We are all really proud of Macey for winning her dancing trophies.
At the start of term Room 5 created their very own new year resolution. The main theme which emerged was the desire to get fitter and healthier. As a class we have been discussing how we can do this by changing our diet and exercising more regularly. This wasn’t enough however… Room 5 wanted to make sure this was having an impact. We decided as a class to carry out a fitness test and record our scores. We will repeat this fitness test at the end of term and hopefully our scores increase! Check out some of our photos.

Jamie-Lee was presented with a certificate and medal for her excellent performances for Motherwell Girls Football Club. Her Under-11s team were undefeated for the whole season! Well done Jamie-Lee!
Room 10 made their own bruschetta using their own written instructions. Doesn’t it look tasty?
Today in response to Chloe’s letter sent to our local MP’s a site visit was arranged to discuss the road leading to Strathclyde Park. Pupils in Room 12 felt the road was dangerous due to a lack of pavement after the cemetery, during their recent visit to the park and wanted to do something to help.
Miss Law, Chloe, Gemma, Jack and Evan met with local councillors, Marina Lyle & Harry Curran and also Matt Costello – Local Regeneration Manager from North Lanarkshire Council to see what could be done about the situation.
Hopefully there will be news about extending the existing pavement soon.
We were delighted to be awarded with class of the week.
We took the trophy with us as we started our Road to Rio challenge and took some photos along the way!
In P.E. we were practising our badminton and netball skills. A very active and fund day 🙂
We are now an official Handball Development School. Look out for lessons and after schools clubs!
Great Work everyone!
Primary 6/5 enjoyed making Victorian Cheese twists on Monday morning. They have been learning about the Victorians and how they enjoyed this food as part of ‘Afternoon Tea’. We used this recipe as a focus for our writing lesson afterwards.
Food & Nutrition
What a tasty start to the week. We tasted four different kinds of cheeses. Some we liked and some we weren’t so keen on! Our favourite was Brie!
P.E.
In P.E. we have been learning new skills. We have been learning to throw and catch accurately. We kept trying even when it was tricky.
Literacy
We have been writing sentences using this weeks phonemes ‘qu’ & ‘ai’.
Health & Wellbeing
We have been learning about cookers and how to stay safe. We cook with the hob, we make toast in the grill and cakes in the oven.
