A huge well done!

It has been fantastic seeing the amount of work being undertaken in the various Google Classrooms, and I know the staff have enjoyed interacting online!

Try your best to establish some routines within the day, and under no circumstances feel pressured into completing all the work set each day-  they are suggestions for what could be completed at home.

We are all in this together, so if there are any questions, leave them within the Google Classrooms and staff will answer asap.

It is at times like this that we really see how close the Busby Primary School Community is…… we are in this together!

Community Engagement

Today saw democracy in action at Busby Primary School.  Busby Community Council are raising funds to carry out improvements to the children’s play area at Cartside Road.  Our pupils had the opportunity to cast their vote for one of the three different proposals.

The pupils were all very excited and took their responsibility seriously!

P6 Cluster Maths Challenge

Yesterday, a selection of our P6 pupils had the opportunity to compete in the annual Williamwood P6 Cluster Maths Challenge.  The pupils were put into mixed teams, and worked alongside their peers from Carolside and Netherlee.  They were challenged by a variety of different stations, undertook the 12 Card Challenge and completed in the ever-popular Maths relay.

Much fun was had by all, and the pupils maths knowledge was definitely evident.  Special congratulations must go to:

Harris, Jennifer and Erin, who finished in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd finishing teams!

Active Schools’ Football

Following an exciting train journey yesterday afternoon, Busby was ably represented in the first of this year’s Active Schools’ Football events.  Our pupils had the opportunity to pit their skills against teams from Giffnock Primary, Braidbar Primary and Thornliebank Primary.

A record of one defeat, two draws and a victory made for a successful afternoon and all pupils participating thoroughly enjoyed the experience!
