Our P5 boys played 6 games and won 5 with only 1 defeat.
Our P6 boys played 5 games winning 2 and narrowly losing 3 games.
Our P6-7 girls played 6 games winning 4, drawing 1 and only losing 1 game (a narrow 1-0 defeat).
Our P7 boys played 6 games winning 1, drawing 1 and losing 4 games.
All of our pupils had a great time, shook hands at the end of every game and scored lots of goals.
On Friday we had our second House Assembly of the year. At the assembly we were lucky enough to have 2 visiting Judo champions who spoke to us about the skills and attributes they had and worked on to become champions in their sport. The skills included perseverance, dedication and discipline.
After the visitors left Room 5 took us all on a journey back in time to the time of the Vikings. They told us all about what the Vikings did and their beliefs and even sang a song called Loki the Joker about the naughty god Loki who loved playing tricks on everyone.
Next it was time to find out who had won the House Points this time round. To start off we found out who had the most class points:
Dundyvan: 92 Rosehall: 56 Summerlee: 129 Waverly: 86
Mr Clark then handed out all of the Fantastic Awards to the pupils who have worked really hard in the past 2 weeks. Each certificate earned 20 House Points! Dundyvan (5), Rosehall (5), Summerlee (6) and Waverly (6).
Then he told everyone which house had won the bonus 100 points for good behaviour (Rosehall).
Finally, as the boys and girls sat waiting on the final result – Mr Clark announced the totals for all 4 Houses. The total points were as follows:
1st place: Rosehall (256 points)
2nd place: Summerlee (249 points)
3rd place: Waverly (206 points)
4th place: Dundyvan (192 points)
Well done Rosehall House and the running score now sits as follows:
Dundyvan – 2 points
Rosehall – 6 points
Summerlee – 6 points
Waverly – 6 points
Rooms 10 and 14 have been working hard on their topic of Space this term. As part of the topic they were asked to use chalk and design what our Solar System looks like on the playground. Have a look below at how they got on…
Room 3 were working really hard this afternoon on their new phoneme “ea” and their common words for the week. They all worked in pairs to test each other on the words and sounds and then they worked together to play a bingo game to find their common words. Well done Room 3!
We have all been working hard to make changes to our school grounds and work towards our next Eco Flag. With the help of Mrs McBain and Toni (Parent Action for Safe Play) our school Eco Committee worked hard to plant some vegetables at the front of the school which we will be able to watch grow before harvesting and using in some healthy recipes later on in the year.
Have a look at a short slideshow of our P7s from Room 14 presenting their knowledge of Space to the rest of the school. We also gave out the first batch of Certificates to 2 pupils from each class. Finally all of the house points were added since August with the results below:
1st – Waverly (4 points)
2nd – Summerlee (3 points)
3rd – Rosehall (2 points)
4th – Dundyvan (1point)
