There was a giant igloo that was like a huge maze inside. I had an amazing time! Max L
