Don’t forget that there is an In Service Day on Thursday 22nd May due to an election and the children are also on holiday on 23rd and 26th May. School will resume as normal on Tuesday 27th May. Hope the sun shines, P3/4!
The Science Centre visit – Journey Through Our Body
Our pictures from this morning’s visit
Science Centre treat!
The PTA have paid for a special treat for the whole school on Friday 16th May. People from the Science Centre in Glasgow will be visiting our school and I’m sure they will bring lots of interesting and exciting things for everyone to investigate. P3/4 will be going down to the gym hall, along with P3, between 11am and 12 noon. Pics to follow…….
Stirling Castle Trip
We had a fantastic day. John the jester was so funny and told us lots of funny stories about his master, King James V. We practised juggling, mastering the Diablo and even spinning plates. The adults tried hard too! The weather was really good – no rain!
Three members of the castle staff commented on the good manners and behaviour of the children. I am very proud of them. They are a credit to their families and their school.

P3/4 – what was your favourite part of the trip?
Stirling Castle – here we come!
Everyone is excited. We are off on our school trip to Stirling Castle tomorrow as part of our Knights and Castles topic. Keep watching our blog for the photos…….
North Lanarkshire Food Bank

-
-
Exhausted children by the end! 
- All done!
- The bags were VERY heavy!
-
- We sorted them and boxed them.
-
- And the bags just keep arriving…..
The children of P3/4 were involved in this initiative. They helped to sort, bag, box and eventually count and store all the generous donations. All primary 4 children were involved in an assembly to explain to others how the NLFB works. It was very interesting and lots of people in the school waglad to help by donating items.
Dress Up Day in memory of Mr McMahon.
We raised money for charity by coming in dressed up – Mr McMahon couldn’t resist a fancy dress occasion so it was a very appropriate way of honouring our janitor.
Football coaching
-
With the coach! 
- Chasing the ball…….
- In teams…….and raring to go!
The children took up a six week block of coaching, provided through the Active Schools Co-ordinator initiative. It was a great success.
Golden Time activities
Flat Stanley
Flat Stanley – our class text in the 1st term – was very popular. We created him and sent him around the world. The children waited patiently for all of the Stanleys to return from their travels to places like Spain, Mexico, Canada, New Zealand, London – he even made a trip to the White House in Washington DC!
