Our Christmas Fair was held on Friday 1st December and again was a huge success. We would like to thank everyone who helped on the day. Lots of wonderful handmade crafts were on sale as well as some competitions – congratulations to everyone who won one of our competitions.
On Wednesday the 31st of May P5, P6 and P7 went to go yellow for the day. They did a 5k walk at Bellahouston park to raise money for the Prince and Princess of Wales Hospice. They played in the park, hung about with the mascots and played at all the activities that they set up.
There were also some animals joining in the fun! There was a horse called Spencer who was a famous Clydesdale and a highland cow with its little baby. Spencer was a very proud horse, he had chestnut hair, and white feathers on his feet. He was there with his owner who was talking to all the children about how hard looking after horses were and the responsibility’s of looking after them. The highland cows were making funny noises. When we left we shouted “GOODBYE!” and the mother cow made a great big “MOOOOO” and everybody laughed.
Near the end of the day there was a mascot race with the winner being a blue bird, then a little while later there was a mascot dance off then the winner of that was Champ The Chimp then there was free time for people to go up on the stage to dance sadly when Cleeves was just about to go up we had to leave.
It was a great day and we all had lots of fun!!
Today in P7/6 we have designed and made special Easter egg cookies to celebrate the start of the holidays.
We would like to say ‘thank you’ to everyone who came along to the upper and lower school Easter Celebrations yesterday. A special thank you to Ellis for introducing each class and to P3 for telling us the Easter story.
We hope everyone has a lovely Easter holiday and we look forward to seeing everyone again on Tuesday 18th April at 9am.
All of the boys and girls put in so much effort dressing up as their favourite character. Throughout the day the children took part in activities in their classrooms and then had the opportunity to take part in a ‘Where’s Wally’ scavenger hunt in the playground. Here are some of the highlights.
Some children made diorama’s with their families of their favourite scene from a book.
The boys and girls in P1-7 were treated to a wonderful performance of Aladdin by Hopscotch Theatre. Lots of fun and laughter was had by all children and staff. We look forward to seeing you again next year.
Some of the P6 and P7 children had a fantastic day at the cross country. The weather was brilliant! All the children ran really well and had great fun!!

The boys and girls enjoyed some very healthy and tasty soup this afternoon. The Health Committee were helping the ‘SNAG’ (Schools Nutrition Action Group) ladies to cut all the vegetables this morning. The vegetables came from our wonderful school community garden.
We look forward to some more tasty and nutritious goodies in the near future!
