Handball Festival (Thursday 3rd December)
10 of our P4-6 pupils had a great time at the Coatbridge / Airdrie Cluster Handball Festival. We took part in lots of Handball games against other schools and scored lots of great goals too. I think we might need to start a new Handball Club with all of the enthusiasm that was shown.
P6 Technology Debate
We had a really good debate today on the influence of technology on society!

Bikeability 1 Training – session 3
This week in Bikeability the pupils of P6 and P7 were learning to cycle slowly with control around an obstacle course in the playground. They had to slalom and change direction and had to cover their brakes as well as focus on their balance.
Halloween Parade
Today we had our Halloween Parade in the afternoon where all of the boys and girls came into school dressed up in all sorts of costumes.
Each class moved around the hall in a circle to parade their costumes and the teachers had the unenvious task of choosing their favourite costumes.
Have a look at the amazing costumes below!
Coatbridge Cross Country Competition (trials)
Yesterday we had the trials for the upcoming Coatbridge Cluster Cross Country Competition.
Mr Gall and the P7s helped to set up a course around the school and asked anyone from P5-7 to come along in the afternoon to tkae part in the school heats. The first 5 in each race will then be entered into the Coatbridger Cluster Competition.

P6 / 7 Bikeability – Session 1
Yesterday our P6s and a few of our P7s took part in their first Bikeability 1 session with David the instructor. It took us all a little while to get our bikes sorted and checked and learn the “Bike M check” so that all of our bikes are safe to ride from now on. We also had to learn how to fit our bike helmets properly. David has asked us all to bring our bikes back tomorrow (Thurs 22nd Oct) so that a bike maintainence team can check over and fix any problems.
