Primary 7 athletics competition

Yesterday Primary 7 travelled to the Tryst in Cumbernauld to take part in the athletics competition with different schools from North Lanarkshire.  There were 15 schools there competing altogether.

We were able to use the skills we have learned in PE over the last few weeks to complete the different activities. In the morning there were field events and in the afternoon we completed track events. All our points will be added together and we will find out soon if we are through to the next part of the competition. Fingers crossed!

Here are some photographs of our day…

Primary 7 Athletics

This week has come to the end of the 6 week athletics block which P7 have been participating in. They have learned a lot of different skills in completing activities for their athletics competition at the Tryst next week, which involves many schools from North Lanarkshire.

Kenny, Melissa and Austen have been great coaches in helping us improve our skills.

Here are some pictures of us during our PE lessons.

Measuring with Primary 7

On Friday, Primary 7 had a lot of fun carrying out practical measuring activities.

We have been learning to measure length in mm, cm, m and km (although we didn’t have a big enough space inside school to measure a kilometre!!) We were able to use a range of resources to complete our measuring.

These included rulers, metre sticks and trundle wheels.

We made a list of the things we were going to measure then set off with our partners to complete the task.

Here are some photographs of our active maths lesson.

Oscar Afternoon

To celebrate the conclusion of their topic, P6 hosted an Oscar Celebration.  They screened the movies that they made during the topic.  They told the parents and family that attended all about their topic.  It was concluded with awards being given for a variety of categories.  This was a great conclusion to their interdisciplinary topic.

Queen’s Jubilee Garden Party

On Thursday the 24th of May we celebrated the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee by having a garden party.  We were blessed with a glorious sunny afternoon and so we changed into our shorts and t-shirts, put on sun cream and put on our hats (tiaras and crowns).  Primary 5 provided entertainment by singing their Olympic torch parade song.  We enjoyed refreshments of juice, oranges, grapes, melon and kiwi fruit.  The whole school spent time together playing games on the pitch, dancing, having a picnic on the grass and playing croquet.  A lovely time was had by all.

Scottish Day Celebration

On Friday the 3rd of February we held a whole school celebration to showcase the work each class had carried out during Scottish Week.  We invited our families along to share in this event.  It began with The Haggis being piped into the hall by Mr Mike Fitzhenry.  Four fabulous Primary 7 pupils then gave The Address to the Haggis.  Their performance of this set the scene for a great morning of entertainment.  There was a wide variety from each class with poetry, songs and plays.
