End of Term Celebrations 2018

Yesterday afternoon we had a triple celebration!

We celebrated the hard work our pupils have done all term, the retirement of Mrs McLean, and our P7 pupils moving on to Airdrie Academy, Braidhurst, and Hamilton!  We’d like to wish everyone all the best for what’s to come! Enjoy the next chapter!

These photographs capture just a fraction of the energy and the emotion from an amazing assembly!

We’d also like to congratulate Mrs Polatajko, who will be leaving us next year to take up a new role as Principal Teacher at New Monkland Primary – they are very lucky to have her!

Class of 2018!

Our P7 ‘Class of 2018’ have been celebrating the end of term in a few special ways!  Take a look at the photos below from our joint P7 Party with our friends at All Saints, as well as from our boys and girls’ recent End of Term Trip – which they funded themselves (with a little help from our Parent Council) through a wonderful Enterprise project, where they held a Fun Day for the whole school!

We will miss you P7! We hope you have just as much fun at High School!

2nd Annual P1 Race for Life

This afternoon, our Primary 1 pupils and their parents and grandparents joined some of our staff to take part in our second annual Race for Life, in aid of Cancer Research UK.  Our P6 Sports Committee lead our children and their family members in a ‘gentle’ warm-up before they ran over 1km, starting in our school grounds and then heading off through the park in Cairnhill before turning and coming back down to the school to charge across the finish line under the watchful eye of the glorious sunshine!

Our children and guests then re-fueled with some juice and biscuits before taking to the podium to collect their hard-earned medals.

With the help of our school community, our boys and girls have helped to raise around £1250 for Cancer Research so far! Thank you so much for your incredible support.

Mr Innes would like to thank the fantastic staff team and wonderful parent helpers for helping to make this event a success.  He’d also like to thank the dedicated parents and grandparents who came along to run with the children and to cheer them on!

Most of all, everyone at Rochsolloch would like to say well done to our amazing P1 pupils! Great job boys and girls!

School Sports 2018

This morning we had our annual School Sports Day, bathed in glorious sunshine! Mr Griffin and Primary 7 have been working hard over the last few weeks to get everything ready for our young athletes. Our children were split into house teams and they rotated around eight different events:

* relay

* hocket dribble

* rugby run and throw

* netball shoot

* boccia bowls

* basketball

* tennis

* obstacle course

We finished off the event with a fun parents’ race…and our parents weren’t competitive at all!

Our children had a great morning, and were suitably exhausted when they returned to their classes!

Thank you so much to Mr Griffin and P7 for doing such a wonderful job, and to our guests who turned out in such great numbers to support the children. Thank you also for the wonderful feedback given to our staff and pupils after the event!

Cheerio Mrs Ross!

Today we said a sad farewell to Mrs Ross, who is leaving us today!  Our nursery class and school pupils presented poems, songs and thoughtful gifts to Mrs Ross to show her how much all of her hard work at Rochsolloch over the years has been appreciated. Mrs Ross was also presented with a lovely gift from the school pupils and from the staff, as well as with a beautiful bunch of flowers from our Parent Council. Take a look at these emotional scenes!

We love you Mrs Ross, and you shall forever be part of our Rochsolloch family.

Young Authors Book Launch!

Over the past six months, three budding young writers from Primary 7 have been working tirelessly to plan, write, edit and produce their very own books! The tenacious trio thought long and hard about what makes an exceptional book, and tried to re-create the feeling they get when they read for their very own audience.

This morning, to celebrate their hard work, the children hosted their very own book launch in our Rainbow Room. They invited along their friends and family and put on a truly inspirational display. Each of our young authors spoke about the motivation and inspiration behind their book, as well as what they learned from writing their texts, before treating their captive audience to a reading from their favourite chapter.

Finally, the children signed first edition copies of their books for some of our lucky guests to take home. Some extra special audience members were also given souvenir bookmarks and posters to mark the occasion!

Mr Innes would like to congratulate our pupils on their incredible achievement.  Special thanks also to our supportive and encouraging audience of parents and friends, and to Mrs McGowan in our school office for making such an excellent job of preparing our books.
