Sports Day Fun in the Sun
The sight of the summer sun has been a welcome one over the past few weeks, and we were delighted that the sun shone on us again for the Nursery Class Sports Day this week. Have a look through our photos and you can see just how much our children enjoyed the day, as well as how active they were! It was wonderful to see so many adults come along to cheer on the children, and to join in the fun during the Mums’ Race and Dads’ Race!
The Sports Day allows our P6 pupils and Nursery Class children the chance to work together, strengthening bonds between our school pupils and our pre-school group before they come together as Buddies at the beginning of the new school session.
Mrs McCulloch would like to say an enormous thank you to Mr Griffin and P6 for organising and running the event, to the Nursery staff, to the visitors who came along to watch and of course, most importantly, to the children for giving it their all!
Mrs McCulloch would also like to thank John Wilson photography for taking the official photographs on the day, which will be added to the website in the near future.
What a great day!

A Roaring Great Topic!
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:
- Fossil finder
- Shadow puppets
- Pin the Tail on the Dino
- Gift shop
- Dino Bite Café
- Gallery
- 3D egg display
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.

Wear Yellow Walk
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.

Beat the Street
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:
- Taking part in the challenge enthusiastically outside of school
- Reporting broken Beat Boxes and keeping school staff up to date on responses
- Committing to the spirit of the initiative both in and out of school
- Being a role model for others during whole school walks
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!

Topictastic Assembly!
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!

Assembly with a Twist!
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’s Wonderful Weather Assembly!
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!

Awesome Assembly!
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!
