Celebration of Achievement
It was our annual Celebration of Achievement service last week, an afternoon devoted to celebrating all of our pupils. Class DREAM awards, Science Fayre awards, art awards, STEM Young Leader awards, Sports Day winners, House winners and our prestigious Primary 7 DREAM pupil award. A huge well done to every single pupil for their hard work this year, we are so proud of you all.
Summer Disco
We danced the night away at our Summer Disco! Everyone looked amazing as we played party games, busted out our best dance moves and celebrated our wonderful Primary 7s. What way to round up the year!
Transition Visits
On Monday 9th June our whole school made the trip to St Mary’s. It was great to have staff and children in the building and they were all a credit to our school whilst out and about in the community.
On Tuesday 10th June our whole school participated in a transition afternoon. Most classes met with their new teachers and spent time with all of the children who will be in their class next session. It was a HUGE success!
Science Fayre 2025
Our first Ravenswood Science Fayre was a huge success! We are so incredibly proud of the effort Primary 6 and Primary 7 pupils put into their personal Science projects. The displays, demonstrations, presentations, experiments and confident explanations were just phenomenal! We can’t wait to celebrate our Science learning at Celebration of Achievement, our first Scientific awards celebration in Ravenswood’s history!
Thank you to parents and carers who supported our learners with this event, it is greatly appreciated.
We look forward to making this a yearly event on our calendar!
Sports Day, 2025
We had our first Sports Day held at our MUGA last Friday! Sapphire, Emerald and Ruby Houses all unleashed their competitive sides as we worked in our teams to complete numerous potted sports challenges such as long jump, javelin, basket ball throw, curling and lots more! We then got our running shoes on and competed in class races.
Everyone had a great time in the sunshine, as we were cheered on by our loved ones. All pupils tried their best and certainly did their House proud. However, there could only be one winner and this year the winners of the Sports Day trophy were…*Drumroll*…RUBY!!!!!
A HUGE well done to all!
World Book Day, 2025
We had the best time celebrating World Book Day! Our school was a sea of Harry Potters, Maltidas, pirates, princesses, Mad Hatters, aliens and lots more. We celebrated all things books as we took on the Masked Reader challenge, shared our favourite stories, took part in a ’round robin’ read and had lots of DEAR (Drop Everything and Read) time.
