P7 Leavers’ Events June 2015

P7 Leavers’ Beach Party, The Knights of St Columba

Thursday 11 June, 7-9pm

Our P7 leavers’ beach party will take place in the main hall of Knights of St Columba and will run from 7-9pm. One of our parents, Mr McClean will be DJ and Alex Graham Caterers will be provide burgers, wedges and ice cream The school will provide drinks.

This event is informal, and the focus is very much on the children relaxing and having fun together.

We have planned this special event to ensure that parents/carers do not have any additional expense. We also want to create an experience that includes everyone and therefore, we respectfully ask that children come dressed casually, not formally. We discourage the hiring of limousines for the same reasons.

Each pupil must be collected by an adult from the venue at 9.00pm.

 P7 Graduation Ceremony, Glenmanor Primary School Hall

Friday 19 June, 1.30pm-2.30pm

We would like to invite our P7 parents and carers to join us for this very special event. Doors will open from 1pm and the graduation will begin at 1.30pm.

The graduation will feature a presentation by the P7 pupils followed by the presentation of school cups.

P7 pupils have planned a very ambitious modern programme to show off their talents including singing, acting and dancing. There are also a few surprises too.

Our invited guests will then present the school cups in recognition of outstanding achievement in 6 categories – Effective Contributor, Confident Individual, Responsible Citizen, Successful Learner, Outstanding Sports Person and Exceptional Team Player. All members of staff have voted to select the recipients of each school cup.

The graduation will last until approximately 2.30pm when our infant choir will sing and light refreshments and snacks will be served in our community garden, weather permitting.

K’nex West of Scotland Final 10 June 2015

Beth and Jack participated in the West of Scotland K’nex Challenge at University of Glasgow today.  We were first to arrive at the beautiful Hunter Halls so we helped the organisers set up the equipment. The challenge today was to create a fork lift truck. Our team achieved the brief and were pleased with their results.

Unfortunately we were not placed this time but we were delighted to find out that Beth and Jack had reached the top 26 of 8266 pupils who participated in the challenge! 254 schools entered and only 13 schools were represented in the West of Scotland final today. Well done to our team who celebrated with an ice cream!

Congratulations to the winning team from Lainshaw Primary, East Ayrshire and the runners up from Newington Primary, Dumfriesshire!
