Parents of P7 were invited to observe and participate in a gymnastics lesson.

Pupils have developed their gymnastic skills during the first term and were able to demonstrate their learning at 6 different stations.

Demonstrating safe jumps and flips from the large horse, rolls and jumps on the low horse, freedom of expression and movement across the wall bars, various ways of balancing along the beam, 5 point sequences on the floor mats (incorporating starting/ending positions rolls, balances, jumps…etc) and an observation and reflection station where pupils responded to their peers ideas and performances.

The afternoon proved very successful with pupils keen to show off their skills, and some brave parents participating!

In October, 24 children from Primary 6 took part in a rugby tournament at Fort Matilda Park in Greenock. The children had been taught the rules of the game over a 4 week period before the tournament. This was their chance to show off their skills on the rugby pitch. The children were a credit to the school with their excellent behaviour and their good sportsmanship.
