P3 have been learning about length in Term 3 and enjoyed using their hands, feet, measuring tapes and trundle wheels outside in the playground.
P3 Haggis Tasting
Back in term 3 pupils from P3 enjoyed Haggis tasting as part of their Scotland topic. They tried haggis, neeps and tatties along with oatcakes and cheddar cheese. The class then filled in a taste test sheet and the haggis was a winner!
P5/6 SYMMETRY
This week we have been studying lines of symmetry in shapes and in nature as well as learning how to create symmetrical pictures. We did some research on the Monarch butterfly which is a beautiful symmetrical creature and created oil pastel drawings. Using black and white card we also learned how to make positive/negative symmetrical pictures.

Nursery To Primary Transition Event
Our new Primary One children had great fun during our active Maths transition session. I’m not sure if the new P1’s or their buddies enjoyed it more. We can’t wait until August.

3 Former Glenmanor Pupils Perform at Area Head Teacher’s Meeting
The band ‘Midnight Sketch’ performed their own version of ‘Live Forever’ by Oasis at the Area Head Teacher’s Meeting today, held in Chryston High School. I was delighted to see that 3 out of 4 of the girls were former Glenmanor pupils, Emma, Georgia and Hannah, who played while Hayley (formerly Stepps PS) sang beautifully. Well done!
I spoke to the girls about how the band was created. Hayley explained that she had worked with Emma to write their own songs and their music teacher, Mr Drysdale, had suggested that they form a band by recruiting and drummer and a pianist. They asked Georgia and Hannah to join them and they formed the band ‘Midnight Sketch’.
They have performed at Chryston High Talent Show and Chilterns Rest and Retirement Home. They will perform at Chryston High Summer Concert on 16 June and I have invited them to perform at our Summer Service on 24 June.
We look forward to seeing and hearing you soon!
