Sports Day, 2026!<\/h2>\n

We had a great time at our Sports Day last week. Our classes unleashed their competitive sides as they competed in a range of potted sports to win their House points. From basketball, to hurdles, football dribble, over under, curling and more!<\/p>\n

Classes then took on the flat races, everyone tried their best to get over the finish line with some even earning themselves a medal!<\/p>\n

Thank you to all of our spectators who cheered us on. Another big thank you to Tesco Cumbernauld for donating delicious fruit and water to keep us energised on the day.<\/p>\n

They have organised the ultimate reading challenge…the ‘Raven Reader’. Starting on the 2nd of February over the next 30 days children are challenged to read\/be read to every day for at least 15 minutes.<\/p>\n

Each day you complete you should colour in one book on the tracker below. The tracker can be printed, for those without a printer you can take a screenshot of the tracker and use ‘Mark Up’ tools within the iPhone Photos App to digitally colour. Once you have completed your 30 days please bring your tracker into school, or email to Mrs Whitton – NLRobertsonA@northlan.org.uk<\/p>\n
