P1a enjoyed exploring the force of pushing to make wheeled toys move. The children realised that wheeled toys move faster and further when pushed down a hill.

Dear Parents/ Carers,

Moodiesburn Gala Help
Glenmanor Primary School will have a stall at the Mooodiesburn Gala Day on the 11th June. The parade will start at the Knights of Saint Columba Club at 11:15 am.
We would like help for one of the games in our stall. See information below;
- Bottle raffle – A selection of bottle bags are placed on a table. Under the bottle bag there will be a variety of prizes from ‘good’ prizes – alcohol, smellies to ‘bad’ prizes – bottles of water, table sauces, etc. Each participant will get 1 shot for £1. They get a ‘prize’ every time – though that depends on what kind of prize!
Need: We need bottle bags and a selection of different kinds of bottles less ‘good’ prizes are needed as we don’t want everybody to win a good prize all the time!
Please hand donations in to the school office. Thank you.
Shorts and Shades Disco
We are looking forward to seeing all of our dazzling dancers at the Shorts and Shades disco on Thursday 26th May. See attached flyer for details.
P7 Photograph
Dear Parents/ Carers,
Just a reminder that the P7 will have their photo taken on Monday as part of their leavers gift. Shirts and ties please and get them to bring a hairbrush if needed.
Thank you
Online Payments
Dear Parents/ Carers
I have had a few enquiries from parents of P1-3 pupils asking if their child requires an online account if they do not pay for their lunch. I contacted the online payments office and they have said yes you should still go ahead and create an account. They said:
“Parents should set up their account, because although P1-3 get free school meals, parents will be able to see what the children have had for lunch. They can also add funds for snacks or breakfast club (if you have one). Also, when they are set up they will be able to use their account for school payments and it is one account if they have children in the upper school too.”
Hope this clarifies the position.
