Today, we held our Summer Awards Ceremony. Two children from every class were chosen for a Sarah Warnock Award for endeavour throughout the year. Our Primary 7s entertained us with their ‘mash up’ song and were presented with an Uddingston Grammar tie from the Parent Council. It was an emotional day! Congratulations to all of our award winners.
The children in P4-7 recently had the opportunity to work in pairs or trios to create an Power Point advertisement for our school.

P6 and P7 have been enjoying social dancing, games and free-style dancing at their Christmas party. The boys and girls had great fun choosing their dance partners for the Gay Gordans, Military Two-step and Canadian Barn Dance. The teachers had a tough job picking the best boy and girl dancers – there was some slick moves, along with some questionable ones! 🙂 We hope the boys and girls had a
