Humph the Camel!

Over the past couple of months, our P1-P3 children and teachers have been working round the clock to prepare a wonderful Christmas show – Humph the Camel! Having performed a dress-rehearsal for school pupils yesterday, our little stars took to the stage to put on a fantastic showcase of acting, singing and dancing for parents and friends this morning.

The show was a huge success and our children and staff are looking forward to taking to the stage again at 6.30pm tonight for their evening performance! The morning performance was wonderful, and we are so proud of our Rochsolloch family today.

Our show has been filmed this year, and DVDs can be purchased from the school, at a cost of £5.  DVDs will be ready in early January.

Our resident photographer, Mrs Cochrane, has taken these terrific snaps!

Christmas Lunch!

We got together with the children from All Saints as a campus family today to enjoy a spot of Christmas lunch!

The pupils had the choice of traditional turkey or steak pie, with some delicious sprouts, carrots, potato croquettes and sausages! The children followed that up with some equally delicious ice cream, chocolate cake or trifle!

There was a real party atmosphere in the room with beautifully decorated tables and Christmas music playing through the dinner hall!

We would like to say a huge thank you to our fabulous catering staff, P7 helpers and staff from both schools who helped to make this a memorable festive experience for our children!

Christmas Service

On Wednesday, we held our annual Christmas Service in the school.  Each of our classes, and the School Choir performed a range of festive songs for the audience in our packed gym hall!

As our pupils get more and more used to performing on stage, the standard of performance just gets higher and higher and higher! There was a lovely mix of traditional and modern songs: some very lively and upbeat, others slower and more reflective.

Mr Hamilton did a great job leading the service for our pupils, staff and parents, and he was ably assisted by several excellent readers from across the school.

Each and every pupil on stage did themselves, their school and their families proud.  It was a lovely way to cap off a busy and successful festive spell!

That Festive Feeling…

There’s a real festive mood in the air at the moment here at Rochsolloch Primary! Our P1 Nativity rehearsals are in full swing, our school choir have been practising for their performance at the Christmas Fayre this weekend, and classes are beginning to work on their Christmas service performances.

On Monday, our pupils were treated to a marvellous pantomime, Dick Whittington, courtesy of M and M Productions.

As you would expect, the children oohed and aahed as the performers entertained them with songs and action.
