RRS Meeting
This afternoon, the children, parents and teachers who are part of the RRS Committee met today to discuss important areas of our journey. Our meeting was very productive and a lot of great ideas were discussed. We are excited to put our plans into action.
The minutes of today’s meeting will follow in a separate post so watch out for it.
John Carmichael Memorial
Victoria Cross hero honoured with Glenmavis tribute
A stone commemorating the bravery of Sergeant John Carmichael was unveiled at New Monkland Church exactly a century after his actions to save his WWI platoon.
The dedication of the stone honouring Sergeant John Carmichael was attended by depute lord lieutenant Abdul Abid, North Lanarkshire provost Jean Jones, Neil Gray MP, great-nephew Tom Carmichael and pupils from New Monkland Primary. (8.9.2017)
Primary 4 and Primary 5 visited the John Carmichael Memorial today 21.9.2017. Primary 4 shared their learning about John Carmichael with Primary 5.

Settling In
We have been very busy in the nursery, with lots of new children joining us for their first nursery year. We are starting off this year by learning more about our Rights Respecting Nursery Charter and about Ollie the Octopus our RRS mascot. We are also thinking about ways that we can be more independent in nursery, by learning our nursery routines. Below are some photos of some of the other things we have been doing.
Diplodocus
This afternoon we have been learning about Diplodocus. We did some writing, played with some dinosaur figures and tried to make some dinosaurs from plasticine.
Ask your child some facts about the dinosaurs they have been learning about.
P7 – Harry Potter
Primary 7 decided on their IDL theme by taking part in a class vote. The winning theme was HARRY POTTER…
