Rochsolloch Primary School and Nursery Class
Four P6 and P7 children took part in an inter-school badminton tournament at Wishaw Sports Centre on Friday 3rd June. 12 schools took part and after a hard fought play off Rochsolloch were deemed to be the winners on scores countback.
Go Team Rochsolloch!
On Thursday, P2/3 provided an incredible showcase of their topic learning by turning our dining hall into a dinosaur museum! The boys and girls in the class have absolutely loved learning about dinosaurs this term, and their learning has stomped its way across the whole curriculum.
Parents and guests were able to enjoy being led around the museum by the on-site tour guides, and were given the opportunity to observe and take part in some of the following exhibits:
Experiences like this bring learning to life for our pupils, and this is certainly a topic they will remember for many years to come. On top of some wonderful learning, the pupils were able to raise a marvellous £114.76 for Glasgow Children’s Hospital through the sale of hand-made souvenirs in the Gift Shop.

As you can tell, June is a really busy month at Rochsolloch Primary School! Today our P7 pupils were representing the school at the annual Wear Yellow Walk at Strathclyde Park.
The children collected sponsor money for St. Andrew’s Hospice ahead of taking part in the walk today. St Andrew’s Hospice employees have visited our school regularly in recent years, where the children have learned about the cost involved in providing the fantastic care offered to residents of Airdrie and neighbouring areas.
The class had a wonderful time in the incredible weather, retuning to school this afternoon proud and exhausted in equal measure!
Fantastic job P7.
North Lanarkshire’s ‘Beat the Street’ competition comes to an end tonight, and it’s fair to say that the pupils of Rochsolloch Primary School really got involved in this initiative! We’ve been walking lots both in school and at home, and we must be fitter than ever!
Our pupils understand that, while it was a competition, ‘Beat the Street’ was designed to encourage families to be active, to enjoy exercise together, and to be responsible when travelling in our local environment.
This picture shows some of our school winners, who were awarded gift bags for a variety of reasons including:
We are extremely proud of every pupil who has been active this month in supporting this initiative. Let’s hope the walking keeps up, even when the Beat Boxes disappear!
P1S put on a wonderful Assembly this morning, all about their class topic: The Tobermory Cat.
The children spoke, sang and danced, while giving their audience the message that everyone is special, just the way they are!
It was incredible to see how far the children have come since starting school last August, and it was clear that they had really enjoyed their learning. The class were confident and happy, and were a credit to their teacher and too our school, as well as to their parents of course!
Well done P1 Stirling, we all really enjoyed ourselves this morning and we certainly think that you are every bit as special as The Tobermory Cat!
Our Nursery Class is always extremely busy…have a look at what the girls and boys have been up to recently!
In the gallery below you can see a range of exciting learning experiences our children have been enjoying lately, including baking shortbread, investigating how germs are spread and even getting the train!
Looks like great fun!
The presentation from today’s P1 Induction is now available to download from the File Store.
Following their recent topic about ‘Scientists and Inventors,’ P4/5 and Miss Allan decided to host an Assembly with a twist! Parents and guests were invited along to take part in a terrific interactive Science and Technology exhibition, where the scientists and inventors of the future showcased their recent learning.
The pupils interacted confidently with their guests, and were able to explain and demonstrate a whole selection of wonders, much to the delight of their visitors!
This was a marvellous Assembly P4/5 and a great way to show off how hard you’ve been working!

P2 put on a terrific show for our pupils, staff and parents this morning, sharing their learning from their recent Weather topic.
The class shared a huge amount of information about what they had learned during their topic and surprised their audience with how many long and complicated words they knew and understood! During the Assembly, the boys and girls also confidently performed some wonderful songs and an excellent poem.
Following the Assembly the parents and guests were given a chance to view some of the terrific work that the pupils had produced during their topic. Great job Primary 2!
Recently, pupils from P6 and P7 took part in a Fun Football Festival at New Broomfield Stadium. The children thoroughly enjoyed their day, playing great football and scoring plenty of goals along the way.
The sun even stayed out all day for them…what are the chances!?
Take a look at the pictures of Team Rochsolloch holding their participation medals.
Wow!
Our new-look website has reached 5000 views! We hope you are enjoying being kept up to date on all things Rochsolloch.
Onwards and upwards!
Primary 1 Edinburgh put on an absolutely superb Assembly this morning, which was all about the Tobermory Cat. Learning about Scottish culture is a very important part of our pupils’ learning and it was clear that our boys and girls from P1E have learned so much from their Scottish topic.
It was quite incredible to see just how confident our young people have become, so early into their lives at school.
The children’s clear speaking, confident poetry recital and tuneful singing received rave reviews from staff, pupils and parents alike! A 10/10 performance!
We would like to say a huge well done to Primary 1 Edinburgh, Mrs Polatajko and Miss Kay for all of their hard work in putting on this terrific showcase of the pupil’s learning!
On behalf of the Pupil Council, our School Captain, Lucy, would like to thank all of the boys and girls for supporting our Dress Down Day for Glasgow Children’s Hospital.
We managed to raise a fantastic £295.08!

Congratulations to Eva, who was the runner up in the Airdrie Academy Cluster French Easter Poster Competition. Eva designed a poster, which demonstrated her knowledge of French Easter traditions and symbols.
Here is Eva receiving her prize from Mr Fannon, the Head Teacher of Airdrie Academy.
We are very proud of you, Eva!
P3 visited Amazonia this morning to round of their Outdoor Learning ‘Into the Wild’ topic.
The class explored the rainforest and were taught about the important role minibeasts play in keeping other animals alive! The children were then given the chance to hold a variety of creepy crawlies, and they proved to be much braver than any of the adults, who seemed much happier taking pictures! Finally, the children were taught an interactive lesson about the layers of the rainforest before taking a trip to the gift shop before heading home.
On leaving the bus, many of the children were overheard saying that it had been “the best class trip ever!” That’s what we like to hear, P3!
As part of their ‘Into the Wild’ topic, P3 were set a homework challenge. The pupils were tasked with coming up with a personal project, based on an animal or sport. The children were given the choice over creating a piece of artwork or model, a PowerPoint presentation, a poster or a written booklet.
Mr Innes really couldn’t believe the exceptional standard of homework that the children managed to produce. Great job children, and thanks to all the parents for being so supportive!
